Ratings VS Swansea

[Bulletspur]

Lloris - 7
Walker - 7
Dawson - 5
Chiriches - 6
Rose - 7
Lennon - 6
Bentaleb - 6
Dembele - 7
Eriksson - 7
Chadli - 6
Adebayor - 8

Sherwood - 7 I thought bringing on Naughton, pushing Walker up and taking Lennon off was very astute, but what does Siggurssen have on the Managers that he seems to always being picked or brought on? He should have left Chadli on with all the good Siggurssen did.

EDIT: Having just re-watched the second half, I will concur that Sigs did have a better game (not great) than I did give him credit for.

 

[Blake Griffin]

sigurdsson was better than chadli.

 

[FinnYid]

sigurdsson was better than chadli.

Yep and it was good pass to Eriksen on road to 3rd goal

 

[faymantaray]

He should have left Chadli on with all the good Siggurssen did.

Is that really necessary? He started off the move for our 3rd goal with a pass on the turn and after that it was a completely different game, just about seeing out the win.

 

[The Scarecrow]

Two horse race between Adebayor and Eriksen, but the latter gets my vote. Everything he did seemed to come off, although he should've scored.

 

[Lifeson]

Siggurdsson made a good pass for our 3rd goal, worked hard and helped the midfield the last 10 minutes, Chadli looked abit knackered at that point.

Lol classic SC nonsense that you see on here sometimes

he's the midfield version of Clint Dempsey ...

 

[L-man]

Lloris 7 - solid performance and some decent saves
Walker 7 - couple of brain farts early on but came into the game well and got the assist. Was decent when moved to RW as well
Dawson 7 - best game for a while despite that ludicrous decision to dive into a tackle just before our first goal
Chiriches 7.5 - Another good performance from him. Was initially worried he was a bit risky trying to get forward all the time a la Kaboul first time round but making the positon his own. Very unlucky with the pass to Ade
Rose 6.5 - still needs to work on crossing and isn't really good enough for us long term. But not a bad performance and decent pass for the third
Lennon 5 - worst performance for a while. Didn't really get going and poor delivery
Dembele 7 - good game. Horrific miss though at 2-0
Bentaleb 7.5 - very good again. Quiet but kept everything going and saw someone mention he made 10 tackles. Excellent return
Chadli 4 - what does he do. I still don't know
Eriksen 8 - really great game again. New player under Tim. Some great tricks and turns today. Signing of the season
Adebayor 8.5 - nicks motm off Eriksen. Two good finishes and is such a great player linking up with the midfield

Siggy 5 - nothing great and not much to do. Seemed to lose the ball a couple of times needlessly
Naughton 6 - did well enough coming on

Can't remember if anyone else came on?

 

[LexingtonSpurs]

I could go Eriksen, Ade or Lloris here. All had big games.

 

[faymantaray]

he's the midfield version of Clint Dempsey ...

What does that even mean?

 

[Lufti]

Chadli, Lennon and Sigurdsson aren't top 4 standard, squad players or otherwise.

 

[stov]

i went for bentaleb, not an obvious choice, but he was the platform on which the victory was built. disciplined, good on the ball, composed and made tonnes of crucial interceptions and tackles.

Lloris 7 - Didn't have to do much, but made a few good saves. Couldn't do anything about the goal.

Walker 7.5- Impressive performance again. Solid defensively, but his attacking work rate was excellent. Never gave up, even though some of his crosses were a little dodgy.
Dawson 6 - Dominated by Bony in first half, better in the second. Solid performance.
Chiriches - 7 - very comfortable, didn't get bullied, more composed than Dawson imo.
Rose 6 - Attacking was good but at fault for their goal, didn't do too much. Still need a great LB imo.

Dembele 7 - Very composed again, dominated in the middle again, good attacking and defending. Awful decision re the miss though, hence only a 7.
Eriksen 8.5 - Very very good, everything he did was correct. Does the simpmle things well and the scoop turn and the cross were divine. Class player, absolute bargain, starting to get used to the PL more now.
Bentaleb 7 - Very solid again, his passing was excellent, was very confident, calm and composed on the ball. Reminds me a bit of Paul Scholes. Star.

Lennon 5.5 - Might seem harsh but he lost the ball on multiple occasions and didn't do enough to warrant the same rating as Rose and Dawson. Ben Davies handled him very well.
Adebayor 9 - MOM for me. Everything he did was great. Very good finishing, held it up well, looks like he's back. Link up with Eriksen was very promising.
Chadli 5 - Proved why he hasn't been starting. Was poor again today, didn't really do anything, and should have scored a second goal.

Very good away performance.

Agree on the first two, but not sure what Lloris did to merit MOTM. He had some good saves that one would expect from a keeper of his quality. Nothing groundbreaking, a solid 7, but never MOTM.

 

[rich75]

Point to ponder. We scored 3 goals for the first time this season in the league, and guess who was not playing up top?

Do Stoke and Southampton not count then ?

Chiri actually played 90 mins

 

[GutBucket]

Adebayor MOM for me, Eriksen close second.

Ha!! Can't believe I forgot him, I'll edit my post
