Vertonghen has always been a busy player on the field and has formed the core of Tottenham’s defense along with Toby Alderweireld. His clever interceptions have shut out the best attacks.
Vertonghen played a crucial role for Belgium in last year's World Cup and his experience has come in handy for Pochettino's side. Vertonghen will be a key figure for the Spurs in the defensive set up in the Champions League especially against teams who are quick on counter attacks.
