Tottenham player ratings v Bournemouth – Abysmal, lazy, unforgiving, load of rubbish

By Bruce Grove -

There was a time when one did the Tottenham player ratings that it was an enjoyable experience, not no more, not after the rubbish that has been dished up recently.

The performance against Bournemouth was awful and I could use a whole host of negative words to describe what we witnessed this evening but on this occasion, I will let the actual ratings do the talking for me.

Hugo Lloris – 7

Probably Spurs man of the match, he made a crucial save at the end of the game to deny Bournemouth a winner.

Ben Davies – 5

What does he actually offer? nothing going forward and his defending is suspect.

Toby Alderweireld – 5

Did his job as a defender I suppose but he wants to give up passing because that he is no good at.

Jan Vertonghen – 5

Like Toby did his defending but he can pass a ball so no idea why he could not string a pass or two together tonight.

Serge Aurier – 5

That he was not our worst player tonight tells you how bad the rest played.

Harry Winks – 5

Pure average, nothing else to say

Giovani Lo Celso – 4

Without a doubt the worst he has played all season.

Moussa Sissoko – 4

Anonymous which meant he made no howlers is the best compliment i can give.

Steve Bergwijn – 4

He is like a bird that has had his wings clipped, well, he played like that anyway.

Erik Lamela – 5

He tries, such a shame he has almost no product at all to sell.

Harry Kane – 5

No service at all but not getting a single shot off all game is just not good enough from a player of his calibre.

Subs

Son Heung-min -4

No upgrade whatsoever on a poor Bergwijn

Tanguy Ndombele -4

Easy to see why Mourinho does not trust him he looked knackered just warming up.

Lucas Moura – 4

Made zero difference

Manager

Jose Mourinho – 3

The buck stops with him, he earns a fortune, in the millions, per year and if that is the best he can get from this squad then he is stealing a living.

Agreed about the Man City game. I think we all want to see a player, hoping he’ll get his act together, but if he played for another team in the Prem I wouldn’t be impressed.

The jury is still out on N’Dombele.If you sign a player and pay £53.8m he must be really good at something ,shooting,defending,tackling,heading, what was it that we saw to buy him? I take one look at the way he runs and wonder was it his cameo against City in the CL or some clips from the French league. He improved the team when he came on for the injured Lo Celso but on last nights display, I didn’t see anything special.

Makes sense, I hope you’re right. At least Ndombele showed his worth when he got his chance!

Mourinho has more points per game this season than Nuno, he has the 7th highest out of 27 managers used in the PL this season,I hate to say it but IF we beat Arsenal he will go above Arteta to the sixth best points tally of all managers.The five above him Klopp,Pep,Frank,Rodgers and Ole have been there longer with bigger funds. Mourinho needs time his average points per game is 1,59,Poch was sacked in 14th place with an average points per game of 1.16,he rates about 17th out of 27 managers this season.

LoCelso hurt himself when tackling early in the game and was grimacing in pain,he hardly got involved much after that and was replaced at HT.Some people think he was being rested,I would be surprised if he starts on Sunday.

I know what you mean because when he first played I thought he was a dud. Against West Ham and Everton he was always the out ball. Always there to receive and recycle it. The kind of thing Modric did very well, but he was different class, who started slowly too. Lo Celso has struggled (and the team too) when the opposition have pressed. Sheffield Utd did this well v us and Bournemouth did it, just not so well. Lo Celso’s end product definitely has to improve, but he has never been prolific. The players like him and Modric aren’t. I think it would be a good idea if we had an attacking plan, but good players make things happen. No one in the Spurs team is doing that and Son and Kane are amongst the best attacking players in the EPL, and they are doing worse than Lo Celso. Something is very wrong at Spurs right now. Don’t get me wrong, Lo Celso hasn’t been amazing and he’s no Modric, but I think he could do very well if he was surrounded by better players. Not getting Bruno was a massive error of judgement, but Levy has them hanging all over his body.

A team with anything about them would have beaten Spurs tonight. Bournemouth will be kicking themselves for being equally as rubbish

Could be but how do you pay to replace them all apart from Kane, Son and Dele they won’t bring in much money.

They all know that Jose wants them all gone (those that played in the CL final) apart from son. They had their chance.

Fernandez…case and point on how penny pinching is false economy. He actually openly started he thought he was coming to us, so no excuse on player not wanting it. Purely a cheap skate move from levy.

He didn’t do as well as people are saying, he just didn’t look quite so bad as the rest. Sort of average as opposed to poor.

Not defending his poor show, but have you ever worked for someone that so publicly made you feel so bad, I have, trust me when I say it did not bring the best out in me. You either go over cautious, scared to prove them right, or don’t care and make silly mistakes or simply don’t bother trying. Man management has a lot to play. When Poch was here we described him as the new Moussa.

He’s rubbish, apart from one lucky shot that was going wide against Everton that got deflected in, he’s had zero goals and zero assists, so what exactly do you base your views on? Eriksen would have had far more influence than that, and had we bought Bruno Fernandez he’d be running the show by now. But we always have to take the cheap option don’t we?

I’ve been saying all along that Lo Celso is over-rated. You get what you pay for and Levy loves a bargain.

I will not be surprised if Harry Kane requests a transfer when this season ends. Why wait? Why put yourself through another year of this? This is going to take at least two years to get a competitive team on the field.

Pity he didn’t show it today against a team that have been the worst in the league since the restart. Unless, of course you think he did well today?

Not today and not against Sheffield Utd. He did well against West Spam and Everton, hence my point.

I know exactly what you mean. His actions don’t flow, they looked forced. Simple passes look cumbersome when made. He’s far from fit too. I am confident I’d beat this fella on the Beep test.

You’re being kind again. 5s? I wish. Lo Celso is a bi-polar footballer. He’s either done pretty well or stunk the place out. I’d give Skipp and Cirkin ago now, at least they’d want to show what they can do. So, so painful. Get a fork, because these players are done!

I actually thought he was trying and had a few good touches before running up a blind alley. Definitely not a total lost cause like some are making out. Definitely not £60 mil either though.

Will be happy with 3 ready to go ballers this window, and like you said “couple more next window and so on.

The minimum requirement this summer is four quality players ready to start in the first team and then maybe two more in January and the same again the following two windows.

Saw the last twenty minutes of the game and I did not like the look of N’Dombele. His passing technique was weird to say the least. There was no zip on the ball, he passes and stands still watching the other players. He has a curious way of crouching over the ball. I’m not sure that is the same player I watched on his highlight reel in French football. I’m afraid to say Mourinho was one hundred percent right. That is not a £60 million footballer. Worrying, very worrying.
