Tottenham player ratings: Kulusevski cameo key but Werner and Forster abject

Hugo Lloris - 7

Had nothing to do for much of the game but made a smart save to deny Timo Werner in the second half. Was bailed out by his defenders on a couple of occasions though, particularly when Raheem Sterling broke clear.

Emerson Royal - 5

Defended diligently but offered little going forward. Was caught out of position a few times, but his teammates bailed him out.

Cristian Romero - 7

Another solid performance from the Argentine defender. Made some crucial blocks and tackles, and was a threat from set-pieces.

Eric Dier - 6

Not as convincing as Romero, but still did a solid job. Was caught out of position a couple of times, but made up for it with some good tackles.

Ben Davies - 6

Defended diligently but offered little going forward. Was caught out of position a few times, but his teammates bailed him out.

Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg - 7

Was typically industrious in midfield, and broke up play well. Was not as effective going forward as he can be, but still put in a decent performance.

Rodrigo Bentancur - 7

Another good performance from the Uruguayan midfielder. Was creative and incisive in possession, and also worked hard defensively.

Dejan Kulusevski - 8

Came on as a substitute in the second half and made an immediate impact. Scored a stunning goal and was a constant threat to the Chelsea defence. Was unlucky not to get on the scoresheet again.

Was lively and dangerous throughout, but was not able to find the back of the net. Had a few good chances, but was denied by Kepa Arrizabalaga on each occasion.

Harry Kane - 6

Was not as influential as he can be, but still played a role in Tottenham's victory. Dropped deep to collect the ball and link up play, and also had a few good chances to score. Was unlucky not to get on the scoresheet.
