Spurs player ratings – Mourinho favourite gets an 8 out of 10 against Everton
Tottenham ran out 1-0 winners over Everton on Monday night thanks to a Michael Keane’s own goal.
In a game of little action, the hosts saw off a toothless Toffees side to move up to eighth in the table.
Here’s how every Spurs player rated on the night.
Hugo Lloris, 6 – Had almost nothing to do bar a couple routine saves.
Serge Aurier, 7 – Offered little going forward but refreshing to see him be constantly alert defensively.
Toby Alderweireld, 6 – A little loose in possession at times but generally solid.
Eric Dier, 8 – Some crucial headers and interceptions made Dier an easy man of the match, showing why he is a Jose Mourinho favourite.
Ben Davies, 6 – Worked hard but was a bit wasteful when he got into advanced areas.
Moussa Sissoko, 6 – Showed his strength throughout but looked a bit lost past the halfway line.
Harry Winks, 6 – Neat on the ball but really quiet in the second half.
Giovani Lo Celso, 6 – Not his usual slick self but was a real battler, throwing himself into challenges.
Lucas Moura, 5 – Tried to make things happen but let down by poor hold-up play.
Son Heung-min, 5 – Did well to get a couple of shots away but he still doesn’t look fully fit.
Harry Kane, 5 – Looked zapped of energy again but helped Spurs see out the win with some experienced play in stoppage time.
Substitutes
Steven Bergwijn, N/A – Barely saw the ball.
Erik Lamela, N/A – Gave Spurs an outlet to hold the ball up late on.
Jan Vertonghen, N/A – Brought on to waste some seconds at the death.
