Fraser Forster-5

Forster continues to start games with Hugo Lloris injured but he conceded three early goals with non of them truly his fault. He would be kicking himself for the Liverpool winner though.

Eric Dier-3

Terrible start to the game where he was caught out for the first goal. Improved in the second half even though Spurs lost eventually.

Cristian Romero-3

Just needs to stay on his feet and he doesn't give away the penalty for the third Liverpool goal. Great defender and a World Cup winner, but surely needs to do better.

Pedro Porro-5

Should have done better for the first Liverpool goal as his sense of awareness was all over the place. Improved in the second half even though the game had been lost by then.

Ivan Perisic-4

Spent large parts of the first half just defending and hoping to keep the scoreline respectful. Not the impact he’d have loved.

Ben Davies-5.5

Full start after his injury so hard to really blame him for the mess of the first half plus he got a beautiful assist for Kane’s goal. Encouraging return to the first team.

Pierre-Emile Højbjerg-4.5

You can never really question his commitment but there really is a feeling that he might not be the answer to the problems in the middle. Was non existent in the first half of chaos. Slightly improved in the second half.

Oliver Skipp-6

Will get the pre-assist for Tottenham’s first goal and showed so much fight when most of his teammates where just letting it go. There is a reason why fans always want home grown players to get into the first team, its because they get it in games like this.

Dejan Kulusevski-5.5

Carries the ball so well which allows his teammates to join him up front, the only issue is, he’s no more creating or scoring as often as he did when he first arrived.

Harry Kane-6

Scored for the fourth away game running. At a time when everything looks to be going wrong for Tottenham, he just seems to be the shinnning light.

Son Heung-min-6

Should have scored in the first half and hit the post with a brilliant curler in the second, before scoring Tottenham’s second to set up a nervous end to the game.

Pape Matar Sarr-5

Brought on for Kulusevski to form a three man midfield and showed energy and legs to keep his team ticking in the game nicely.

Richarlison-6

Given the last 10 minutes and he thought he’d have earned his side a point with his first Premier League goal, but it wasnt to be for the Brazilian.

Lucas Moura- 3

Was at fault for the Liverpool winner.
