Tottenham player ratings v Southampton: International duo struggle in 5/10 displays
Substitutes
Erik Lamela – 5: Brought on for Heung-min Son with 20 minutes to play. Found chances hard to come by, so should have done much better when the ball came to him four yards out among a host of bodies in the Southampton box.
Kieran Trippier – 5: Replacing the injured Serge Aurier just after the 70 minute mark, Trippier suffered the same difficulties as his full back counterpart, the Saints throwing pace and trickery his way from the moment he stepped on the pitch. Ended up getting booked for a foul minutes later.
Victor Wanyama – 6: The Kenyan enforcer was brought on with just five minutes to play and really had very little effect on proceedings or the final score as the home side pushed to find a winner.
