Opinion: Tottenham player ratings from the 5-0 win over Norwich City
Tottenham Hotspur picked up all three points this afternoon in the final Premier League match of the season… and Spurs fans everywhere know what that means.
Let’s take a look at how the individual players got on:
Hugo Lloris – 8 – A captain’s performance leading from the back. Not his busiest day between the sticks but he did what he needed to do.
Emerson Royal – 8.5 – Looks a different player over the past few weeks, like he’s received an injection of confidence. Another great display down the right-hand side, both offensively and defensively.
Davinson Sanchez – 8 – Coming in and replacing Romero for some big games has been far from easy, but Spurs haven’t missed the Argentine at all, and that is a huge compliment to Sanchez. Solid again today.
Eric Dier – 7.5 – A slight hiccup and nearly, a maybe should have, handed Norwich an equaliser at 1-0. However, he put that behind him and defended well for the rest of the game, as well as picking out some nice passes into midfield and attack.
Ben Davies – 8.5 – Threw himself in front of a couple of blocks and was also a danger going forward too. So well suited to the left centre-back role.
Ryan Sessegnon – 8 – He seems to be going from strength to strength at left-wing-back, getting up and down from box to box all day long. Another fantastic performance today.
Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg – 8.5 – A superb pass over the top to set Bentancur away for the opening goal. He really dictated the tempo in midfield too. Superb performance.
Rodrigo Bentancur – 9.5 – Two assists from a deep-lying creative midfielder is exactly what Tottenham need more of! Bentancur had the space to get forward today and was deadly once he got there. What a January signing he has turned out to be.
Heung-min Son – 10 – He did it! Golden Boot for Son! And boy did he have to earn it, scoring a sensational brace. We’re so proud of you, Sonny!
Dejan Kulusevski – 9.5 – He has so much quality on the ball, especially in tight areas and 1v1 situations. Really nice for him to cap off his sensational six months with a couple of goals, one of them being a beauty of a curler.
Harry Kane – 9 – Harry Kane does what Harry Kane does. The Spurs striker has been immense in the second half of the season and he showed his class again today. A goal and an assist to close an exciting campaign for Harry.
Substitutes:
Lucas Moura – 7.5 – Came off the bench and assisted the important goal that got Heung-min Son going. Superb squad option all season, well done Lucas!
Harry Winks – 7 – Nice to see him get some minutes, especially with his future up in the air. He will forever be one of our own.
Steven Bergwijn – 7 – It hasn’t been the season Bergwijn wanted, but he deserved to get perhaps one last outing in a Lilywhite shirt.
