HUGO LLORIS:
Had a fabulous match. Easily Spurs’ Man of the Match with some exquisite shot-stopping, especially the save off Mertsacker’s header and off Vertonghen’s deflection gave Spurs’ a valuable point.
RATING: 4/5
YOUNES KABOUL:
An inspiring performance from the Tottenham captain. Made several crucial blocks to cut off dangerous Arsenal attacks and was seen desperately trying to raise his team’s morale. Struggled a bit to match Arsenal’s pace though.
RATING: 3.5/5
JAN VERTONGHEN:
Nowhere near the performances from his first season at Tottenham. Was troubled by the speed of the Arsenal attacks and was caught out quite often. Was saved the blushes on two occasions- one, when a shot dangerously deflected off him was brilliantly saved off the line by Lloris and two, when his counter-attack in the dying minutes of the game fizzled away and gave Arsenal a platform to counter, but was parried to safety.
RATING: 2/5
DANNY ROSE:
Had a tough time defending against Chamberlain. Was outrun several times, and could neither provide anything going front. Disappointing overall.
RATING: 2/5
KYLE NAUGHTON:
Looked good in the first half, but performance dipped in the second half, as a barrage of Arsenal attacks started to come from his side. His performance highlights why Spurs need Kyle Walker as soon as possible.
RATING: 2/5
RYAN MASON:
The debutant was one of Spurs’ better players of the day. He and Lamela were the only ones who were not reluctant to make the runs into the Arsenal half. Need to keep possession better and improve his passing though.
RATING: 3/5
ETIENNE CAPOUE:
Acting like a 5th defender, Capoue rarely provided anything in attack, but stood strong against the sea of Arsenal attacks, with 5 tackles and interceptions each.
RATING:3 /5
NACER CHADLI:
Was wasteful and ineffective until his goal. Missed one of Spurs’ best chances with a loose and wayward shot in the first half. However, the goal was neatly finished.
RATING: 2.5/5
CHRISTIAN ERIKSEN:
Except for a free-kick and the tackle to get the ball off Flamini which culminated in the goal, Eriksen was not even in the picture. Have not found his form under Pochettino and the game against Arsenal was one of his worst of the season so far.
RATING: 1.5/5
ERIC LAMELA:
Even though wasteful in possession, Lamela was the only one in the Spurs’ side who showed some intent to attack. With none of his teammates for support though, Lamela’s moves upfront almost always turned out ineffective. Provided the assist for Chadli’s goal with a neat pass.
RATING: 2.5/5
EMMANUEL ADEBAYOR:
Never looked like a centre-forward, always drifting away to the side. Could not create any sort of impact. Only decent moment was the one shot that forced a save off Szczesny, but even that might have just hit the post.
RATING: 1.5/5
AARON LENNON:
Was introduced to counter Arsenal’s pace but he does not seem to have it anymore. Could not create any sort of impact despite his experience of 17 North London derbies before.
RATING: 1.5/5
NABIL BENTALEB:
The young Algerian looked much assured than most of his teammates, and was solid in the limited pitch time he got.
RATING: 2.5/5
ERIC DIER:
Dropped to the bench for Kyle Naughton, Dier looked better than him defensively after coming on for Rose late in the game. Would have been a better choice over Naughton to start at right-back.
RATING: 2.5/5
