Tottenham player ratings vs Arsenal: Hugo Lloris increasingly feels like a liability after his latest clanger

Arsenal completed the double over Tottenham and earned a first away win in a north London derby since 2014 to increase the pressure on Antonio Conte.

A Hugo Lloris own goal and Martin Odegaard’s excellent strike gave the League leaders a deserved 2-0 lead by half-time and although Spurs produced their customary second-half rally they could not find a way past the impressive Aaron Ramsdale.

Dan Kilpatrick was at White Hart Lane to rate the Spurs players...

Hugo Lloris 4

Dropped a clanger to gift Arsenal the lead. Made smart saves to deny Odegaard and Eddie Nketiah twice, but increasingly feels like a liability.

Cristian Romero 5

Booked for one of a series of silly challenges in a display lacking composure.

Eric Dier 5

Stretched and pressed by the hard-working Nketiah in an uncomfortable afternoon.

Clement Lenglet 6

Had a tricky afternoon against Bukayo Saka.

Matt Doherty 4

Forced backwards by Gabriel Martinelli and offered little threat down the right flank.

Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg 4

Outnumbered in midfield and outclassed technically by Arsenal’s three.

Pape Matar Sarr 6

Did OK in the circumstances but this was a real baptism of fire for the youngster.

Ryan Sessegnon 5

Got in some great positions but lacked a final ball and killer instinct. Backed off Saka for the opening goal.

Dejan Kulusevski 6

Came alive in the second half and was a threat down the right, twice going close with trademark balls to the far post.

Harry Kane 6

Remains one short of Jimmy Greaves all-time goal record after forcing a sharp save from Ramsdale.

Heung-min Son 4

Should have equalised at 1-0 down but shot straight at Ramsdale. Proved a big moment in the match.

Substitutes

Richarlison (Doherty 70’) 6

Made a nuisance of himself and tested Ramsdale with a low effort.

Yves Bissouma (Sarr 75’) 5

Struggled with an ankle injury in the build up and unable to help turn the game.

Ivan Perisic (Sessegnon 75’) 5 His introduction felt too late and, assuming he was fit, it was a surprise he did not start.

Bryan Gil (Kulusevski 87’) N/ABen Davies (Lenglet 87’) N/A

Not used: Forster, Skipp, Sanchez, Emerson.
