Still think Son has more than enough credit in the bank to persist with this patch of form, but he’s not making it easy for me to defend him at the moment. Can’t seem to do anything right at the moment.
Dunno, I can only think Conte doesn't approve of the goatee.
Sanchez is great cover for Romero, we aren’t going to find better so I wish some would appreciate him a bit more. Spurs haven’t conceded a goal with Sanchez on the pitch for over 7 and a half hours….Good second half I thought. We created a bit, they created little. Our defensive shape was really good.
Thought Emerson did well even if he's limited on the ball. The three centre backs were very good. Thought Dier was MOTM. He was outstanding with the exception of one brainless decision when he went all in on Jiminez with that header when 1 on 1. Stupid decision but a colossal performance otherwise. I thought Sanchez did brilliantly too for a lad just coming in. He's not great on the ball but did well defensively.
Harry worked harder than normal and the two CMs stepped it up second half. Thought Sonny was absolutely terrible today but, fudge it, a win, 3 points and a clean sheet. It made negotiating the rail strike worth it.
Crowd were decent too for an early kick off.
COYS, great start and much room for improvement.

Agree with all of that. Especially when Richarlison looks dangerous if chaotic when he comes on.

Sanchez and Perisic our best players, Richarlson looked great off the bench
Dier, Royal, Hojbjerg, Son were all pretty poor i thought
Dier poor? Didn't see that at all. Thought he was brilliant. What did you see that I didn't?

Sanchez made a small mistake at the end of the first half, but recovered well and had a great game overall. Perisic MOTM. I thought PEH had a good game, Dier played decent, average. Royal played ok too, but comparing his crossing and passing to Perisic... Royal has his limitations going up frontSanchez and Perisic our best players, Richarlson looked great off the bench

As an aside i can't believe people were doubting Perisic was going to be a starter for us
That was a training ground set piece I believe. I thought our best player was Perisic. Kane fluffed a good chance, as did son, in the penalty box. Both should have scored imo.Kane MotM for me. True he was mostly plodding first half but still tested their keeper with a quality header from Perisic's cross just before HT. Then raised his game to another level after the interval. His goal was mainly pretty much all down his to crafty anticipation, the sort that only top strikers can come up with. Also hit woodwork and produced several first-time classy balls and lay-offs to front runners second half.
