Match Ratings

Thought Dembele had a good game getting back to his best.
7.5 from me.

Yep, Dembele was immense bar the free kicks he gave away, but that was down to over eagerness to win the ball back and the Stoke players fell over at the slighest touch.

Dele was again ordinary by his standards

The rest were decent to good. They probably should have scored more, still not quite clinical enough in front of goal despite scoring 5

Dembele definitely worth more than a 6.5 for me. Some of his forward passes were a joy to see. We've been guilty of too many square passes in midfield recently and Dembele was always looking to move things forward. He was my man of the match.

Son had a great game but it wasn't flawless.

Agree Dembele was worth more. We look better when he plays.

I also don't think Son is worth a 10, because I remember he messed up a counterattack opportunity when we were 1-0 up. He'd still be MOTM though with an 8.5 rating.

What forcing a difficult save after winning the header in your own box, running it the full length of the pitch and creating a quality chance to shoot?

Have a day off

I wont argue with Son being MOTM but in my eyes Dembele was easily our second best player. He dominated the midfield and was involved in most good things that we did.

Kane also missed a sitter (by his own standards) so its a bit difficult to condemn Son for the chance he missed.

Dele was nothing special but then neither was eriksen for most of the game. I thought Trippier was poor to be honest, he can cross a good ball yes but considering the amount of bal he gets 99 times out of a 100 he knocks it inside and never goes past a player.

I would also criticise Davis, yes he delivered one decent cross but the amount of times he had the chance to deliver and failed was alarming.
