Gollini - Not good enough for us, be it lacking game time or whatever. I realize it's hard to come in playing with a shaky defense in front of you but really isn't radiating any sort of confidence.
Doherty - Did ok, running slot and actually showing intent with runs into the box. Seems to have confidence issues and probably isn't good enough but also has the role of a convenient scape goat at times.
Tanganga - Needs regular game time, be it through a loan or playing with the kids, looked shaky and the defending for their goal was so poor it's hard to find redemption for him.
Rodon - Looked poor and shaky all game, a loan might do him good and would love to be wrong but strikes me as being in the same category as CCV, gonna end up going on countless loans and just never make it with us.
Davies - Did ok. With his improvement under Conte already I'm gonna give him a pass this game. Probably isn't good enough to lead the back three, specially with these two partners but have done a good job regularly in the three when lead by Dier.
Sess - Mixed bag for me, tried to make stuff happen at times but nothing really came off. Missed quite a sitter after switching over to RWB, still young but did nothing to take claim on a regular starting spot.
Ndombele - Looked lazy, weak on the ball and totally lacking vision. He's possessing so much talent but showed absolutely nothing of that yesterday. Needs to be sold at a loss as he gives to vibe of being poison to the group.
Winks - Was Winks. Great goal be it a fluke or actual intention, looked like he cares at least.
Lo Celso - Frustrating. I was sure he was gonna be a star for us but it hasn't really happened for him for one reason or another. Weak shooting, under hit passes and at times quite a bad body language. Looked a lot more interested when Ndombele walked off and Lucas + Kane entered. Wouldn't actively work on getting rid but certainly wouldn't oppose to sell him.
Gil - Ran a bunch but can't see why there are people rating him highly. Still young and adapting to a new country though so there still might be a player there. Wouldn't label him a flop as of yet but was a bag of meh out there today.
Dele - Not a striker. I think it's time for him to move on to be honest. Whatever played he was he just isn't any more. Whatever his strengths are or used to be we're not playing a system fit for him. Might wanna look at a loan option for him if we can find any takers, Lingaard looked like an amazing player when he went on loan to West Ham last season, maybe Dele just needs to find somewhere where he's played every week and gets a bit of love but atm he's offering nothing for us.
Lucas - Came on and won us the game. Not overly fuzzed by him overall as I feel he's a very frustrating player but today he was all the difference. Credit where due. MOTM for me.
Kane - Missed quite a sitter, then scored a goal where he made it look so easy. Happy seeing him yell at Ndombele to get off the pitch and actually showing he cares, at least a bit.
Skipp - Ran a bunch. Did an ok job after coming in, nothing more.
