Tottenham ended Chelseas unbeaten start to the Premier League and leaped above their London rivals in the table with a fine 3-1 victory at Wembley.Spurs were dominant throughout and claimed a deserved win through goals from impressive trio Dele Alli, Harry Kane and Heung-min Son.
5Hugo Lloris 7
Hes been flappy recently, but Spurs captain was assured when called upon and that wasnt very often. Deserved a clean sheet, but could do little to prevent Olivier Girouds late header.Serge Aurier 8
Had the unenviable task of marking Eden Hazard at right-back, but the Ivorian excelled. The Belgians growing frustration as the game went on was testament to his performance, and he whipped a few dangerous crosses when he got forward, too.
5Toby Alderweireld 7
Commanded the Spurs back-four brilliantly and also came close to scoring. Would be a blow to lose a player of his quality, as it looks like may happen in the coming months.Juan Foyth 7
Probably the 20-year-olds biggest game in a Spurs shirt, and did he looked fazed? Not one jot. Combined well with Alderweireld, with Alvaro Morata not getting a sniff all game, although he lost sight of Giroud as the Frenchman headed in a late consolation for Chelsea.Toby Alderweireld 7
Commanded the Spurs back-four brilliantly and also came close to scoring. Would be a blow to lose a player of his quality, as it looks like may happen in the coming months.Ben Davies 7
Solid performance from the Welshman, who frustrated Chelseas Brazilian flyer Willian all evening and linked up well with left-sided partner Son.
5Moussa Sissoko 8
The Frenchman has resurrected his Spurs career, much to everyones surprise, and he was again all over the pitch tonight. He broke up play, kept Tottenhams midfield ticking over and made some great forward passes. Superb all-round display.Eric Dier 7
An assured performance from the England man, who broke up Chelseas attacking surges and kept things simple as he hovered just in front of the defence.Christian Eriksen 7
His future at the club may be uncertain, but its not affecting his form. The creative genius of Tottenhams team, he got an assist and is the sort of quality player the club just cant afford to lose.Dele Alli (subbed on 87 mins) 8
Another game against Chelsea, another goal for Dele. His header from Christian Eriksens free kick was his sixth in his last five games against the Blues, and he hit the crossbar later on too. Great display by the England man.Heung-min Son (subbed on 78 mins) 9
Terrorised the Chelsea back-four today and scored a stunning solo goal after a brilliant run from the right flank. Its obvious to see why Spurs fans love him. His 50th goal for the club, too, although many supporters will point out he should have more than that, given the amount of chances he has.
5Harry Kane 8
Is there a more complete centre forward in the game right now? He just does everything, and when he isnt giving defenders nightmares with his movement and with the ball in his feet, hes putting in slide tackles and helping out his midfield. Capped his performance with a goal, although missed a great chance for another in the second-half.SUB: Erik Lamela N/A
His silky footwork to take the ball past Eden Hazard had the Spurs fans cheering, but the Argentine did little else in his ten minutes cameo.SUB: Harry Winks N/A
Came on with just three minutes to go to relieve Alli, the No.8 saw little action in the games closing moments.
