3 Things We Learned From Liverpool’s Win Over Fulham – Spirit Of Old Is Back

2. Lewis Holtby might turn out to be the best signing of January

Lewis Holtby

The sort of performances that Lewis Holtby has been putting in for Fulham will undoubtedly leave Tottenham fans scratching their heads in disbelief as to how come Spurs never played him consistently in a central attacking role. After his virtuoso performance against Manchester United in the weekend, he seemed to have carried on his form into this game.

He was superb in possession and tireless without it as he covered almost the entire pitch. His passing and vision were excellent as he picked out runners with long balls time and again on the Fulham counter attacks. While the final product may have been missing, he has shown enough quality in the final third to give Fulham fans hope of survival, and if he continues this level of performance throughout the rest of the games, he will surely be one of the best buys in January, if not the season.
