Hugo: 6 - Made a meal of their goal. Otherwise pretty good game.
Trippier: 7 - Not very notable in a positive or negative way today.
Sanchez: 8.5 - Absolutely massive performance from him. His strength and pace got us out of some tough situations.
Verts: 8 - Very good performance.
Davies: 7 - Technically assisted Eriksen's goal. Got caught out frequently, but he was in a difficult spot today and did fine.
Dembele: 7.5 - Solid performance. Somewhat sloppy in the first half though.
Dier: 8 - Great assist, good defending, didn't lose his head for once against chelsea.
Eriksen: 9 MOTM - Still our key player imo. Creates everything, and sometimes even for himself. Changes the whole complexion of the game with one kick of the ball.
Dele: 8.5 - Had a rough go in the first half, punished chelsea the second.
Lamela: 8.5 - He runs and runs and kicks and kicks and screams and I love him.
Son: 7 - Not his best game, but trying to utilize him as a target man first half was a strategic move. He was better in the second half when he got more looks from the wing.

Thought Dier was excellent today. Shame that some tools look for every opportunity to call him shit.
Taken from the England thread for example:

Eriksen was brilliant, but this was Alli's day, scoring 2 to shut up southgate.
All were good, but Davies looked a bit jet lagged.
It goes to show how far Rose has fallen, that he wasn't even brought on as a late sub.
And Alderweireld too, not even on the bench.

this is such a strange feeling... this was not a stand out performance. i think spurs have palyed better against chelsea and lost. But now we are able to win games without having to perform out of our skins. in the end our offensive quality was too much for chelsea.
Ali was MoTM for me.. Led the creative charge.

Oh the Eriksen-haters in the match thread - awkward
Hating on our most important player is another discussion. Pathetic really.
Back to the topic:
Lloris with another mistake in a big game - i'm tired of it. Else he did great.
Defense was OK, Jan always very good. Sanchez OK, but you feel he could make a mistake leading to a goal anytime. Like he almost did in the end, just happy it was Kante at the end of the ball.
Dier OK, didn't get to much help from Dembele who I thought was our "worst" player today - didn't click for him at all.
Our attacking players with Eriksen and Dele in front (my MOTM) was pretty good. Missing Son a bit, and very hard work as always from Lamela who I cannot understand didn't get a single card today - could have been both colors.
If Dier and Dembele were so poor, how comes we totally bossed the midfield? They both put in a proper shift and beasted Fibreglass and Kante.

I will give it to Jan. Defended like a man possessed. In Toby's absence and what looks like an eventual departure, Vertonghen has been as important to the team as Kane or Eriksen.

It just goes to show how quickly the club is evolving.
12 months ago we wouldn't have dreamt that Toby and Rose being left out would have been possible/ acceptable.
But now it feels great to be in this position that Poch can leave out rebels and others are stepping up to the mark!
Long may it continue.

To be fair, I think both were pretty culpable of a number of poor passes and lack of awareness in the first half. Nobody in the team was really on it for the first 43 mins, but the middle two looked at sea at times. BUT they both turned it around the second half and played with more brains and less stress and ended gamr being great. Diers long ball for Dele an obvious highlight.
They werent poor he is obviously blind or watching a different game

It’s Hugos fault plain and simple. If you come out as a goalkeeper you must get some of the ball
Puts Sanchez off too
If he stays in goal it’s a completely different scenario
End of
Dele & Eriksen my MOTM
Sanchez, Dier & Lamela not too far behind either
Brilliant result

I think you could only level blame at Lloris if he has called that and it has effected Sanchez' effort to head it away.
As it would have been a goal whether Hugo had come or not. (Barring Sanchez clearing it)

...Alli a man on a mission - MOTM...
...Sanchez runner up for keeping us in it as we floundered in the 1st half...
...it seems obvious that our FBs are our weakness - Poch seems to use them as decoys to stretch the defending back line so we can try to play through the middle, but won't trust them to take the ball to the byline and possibly get caught upfield...
