#2 Mousa Dembele is a vital part of the team
The Belgian midfielder was arguably the man of the match for Spurs. He completely dominated the midfield against some of the world's best players.
Every time he had the ball, he was confident with his distribution to the attacking players and was clever enough to complete some accurate dribbles through the middle of the field.
Dembele was involved in almost everything and the way he provided cover for the defence, as well as a solid platform for the attack, was a joy to watch.
The Belgian completed the match with a 100% tackle success rate and had an incredible 116 touches over the course of the 90 minutes.
This was one of the best midfield performances in the UEFA Champions League and Pochettino will have taken note of the significance of the midfielder in the team.
