Jones 6 not much he could do, but not great.
Johnson 5 had his moments, some good, some very poor
Enrique 7.5 solid throughout, good involvement in Suarez's goal
Carra 6 if not for the set pieces, he'd have had a great game
Agger 6 same
Lucas 6 better towards the end, but anonymous at times
Gerrard 7.5 not his imperious best, but good passing and put away his penalty
Coutinho 7.5 excellent at first, but clearly not fit yet
Downing 8 can we say that he's come good now? 5 goals and 6 assists in all comps is much improved. He was an engine today and his tireless running paid off with the second goal
Suarez 9 not even close to his best, and spurs still couldn't handle him
Sturridge 6 had his moments of good movement and good passing (that long one to the lefts side of the box was nice), but no end product today
Allen 7 quietly changed the pace of the game. gave us more energy and more of the ball.
Henderson no score. ran hard, but not much time to do anything.

nonsense...we were good for 10 mins after we scored the first,
spurs totally owned us..they were so comfortable that walker got stupid and let us back into it.

Agreed about Dembélé!
If we had him (or a similar player) there would be good cover for our defence line!

Agree on Dembele. I never understood us pushing for Dempsey, for me Dembele was always the far better player at Fulham. He reminds me a bit of Zidane in his play.

Spurs may have been marginally better, or at least more composed, throughout much of the match - but I really think people go overboard in their match assessments. Some people would have you believe that they played us off the park - and they didn't. They controlled it after we went 1-0 up - and we controlled it after they went 2-1 up. Other than that it was fairly even.
Similarly, people would have us believe that Man Utd played Real Madrid off the park and were hard done by to lose. Again, I didn't see that at all. Sometimes one team is in the ascendancy by a matter of degrees - and some fans just don't know how to interpret the nuances of the game. Both games were quite close - and the winner is the team that scores the most goals. +2
