Match Ratings Ratings vs Frankfurt

[Bulletspur]

One point away from home in Europe is not all that bad but with a bit of fluidity and more composure, we would have had all three points. Our defence did their job, our offence did not.

 

[SlotBadger]

Bentancur and Lenglet, both excellent.
Romero, very good.
Hojbjerg, decent second half.
Lloris’ kicking, dreadful.
Richarlison, very poor.
Son, an utter abomination.

 

[RuskyM]

Hojbjerg MOTM for me, really pleased that I'm eating my words. Bentancur & Lenglet great. Kane struggling.

 

[agrdavidsfan]

Lloris - 3
Emerson 5
Romero - 6
Dier - 6
Lenglet - 6
Perisic - 3 don’t see the fuss so clumsy at times like a sloth going forward
Bentacur - 8 the only footballer out there
Hojbjerg - 5
Son - 0 was that his cousin out there can’t control the football or do anything other than give it away
Kane - 2 out of form
Richarlson 3 - clumsy and clunky

Gil - 2 just fell over a gust of wind may actually blow him away

Conte 2 - should have took son off and gone 5-3-2 been brave enough to try Spence or Doherty

 

[TEESSIDE1]

Lloris for the superb save to stop using from going a goal down.

Hojbjerg, Bentancur and the centre backs were all decent.

Forwards and wing backs were hopeless.

 

[spids]

Close to clicking none deserved but Romero (and Lenglet were both very good front foot defending). Overall, a very dull game where the underlying tone was our players looked knackered and out of form..

Lloris - 6.5 - One great save. Some poor passing though.
Emerson - 5 - Threw himself to the floor way too much and offered nothing offensively.
Romero - 7.5 - Very aggressive and won a lot of tackles.
Dier - 6 - Every pass seemed slightly under hit.
Lenglet - 7 - Good front foot defending.
Perisic - 6 - He is not showing what I thought we'd get offensively. Looked very tired.
Bentancur - 7 - Looked very tired.
Højbjerg - 6 - Looked very tired.
Son - 4 - Put his boots on the wrong feet. So many heavy touches and wayward passes. He was actually a liability second half.
Richarlison 5 - Heavy feet, heavy touches. Looked tired.
Kane - 5 - Heavy feet, heavy touches. Looked tired.

Sessegnon - n/a - Not enough time to judge.
GIl - n/a - Not enough time to judge.
Davies - n/a - Not enough time to judge.

Conte - 5- Picked a leggy, tired team, in a formation that does not suit us when Kulusevski is not playing. Doherty and Spence may as well put transfer requests in if they cannot get minutes in this side.

Back 3, PEH and (MotM) Bentancur did their jobs admirably.

Rest were just holding a contest of who can fuck up the most promising positions in which Son was overall winner.

 

[BigVic]

Probably give it to Hojberg. Kane playing likes got lead in his boots.

 

[delawarespur]

Front 3 were pretty poor. Back 3 and GK the best on the pitch. Everyone else somewhere in between. CM’s better than the WB’s. Thus a 0-0.

Agree with most of what you say but how can you give lloris a 3…didn’t do anything wrong really and kept us in the match

 

[Spurvert]

Lloris - 4. Still hate him on the ball.
Emerson 5. Started ok, but not good enough.
Romero - 6. Better than the weekend.
Dier - 6. Solid Eric Dier.
Lenglet - 6. Good on the ball. Bit slow, mind. Solid.
Perisic - 3. Honestly, he’s been awful for ages. Out of sync, passing not great. Touch not great. Wouldn’t be in my team Saturday.
Bentacur - 7. Our best player, mainly through effort and a few good periods of play. Always working hard.
Hojbjerg - 6. Very ok. I’m not his biggest fan, though. Solid.
Son - 2. Awful first touch. Poor finishing. Has had one good half all season.
Kane - 2. Thought he was really bad. Not sure if he is starting to feel his age now? Just looks sluggish to me. Passing was off, got beaten on the ball a lot.
Richarlson - 3. Feel for him on the right. But needs to do better on the ball.

Conte - 3. Just bored of how predictable the line up is. The subs are. The post match conference will be. Something needs to change. Not him going, but at least he can’t play Emerson on Saturday.

 

[Phil_2.0]

Good game. One of the best of the season. Amazing pressing.

Lloris - 6 - Not much to do, good off his line

Romero - 9 - Thats a proper Romero performance, highly aggressive and all over pitch. More of this Romero
Dier - 8 - One of his best games in a long time
Lenglet - 8 - Again really good, lots of effort.

Royal - 5 - Not to beat up on him but actually think he was a bit weak. Lucky it didn't come down his side much second half. First half okay.
Bentancur - 8 - Rolls Royce
Hojbjerg - 8 - Lots of effort, some good passing and some bad. Classic PEH performance.
Perisic - 6 - Looks a little bit old but I like his presence in the team

Richarlison - 6 - Messy but can't fault the effort
Kane - 7 - Messy but held it up so much better than he has done recently
Son - 6 - Messy but can't fault the effort

Conte - 8 - Questioned his team selection heavily but he got a great performance out of them. Got a great effort out of his team.

Except putting Romero in all kinds of shit and some other awful bits of kicking

 

[WhiteStripe]

Bentancur is pretty much default MOM every game lately, says a lot.

 

[whitesocks]

mighty mouse motm
He was up against players twice his size!

 

[mpickard2087]

The defensive unit (CM's and CB's) - Rad.

The attacking unit (WB's and FW's) - Bad.

 

[JCRD]

Bentancur is pretty much default MOM every game lately, says a lot.

I thought PEH played well as did our back line.

Overall I didnt think we were that bad in terms of us trying to do what we are trying to do but it does seem be lacking in fluidity. It is all very piecemeal and disjointed.

Im not dissapointed or ecstatic with a point but a point on its own is fine but in the context of the loss agaisnt Sporting - you cant help but think its two dropped

You can’t give Emerson a 5 then give son a 6….sorry that’s just wrong

 

[PLTuck]

Torn between Bentancur and crazy Pete, as I think combined they are a monster. They seem to bring out the best in each other and have a real understanding with each other. Romero very good apart from one sloppy moment.

Went for Bentancur. Oozes class.

 

[Phil_2.0]

Son's work rate was exceptional right to the last whistle. When someone works so hard I find it difficult to drop them below a 6. Royal looked tired and was making mistakes.

I agree that Son isn't playing well though.
