Tottenham player ratings vs Sheff United: Richarlison and Perisic's huge impact

  /  autty

Here are our Tottenham Hotspur player ratings after their dramatic 2-1 victory at home against Sheffield United in the Premier League on Saturday

Guglielmo Vicario

Made a decent stop with his foot although the offside flag went up soon after. Couldn't really see Hamer's low shot that came through a cluster of legs and was right inside the post. 6

Pedro Porro

Worked hard up and down the right flank and whipped some crosses in but wasn't able to find a way through. 6

Cristian Romero

Looked dominant for much of the game but did mistime his jump for United's goal. 8

Micky van de Ven

Superb at the back and very little got past the big Dutchman. 8

Destiny Udogie

Not quite as effective as recent displays but still a presence down the left. 7

Pape Matar Sarr

Had the first effort of the game with a low shot from outside the box that Forderingham held. Some nice touches from then on but without too much impact. 6

Yves Bissouma

Went on a jinking run just after the 15 minute mark only to be denied by the keeper down low. Got better and better as a driving force as the game wore on. 8

James Maddison

Again Spurs' chief creator and he had a couple of efforts at goal in the first half and kept trying to push the team forward in added time despite looking exhausted. 7

Dejan Kulusevski

He had covered more distance in the Premier League before the game and he never stopped running in this game, trying to make things happen and got his reward in those final moments with a rocket of a finish after a great move. 8

Son Heung-min

Had a curling shot palmed round by Foderingham on 20 minutes. Worked away in the central role but couldn't find a way through before coming off 10 minutes before the end. 6

Manor Solomon

A lively presence in the first half and sent a couple of shots over the bar in the second but his influence waned. 6

Subs

Brennan Johnson

Caused some problems with his pace and movement and was something else United had to think about. 6

Richarlison

The script was written for him to come off the bench and play a huge part in the game's finale. First he headed home Perisic's corner and then he set up Kulusevski for the winner. What an impact! 9

Ivan Perisic

The Croatian also showed how much he can affect matches, grabbing the assist with his corner for Richarlison and then his quick flick put the Brazilian away to set up the winner. 8

Emerson Royal

Bright energy to the right flank in the final minutes. 6

Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg

Played a role in the winner and showed the experience and cool head Postecoglou needed in those frantic final minutes. 7
