Moussa Dembele
A crunching tackle from Cheick Tiote set the tone for the Belgian who never looked the same after the Magpies midfielder had left his mark.
Although only playing 45 minutes that was enough for Dembele to be exposed in the middle of the park and it was far from the dominant performance we’ve come to expect from the 26-year-old.
The midfielder gave the ball away too often and provided no energy in attack – which is becoming a problem for the goal hungry Tottenham.
