Player Ratings vs Ajax

Hello

It's been a while since we've had one, so here it goes (EdinSpur )

Lloris - 7/10 - Made some key saves from Tadic and Ziyech, kicking a little suspect as usual, couldn't do anything with the two goals

Trippier - 3/10 - Utterly useless and I'm being generous. lost de Ligt from the corner and got caught out of position for the 2nd goal.

Jan - 6/10 - Solid as always without being outstanding, good distribution and made some key tackles,

Toby – 6.5/10 – Again solid like Jan, very comfortable with the ball. Made no mistakes

Rose – 7/10 – Excellent and finally getting a good run in the team, popped up everywhere and was vital for the 2nd goal, great megs.

Wanyama – 4/10 – Absolute passenger and was rightfully hooked at half time, lost the ball in areas and didn’t look comfortable at all.

Sissoko – 8.5/10 – phenomenal yet again and drives the midfield on his own, if he could shoot, pass, cross he’d be world class.

Eriksen – 5.5/10 – Didn’t do an awful lot, how many times does this lad hit the first man on a corner. I could be wrong but I don’t remember anything of note from him.

Alli – 8/10 – Fantastic first half and even better second, back to his old self and looked better dropping in and turning and running at Ajax, key for both goals at the end.

Son – 6.5/10 – Didn’t have the best games but did draw Ajax about at the back and created gaps, consistently ran and tried to be positive.

Lucas – 9/10 – Of course he gets MOTM, hatty in a semi-final to drag us into the final. Very positive on the ball and worked incredibly hard, took all three chances when they came to him,

Subs
Lamela – 6/10 – Ran loads
Llorente – 8/10 – Made the difference and Blind/de Ligt couldn’t handle the route one style, bossed their CB’s and absolutely changed the game for us.
Davies – 6/10 – Fresh legs needed at the time, did a job.

ALL SCORES ARE FINAL..

The reason we won was Llorente. Sissoko crucial to the game. To get to the CL final.

Who tf thought we'd be saying this stuff last year

Ajax' defending on Llorente was pretty pathetic. Dragged their defensive line much deeper, occupied their CBs and won everything in the air. Everything.
What I still struggle to understand is how they got caught up the pitch for that first Spurs counter goal. Were they trying to win 5-0?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

because they knew they needed another goal to be certain
----------------------------------------------------------------------

When you're 3-0 up with 35 mins to go, you don't need another goal to be certain of anything. Just seemed rather naive at the time. European sides have been quite the mental midgets this season - starting from PSG's ridiculous loss to Man U.

Arsenal fan preaching about mental strength heard it all now

I think this is right!
Also, Llorente made the difference, upsetting their defense and making opportunites for Lucas and Delli.
