CM: Eric Dier – 8/10
Swept up very well in front of his back four and was seldom beaten in a 50-50 challenge. Brings much-needed muscle to the team, but showed that he can play too with a few pinging cross-field passes.
CM: Dele Alli – 7/10
Flourished in the No.10 role on Europa League duty and today showed that he is also adept in a deeper position. Looked to play the ball forwards and still regularly popped up on the edge of the box.
AMR: Erik Lamela – 7/10
Another step in the right direction after his morale-boosting goal against Qarabag. Involved in some nice interplay and won the ball on the edge of his own area to start the move in which Son scored.
AML: Nacer Chadli – 6/10
Guilty too often of slowing the play down in the final third and was hooked for Eriksen on 65 minutes. Now that the Dane is back to fitness, Chadli cannot afford to be complacent about his place.
AMC: Son Heung-Min – 8/10
Although he was given a helping hand by Alex McCarthy, the Korean now has three goals in three games in his Tottenham career. Was busy throughout and seems to be equally comfortable on either foot.
