From the source

Tottenham Hotspur look like a completely different team these past three weeks, and they are truly dominating the opposition. After six winless games to start the season, Spurs have now won each of their last three matches, and Roberto De Zerbi's vision of exciting, possession based football has fully come to fruition.

And better yet, Spurs are not just scrapping by their wins. Each of their victories over Coventry, Chelsea, and now Crystal Palace have been quite convincing.

There are many reasons why things are working out better for Tottenham, but at the crux of it all is the player De Zerbi wanted Spurs to sign the most and whom Spurs spent the most money to sign, defensive midfielder Sandro Tonali.
