Αll things considered, MoM was Dele Alli by a mile. Pity he didn't score at 1-0, but watching the replays it was a world class save by Allison, not a miss. The ball was going to the corner.
And Winks was fantastic. Dier too. A bad day for the haters all around.
I‘ve voted for team effort but think Winks and Dier were standouts.
Dele’s best performance in the league for over a year. Worked hard and did everything outside of the box very well. Gutted about his miss and fluffed pass to Kane but far more encouraging.
Dele put in a great shift but not quite as good due to the missed chances (mainly the hospital pass to Kane).
Thought Kane and Son were wasteful but the fact they got so many chances is hugely encouraging.
Pleased for Sessegnon, really growing in confidence. Conversely, thought Emerson was really poor both going forward and defensively. Will give him the benefit of the doubt as he's just had COVID but he's still a question mark for me.
Winks, Sess, Dele. Something I never thought I’d say before the season. And shoutout to Dier and Davies, both were fantastic again and have been especially good since Conte joined. Sanchez top. Hugo top.
Albatross - Winks (MOTM)
Eagle - Dier, Davies, Lloris
Birdie - Dele
Par - Sessegnon, Sanchez, Ndombele, Son, Kane
Bogey - Emerson
Full spectrum on offer today. Winks was a revelation. Dier is our most important outfielder atm. Dele gets over par for his attitude and work but he, Son and Kane wasted too many glorious opportunities.
We're going to get good, I have no doubt. A little more quality in the next two windows and we'll be a force again.
Lloris - 7 - Couple of decent saves. Couldn't have done much for either goal.
Royal - 6 - I though he was quite poor today. Not good enough in the final third, and had a torrid time with Mané (who is a real handful) first half.
Sanchez - 7 - Couple of shaky moments, couple of great defending moments too.
Dier - 8 - Led the defence really well, and some nice long passes.
Davies - 8 - Really solid game and good in possession.
Sessegnon - 7.5 - Thought he defended well and looked a threat when he made aggressive runs.
Winks - 8 - He still runs past the ball too easily defending, but good in possession and looked sharp.
Ndombele - 6 - A world class pass for Kane's goal. But did very little else. Skipp was much better once he was on.
Dele - 8 - Looked liek Dele of old. Allison did a world class save when he probably should have scored. But if we play like this (3-5-2) I think he'll get a lot of goals.
Son - 8 - Unlucky not to have 2 goals, looked a threat throughout.
Kane - 7 - Very nice goal but should have had a hat-trick (at least). Slowly waking from his slumber.
Reggy - 7
Skipp - 8 - Helped us look so much more solid and better in possession.
Moura - 7 - Looked sharp
Overall, a very encouraging performance against a very good Liverpool side. To think we had 5 first choice players missing - Romero, Reggy, Skipp, Moura and Højbjerg - and still were very competitive was a great sign. Hopefully most of those 5 and Lo Celso, will have a big part to play in the congested schedule coming in the next three weeks,
Hugo- looked great and his kicking was better today
Royal- was ok for me, but he got their player a red +
Dier, Sanchez and Davies- all good performances
Sess- really got forward and dealt with Sahah well
Winks- for him to play like that well done to all
Dele- see above
Ndombele- sluggish and apart from the assist not that great
Son and Kane- much better- really good to see
Subs all did what was needed
Conte- the man with a plan A, B and C
Overall a great team effort and I really enjoyed that
