Vorm 7 - Could do nothing with the goal and his distribution was very good.
Davies 6 - Looked nervy in the first half as did the whole team but came alive in the second and got forward a lot better. Needs to be more confident in himself. Poch will show him the issue with their goal I have no doubt.
Fazio 7 - Was up against a big brute of a bloke who actually was taller and wider than Fazio so a proper battle. Won almost every header and reads the game quite well. I think he will become our starting CB with time.
Vertonghen 7 - Didnt really put a foot wrong.
Naughton 8 - I thought Naughton was superb. He has good technique and is actually a very good footballer, he just lacks in the athlete department a little bit.
Stambouli 7 - Love his tenacity, perfect for the Pochs game.
Bentaleb 6 - Keeps the ball well and works very hard, still only 19 which a lot of people forget, but he plays with a lot of maturity.
Lennon 5 - Doesn't offer any attacking threat, no shots, no passes into the box, never takes his man on. Pointless winger.
Paulinho 4 - Very poor game, he doesn't look interested in playing for Spurs to be honest so I think he will go in January.
Townsend 6 - So so so frustrating, if I were a striker with Townsend on the wing I would be pulling my hair out. Yeah he runs around a lot and stuff but he has zero footballing brains. It says a lot that we couldnt muster a shot on target until late in the game with him and Lennon as our attacking threats.
Soldado 5 - Just not suited to our game I dont think. Took the goal well. We do not play to his strengths and I dont think we ever will.

Kane 7 - He is a goal threat whenever he plays, he may not be the most beautiful player to watch but it seems like in every game Ive ever watched him in he does score or almost scores. That is a very good thing. Wins headers aswell unlike Ade.
Mason 8 - Wonderful goal and a very neat and tidy player. Got a bit excited after he scored and tried a couple of silly passes but I dont blame him at all, after all he has been through I think anyone would get a bit excited. So glad for him and think he could well push himself into contention to start games soon.
Lamela 8 - The boy oozes class. Great assist and very unlucky with the shot. The best bit though is his determination to win the ball back. Once he has played 20 games or so and is really into his stride he will be by far our best player.
