Match Ratings Ratings vs Forest

Forster. Really solid today.

 

[PLTuck]

Richarlison for me. Played a part in all 3 goals and so unlucky not to score at least one.

Kane, Porro, Skipp and Forster also excellent.

 

[MiakSarawak]

Hats off to Forster, Richarlison and Porro.

Skipp was good as well, and so was Hojbjerg.

Kane and Son for the goals.

Only slight disappointment was Lenglet.

 

[whitechina]

Richie for me
He made his comments in midweek and backed it up with a great game.
Shame about that offside- but he was involved in all three goals, his movement was fantastic and he puts himself in positions to get fouls.
Thankfully we got the 3 points

 

[GutBucket]

Richarlison, Skipp, Porro, Kane and Forster better than the rest, but everyone was at least ok, except maybe Kulusevski but it's not like he played a whole lot (maybe for the best).

 

[Jules77]

Skipp… amazing midfielder. Look at the way the entire bench applauded him off the field. The pros know… he’s become the heartbeat holding this team together the past few weeks.

 

[DenverSpur]

Richarlison by a country mile. He showed great character to not let the ludicrous furor over his midweek comments(people aren’t allowed to have an opinion?) and a disgraceful decision to disallow his goal to affect his performance. He was at the heart of everything we did good today and never stopped battling. He has to start every game from now to the end of the season. The 3rd spot in the front 3 is a battle between Son and Kulusevski but he should be a nailed on starter alongside Kane.

Skipp was good as well, and so was Hojbjerg.

Kane and Son for the goals.

Only slight disappointment was Lenglet.

I found Hojbjerg quite frustrating, with his back to goal he is really poor. There were a number of times when he received the ball with no one around him and it was a pass backwards.

 

[Marty]

Richarlison and Skipp were excellent. Kane very good.

Forster superb but for the flap for their goal, which tbh is quite a big but (no pun intended)

 

[Russ1201]

Skipp… amazing midfielder. Look at the way the entire bench applauded him off the field. The pros know… he’s become the heartbeat holding this team together the past few weeks.

So happy we didnt loan him out. Looking forward to Skippy, benny and hopefully a quality new signing in a 3 man midfield next season.
I know wishful thinking....

 

[überghost]

Richy. Should have had a goal, an assist and a penalty awarded.

Bur close race with skipp and porro.

 

[ravo]

Skipp, Richy, Porro, Kane and Forster were all excellent.

Rest all pretty darn good. Should have had 5 but we'll take it.

I found Hojbjerg quite frustrating, with his back to goal he is really poor. There were a number of times when he received the ball with no one around him and it was a pass backwards.

Yeah he tends to get into position without really wanting the ball and so does not look around him, and as a result often finds himself totally unaware what's around him and just panic passes it straight back and then looks around.
Which is totally pointless as you have to assume your teammates can judge when to pass you the ball or not.
Either way though he should always be looking around and expecting the ball.

Pleased for Skipp as this run of games has shown he has real ability to move the ball quickly with quite an array of passes. And can receive it on the half turn.

Find it quite sad that the only way he could get a run of games was with injuries.

Would love to see him and Bentancur together or him Bentancur and Bissouma in a 3 man CM.

Let's hope he can become a mainstay in what remains of the season.

MotM Skipp

Richarlison just edges it for me.

Simply because after his comments, a poor performance would have made him look like a prat.

Put his money where his mouth was today. Good on the lad.

Skipp close second for me.

 

[Finchyid]

This is it....he doesnt turn to go forward. Cant fault his work rate but a limited footballer

 

[Finchyid]

Richie was best player today followed by Porro, although he really infuriated me at times in the first half, he had so many opportunities to go forward with ball and didnt, also had overlap opportunities too but that aside had a good game..I think its just confidence he needs

 

[NickHSpurs]

Hard to choose between Skipp and Richy but Oli just shaded it for me, thought he ran the show and set the tone early doors.

 

[DarwinSpur]

get ready for a few more spurs podcasters asking themselves: "Is Skipp better than we thought" of a bloke that Mourinho, Nuno and Conte have all said is top class

Even Poch used to rave about Skippy.
The boy's got everything he needs to succeed and that's been clear for a good couple of years now.
His injury buggered him a bit but now he's back, he's continuing with the progression he was showing before.
Just gets better every game.

To be honest, there are so many Spurs podcasters that appear to not know anything about our club and players.
