Lloris - 7 some great saves and couldn’t have done anything for their goal
Trippier - 6 Shocking first half and some terrible crossing all game. At fault for their goal but my god what a hit, the Burnley Beckham
Alderweirled- 7 bloke just oozes class
Sánchez - 6 average game
Vertonghen - 6.5 poorer on the ball than usual but pretty solid
Davies - 5.5 both the fullbacks struggles to make the most of their decent positioning
Dier - 6.5 solid enough and great ball to Kane
Dele - 7.5 so many good defensive moments and pretty key going forward
Moura - 7.5 a few fluffs but MOTM for me, tireless performance
Eriksen - 5 he’s had a bad start to the season
Kane - 7 looks like there is no need to worry, misses can be excused
Dembele - 7.5 his presence transformed the game for us
Lamela - 7 great run and assist and good harassing
Winks - n/a
Poch - some great substitutions for the second week in a row
Good win and top of the league

With Sanchez, Trippier and Davies how they were today we will struggle sheets to make any clean sheets this season
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sanchez was OK today, both Trippier and Davies were poor agreed.

What did you make of Sanchez today Sandy? I think he looked very shaky.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I thought he did OK. Fulham had a few breakaway efforts, but the second half, other than the goal offered not a lot of problems for Spurs. I was more concerned about our two full backs today, than the central defence.

2 massive positives for me 1 no Aurier or Sissoko in the Team
2 Poch is finally getting his tactics and subs spot on, bringing on Dembele and changing the formation really worked, not too often he gets it right and the timing was perfect, love the New suit too.
Question, cant see how Dier can fit into this team if all fully fit.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah cus trippier was superb today thank fack aurier didn't start
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Trippier was awful, other than he scored a lovely freekick. I have seen schoolboys cross better than he did today.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Was being sarcastic Sandy, mocking the unnecessary criticism of Aurier
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh OK mate, sorry I was bit behind with that then.

Other than the Aurier criticism, I agree with everything else d&d said though.

Funny how the full back situation has flipped. Couple of years back it was arguably Spurs' strongest area. Now with Walker gone and Rose seemingly past it, it's arguably the weakest

Hopefully Walker-Peters gets a proper go this season

Yeah especially the thing about Pochs suit

I think KWP and Rose would be a great full back partnership if they got a run of games. It's never going to happen though

#thfc Pochettino says none of the players in today's squad have asked him to leave. He adds Spurs should have defended their lead better, with 3 centre-backs, and that Trippier's crossing was a little disappointing - even if he was the hero with his FK
