Son Heung-min has revealed that he told his teammates ahead of the game against Fulham that Tottenham have a history of struggling after international breaks, making it clear that there should not be a repeat of the same on Monday.
Spurs went into the clash against Fulham as overwhelming favourites but it is the kind of fixture that Tottenham sides of the past have slipped up in just when they had started to build up some steam.
However, the current side showed that they are made of sterner stuff, delivering a professional performance to move two points clear at the top of the table.
Goals in either half from Son Heung-min and James Maddison saw the home side cruise to a 2-0 win, and the first-half display from the Lilywhites was arguably the best 45 minutes of football they have played this season, with Fulham unable to cope with the pace at which they moved the ball.

Heung-min Son explains his Spurs team talk
Son admitted that Tottenham should have put the game out of sight by the interval.
The forward told Spurs Play: “I told the players before the game, after the international break we always struggle and the team always struggles, always the results can change.
“I just wanted, Monday night, the fans, we just want to make them happy and with a smile on their face after the game, which we did and I think in the first half we probably could have scored three more goals.”
Spurs Web Opinion
There are already quite a few signs that we are going to be extremely difficult to beat at home and that teams will not enjoy coming to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this season.
Our away performances have been a little bit more circumspect at times this season and the clash at Selhurst Park will be a big test for the players as it is a difficult ground to go to.
