football london rates Tottenham players after Tottenham's 4-2 loss to Liverpool.
Vicario: 5 points
made an excellent save to stop Salah's shot early in the game, but he was unable to stop the Egyptian's header in the 16th minute. Robertson's goal in the final moments of the first half should have been better defended, and perhaps the same could be said for Gakpo's header.
Polo: 5 points
gave Gakpo space to pass the ball, but Salah hit the ball into the net. Robertson was unaware of Liverpool's second goal.
Romero: 7 points
played an excellent defense in the first ten minutes of the game, preventing Elliott's shot from entering the net. Tottenham's best defender made a number of blocks and tackles, although he may have felt he could have done better with Gakpo's goal.
Van der Ven: 6 points
Liverpool wanted a penalty after fouling Dutch national teammate Gakpo in the first half. Sometimes the defense does a good job but for some reason he chooses to let the ball roll a few yards in front of the goal in front of him with Salah standing right behind him. Fortunately it didn't cost Spurs and the ball was just wide of target. 6
Emerson: 3 points
maintained his position at left-back but failed to notice the ball as Salah crept into the backline and headed home. It was a difficult afternoon against Liverpool's No. 11, but ten minutes before the end of the first half he made an excellent tackle on the attacker who was about to test Vicario, before the Brazilian An excellent block blocked Alexander-Arnold's shot. The crucial point came when possession was lost outside the penalty area and Gakpo scored Liverpool's third goal of the afternoon before being substituted shortly afterwards.
Bisuma: 6 points
was better after the midweek game at Chelsea, trying to control the ball and pass the ball forward. Sometimes he makes good use of the ball.
Bentancur: 5 points
The Uruguayan midfielder started the game after coming on as a substitute in midweek. He made several beautiful passes in the opening period, but his form declined later. Substituted at 60 minutes into the game.
Sarr: 5 points
He maintained his place in the team and received a yellow card in the final minutes of the first half. It was tough most of the game.
Kulusevski: 4 points
He made little contribution in the frontcourt and had no success on the court.
Son Heung-min: 6 points
returned to the center position in the offense, but did not pose a threat to the opponent at the beginning. His performance was much better after moving to the left wing, and he made several excellent runs to cause problems for the Liverpool defence. Scored a goal towards the end of the game.
Brennan Johnson: 5 points
's header early in the second half was saved by Alisson. With Kulusevski coming off the field, he returned to the right wing position. Getting an assist from that position, he passed the ball to Richarlison.
Substitute player
Richarlison: 8 points
immediately created an opportunity after coming on the field and tried to attack Liverpool while holding the ball. The goal came at the last moment with a wonderful close range shot.
Madison: 6 points
tried to bring Tottenham back into the game with long-range shots and helped the team in the frontcourt.
Skip
came on as left back for Emerson and had an impact on the goal after his pass found Richarlison.
Lo Celso: 6 points
came on the field in the final stages of the game and increased the tempo in the midfield.
