Danso, who will join Spurs permanently for £21million in the summer, was probably the best of a bad bunch of visiting players on his debut, the 4-0 defeat at Liverpool in the Carabao Cup, and followed it up with another solid display in difficult circumstances as Postecoglou's side crashed out of the FA Cup with a 2-1 loss to Aston Villa.
With Postecoglou hopeful that Romero and Van de Ven will be fit by mid-March at the latest, Danso should have further opportunities in the next two to three weeks to bed-in to the team and potentially leave the manager with a difficult decision to make down the line.
Danso earned a warm ovation after being replaced on 78 minutes with a knock against United, shortly after he had demonstrated his impressive covering pace to race back and dispossess Rasmus Hojlund, and overall he looks a smart signing, capable of growing into an important player for Spurs.
When Solanke is fit again, as the club hope he will be in a couple of weeks, Tel may be better suited to returning to the left wing in the short-term but it is already easy to see why Postecoglou is so excited about the Frenchman, who is expected to join Spurs permanently in the summer.
Five players returned from injury, with goalscorer James Maddison and goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario starting and starring, and for the first time since early November, there were no untested academy players making up the numbers on Ange Postecoglou's bench.
