Lloris - 6 - Terrible distribution and too risky on the ball today. Couple decent saves.
Dier - 6 - Looked solid in defense, dangerous on set pieces, 1 or 2 good balls to the front as well.
Kaboul - 2 - Calamitous.
Chiriches - 1 - Even more calamitous. This has to be the worst CB partnership we could play and we've done it 2 straight games now.
Rose - 6 - Not as good as Dier in defense but showed some urgency and attacking ambitions.
Capoue - 5.5 - Did well enough.
Demebele - 4 - Lost the ball a lot and didn't get much going in attack, caught out of position a lot too.
Lamela - 4.5 - Didn't come off for him but tried to make stuff happen. At least he takes on the workload as opposed to running from it (Ade).
Eriksen - 4.5 - Looked our only hope at times but overall very poor and absolutely shocking set pieces when we really could have used some good ones.
Chadli - 4 - Didn't do much but for some isolated runs.
Adebayor - 0.5 - I will block anyone who rates him higher than this. Fucking pathetic. Way to repay a manager's faith in making him vice captain.

Soldado - 4 - Some decent play but overall just another anonymous player. At least he got a shot on target.
Paulinho - 3.5 - See above.
Lennon - 3.5 - See above.

There were a few errors from him but I'd say Rose was the best outfield player for us. Only for the fact that he didn't fuck around with the ball like the rest of them. He got it, actually ran forward with the ball and showed some intent.

Lloris - 6 - Not at fault for the goal, delt with what was thrown at him.

Dier - 5 - Offers very little in attack but solid in defence.
Kaboul - 5
Chiriches - 1 - How this clown managed to perform ever worse than he did last week is incredible.
Rose - 5 - Not bad, not great.

Dembélé - 5
Capoue - 6

Lamela - 2 - Turd. Needs to stop trying to look like a superstar and actually perform above Championship level.
Eriksen - 4 - Nothing worked for him today but at least he didn't run in to players and give the ball away constantly like Lamela.
Chadli - 4

Adebayor - 1 - Turd.

Paulinho - 1 - Came on and did nothing but give away the ball and missplace passes. One of the worst signings this club have ever made as far as I know. £17m for this guy.
Soldado - 5 - Had nothing to work with, got a shot on goal.
Lennon - 6 - Out performed Lamela in what? 10 minutes?

Lloris - 6 - Put the CBs under pressure again and again with silly short passes, instead of clearing upfield.
Dier - 6 - Certainly not our worst player today
Kaboul - 2 - Captain? Why on earth Poch?
Chiriches - 1 - Joke performance. I hope that's the last we see of him.
Rose - 5.5 - Not his best but one of our better players on the day
Capoue - 4.5 - Too slow for the PL
Dembele - 4 - Decent enough first half, nowhere to be seen in the second until he was substituted.
Lamela - 3 - Woefully ineffective as usual. His leg-ups, I mean step-overs, are ridiculous and only seem to fool himself rather than the opposition. Running straight into players, trying to pass through players time and time again - just like last season... Oh and he missed his man on the corner they scored on.
Eriksen - 3 - So sick of seeing him hit shit corners straight into the first defender. 9 times out of fucking 10. How is it possible?
Chadli - 3 - Did nothing.
Adebayor - 2 - Poor in the first half like the rest, but just incomprehensibly bad in the second.

Soldado - 2 - Just not good enough.
Paulinho - 1 - Still can't believe we sold Sandro and kept this joker.
Lennon - 2 - Doesn't even seem interested anymore.

Not bothered about ratings. Capoue was the only one who really came out well today. Chadli, Eriksen and Lamela all tried their best but ultimately failed to impact the game. They lacked a little bit of cutting edge to make things happen. Part of that is down to Ade. Thought he was, along with Chiriches, our worst player today. He seemed disinterested and failed to do his job as a target man. I'm pretty fed up with him to be honest, and I did say his resurgence under Tim was going to be short lived. For a target man, he is very poor. Strays too much from his position allowing the centre backs to have time to set, fails to hold the ball up well, has a poor touch, is not a good passer, and is often beaten in the air. He takes far too many touches instead of making quick layoffs, doesn't do enough as a big man to bully the opposition defenders, and to top it off is a woeful finisher. I'd rather Kane at this rate.

Chiriches and Kaboul is a frightening centre back pairing. I want to love Chiriches, I really do, but he just doesn't read the game well and takes too many inappropriate touches. He's got that touch of class about him, akin to Vertonghen, but also has that erratic side which puts us in trouble. Kaboul is not a strong enough leader at the back either, he should be taking the game by the scruff of the neck there, organising that back line, beat that erratic side out of Chiriches and telling him not to fuck around and play it simple. I only hope Poch is trying to nurture a partnership between Fazio and Vertonghen in the cup games as there's less pressure in them than with the EPL games, because I don't want to imagine this as our centre back pairing.

Poch - needs to stop taking a strong side to the other side of europe. We pretty much just need an away draw. If we win our home games we finish top, pretty much.

Lloris 6 - Feel sorry for you buddy, you deserve better, a lot better. You will probably have it next season at one of the top clubs.
Dier 5 - Young lad shouldn't keep getting played out of position. He gets forward well but playing next to "Laughkaboul" must be a nightmare.
Kaboul 3 - What has happened to him. How he is our Captain I have no idea. Turns like a bus and loses markers far too easy.
Chiriches 2 - Que........crap crap crap crap crap crap. Seriously, Atouba MK2.
Rose 5 - Nothing good, nothing terrible.
Dembele 3 - Didn't impose himself at all. People slate Bentaleb but atleast he shows for the ball and wants to push forward. Very poor today.
Capoue 5 - Still not 100% about him yet. Needs to convince me he is good enough.
Chadli 2 - Did he play....? Honestly I dont remember a single thing he did....!
Lamela 2 - Really really poor game, too many times holding on to the ball and doing the roll over thingy. Look up, pass, then move. Thats it.
Eriksen 4 - Tried hard but actually looked lost in the position he was playing.
Adebayor 1 - Absolutely disgusting performance, needs to be benched. Take away the laziness and lethargy, the biggest issue I have with him is he is a zero goal threat. Absolute zero.

What's up with the Kaboul hate ? He was ok today. Chiriches was the liability, not Kaboul.

I voted Eriksen because he created 1 or 2 good chances. He was miles better than Lamela (but it wasn't that hard).

Really Capoue?

nowhere near mobile enough to be a lone front screen. Makes Yaya look like he's had caffeine injections.

so lax at times it's untrue.


My thoughts on match...

We tried to up the tempo of passing, we saw that some simply cannot do that without their passing stats plummeting.

But we tried.

I thought we moved the ball quite well first 25 but once they realised Ade was a standing target they squeezed us then they got to grips with us in the middle and the movement died and our back four were always susceptible to the ball in behind (or in front)

I see through the humour, and from the numerical ratings I read this as a coded attack on Chiriches, Dembele and Lamela and that you think they played like ****s ;)

Was there a reason Verts did not play today ? Too tired ? Being saved for Forest ? Or resting for 10 days before the NLD ? I'm not saying this is the reason we lost but choosing 2 centre backs that can't defend is not a good foundation for a good team performance . As far as I'm concerned they are number 4 and 5 choices amongst our central defenders .
Was Stambouli injured ? He looks the best option to inject some energy into our midfield.

I can't do ratings because everyone was shit and so were the team selections . Dyer wasn't too bad.

I am sorry to say this but next weekend has a 4-0 loss written all over it
