I don't think anyone stood out.
Kane, Son, Moura and Reguilon 6
Everyone else 7
Goals from wing backs are key. Look at Chelsea over the last month Chilwell and James have chipped in and Alonso is usually threat.A couple of big takeaways for me:
- Conte didn’t want to lose that, more than he wanted to win (and risk losing). Subbing off Lucas & Son for Lo Celso & Ndombele - rather than, say, Hojbjerg - showed as much. It’s understandable that that’s a top priority as he gets to grips with the squad.
- For that reason though, don’t be surprised if Winks - rather than GLC or Tanguy - takes Skipp’s place v Leeds.
- Our wing-backs need to do lots of finishing practice; they will get a decent share of our chances with this system.
How can you Moura and Son be 2 points higher than Kane? Both of the were equally as bad. Kane at least did some good things. Don't remember Son or Moura doing anything good of note.Lloris - 7 - Little to do other than the one on one save with Richarlison which he handled well.
Emerson - 7 - Stopped being effective offensively when the team tired second half. Defended pretty well.
Romero - 7 - Some very strong tackles.
Dier - 8 - Consistently good throughout.
Davies - 6 - Alsways seemed off the pace in possession and took too long on the ball, especially first half.
Reguillon - 5 - Very poor going forwards.
Skipp - 8 - Thought he played very well today.
Højbjerg - 7 - Lacking on the ball offensively. Some timely interceptions and tackles though.
Moura - 6 - The best of our attacking players and surprised he was hooked first his pace was our only obvious weapon.
Kane - 4 - Worst I have seen him play. He is bang out of form. Very surprised he was not subbed off and he should have been.
Son - 6 - Worked hard but very little quality.
Ndonbele - 6 - Stupid yellow card
Lo Celso - 7 - Fabulous shot. Pathetic corner.
Doherty - 7 - Couple of nice crosses.
Conte - 7 - He obviously has got the players prepared to fight. Surprised he went with an unchanged team and then left subs so long as the players were dead on their feet after the first half.
