Tottenham bounced back from a miserable Europa League defeat and in Giovani Lo Celso they have a player who could ensure a positive end to the campaign.

Spurs were beaten 3-0 bu Dinamo Zagreb to crash out of Europe with a 3-2 aggregate defeat to the Croatian outfit.

It was a result slammed as embarrassing by some quarters but the team must now focus and what the future holds.

Beating Aston Villa was a strong response but Jose Mourinho will now know that his team must finish in style if he is to keep his job.

Argentine playmaker Lo Celso could provide the spark that Tottenham needs in order to revive their flailing season.

He has missed the last 14 Premier League contests but played 66 minutes of the game against Villa.

According to Who Scored, the 24-year-old finished the game with a pass success ratio of 91.7%.

Of course, the international will strive to get better and he wasn’t perfect during his latest Tottenham outing by any means.

The 21-cap maestro has suffered a series of injuries since checking in at Tottenham and is still striving for consistency.

He has managed 58 appearances for Spurs, scoring seven goals and claiming four assists.

Even when Spurs crashed out of Europe he did quite well and he does provide the Tottenham midfield with something a bit different.

Mourinho could still have it all to do to save his job at the end of the season but having Lo Celso back is a big boost.

The challenge for the player now is to stay fit and if he does he could help the club claim a top-four finish.

Having the £70,000-a-week player back is a big positive and Mourinho must hand him a run in the team.
