Foster 6 looked safe
Emerson 5 same as same as
Sanchez 6 easy game
Tanganga 5 too impetuos and poor on ball
Davies 6 solid
Sessignon 4 poor all round
Sarr 8 very promising performance
Skipp5 not a good game hope its due to lack of games but begining to worry
Gill 7 worked his socks off some nice skills but still light weight
Kane 8 superb as usual
Son 4 begining to lose faith in him hope he snaps back soon

Who voted Sessegnon Love the kid but he was dreadful, another player we need to bin off and upgrade on ASAP.

 

[Japhet]

Voted for Sarr. Could easily have been Kane or Gil but I voted Sarr so hopefully there's some recognition that he's ready to be in with a shout for any match.

Excellent - Sarr, Kane
Very good - Gil
Good -
Average - Son, Davies, Emerson, Tanganga
Weak - Sess, Skipp
Hardly tested - Forster, Sanchez

Think Son goes between Weak and Hardly tested on category Weakest.

Hope he regains confidence somehow, but it has been close to playing 1 down for some time

 

[Oh Teddy Teddy]

Bryan!
Followed by Sarr and Kane.

Thought both Emerson and Sanchez were solid too.

I love how, in response to my disagreeing with your post, you’ve gone and disagreed with 2 of my older posts.

Not once all day was he able to beat a mid-table League 1 right back and get off a cross. There was also one sequence where he made a short pass directly to a defender, manged to retrieve the ball, only to complete another short pass directly to another defender. He's had better days.

generally agree, but personally would put Sanchez in good, not his biggest fan, but he was overall solid today

 

[PCozzie]

Kane/Gil/Sarr 7
Everyone else 6
Except Sess, sadly.

 

[yid-down-under]

Yeah sess wasn’t great (nor son) but at least he got an assist

 

[UbeAstard]

thought Sess, Skipp and Son were below par. Was hoping Son would kick in after Wednesday but he’s still holding on to the ball far too long and his all round play his too slow.

Son is not worth his place at the moment. Need Kulusevski, Richarlison and dare I say Moura back to have some options.

Sarr for me. Protected the defense, supported the attack and did it all with a calm confidence. There’s a real player there.
Another impressive performance from Gil. Great work rate and determination.
Kane the difference maker. Only one goal away from the legendary Jimmy Greaves’ Tottenham goal scoring record and our next game is at home against you know who!! A win with Kane breaking the record would be a quite the memorable day.

Agree with this 100%
in addition, it’s clear that neither Tanganga (who was both too passive and then too aggressive) and sessegnon (who had a perfect opportunity to stake a claim for a more regular spot) are not going to improve further. As others have said, playing against lower quality opposition should allow slightly more time &space. Sessegnon is looking more and more confused about his positioning. Not great that he was hooked for spence
Spence looks more likely to offer something positive, as did Skipp (although his touch and shooting let him down today)
A mixed day for our HG boys

you missed that he twice tried to tackle his own player, he like others simply have not a winning mentality
