Spurs half time ratings vs Sheffield United – Very little to be happy about

Tottenham head into the break against Paul Heckingbottom’s side currently level at 0-0 with the north Londoners once again looking unsettled.

Fraser Forster: Nothing more than a spectator for the vast majority of the half. 6.

Pedro Porro: Making his FA Cup debut with Emerson Royal left back in London. Has done some good things but also looked nervy on occasions. 6.

Davinson Sanchez: Played a good through ball to create the opportunity for Richarlison. Has to be stronger in the air, when he failed to beat Sharpe to a header which led to Hojbjerg’s error. 5.

Eric Dier: Has done well in the heart of the Spurs defence in the rarity when the Blades have troubled the defence. 6.

Ben Davies: Back in his usual role of left central defender. 6.

Ivan Perisic: Playing in a very advanced role on the left. Was on the receiving end of a very nasty tackle from Baldock in which he was lucky not to suffer a serious injury. 6.

Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg: Outshined by Sarr, needs to step up and get the ball forward. Made a horrible mistake with his backpass header which nearly led to a goal. 5.

Pape Matar Sarr: Has had some nice touches and the best of the two midfielders. 6.

Lucas Moura: Had an early opportunity and was in two minds of whether to pass to Richarlison but instead saw his shot blocked. Has looked to come deep and pick up the ball to try to get things going. 7.

Heung-min Son: A quiet first half from the South Korean who had his first shot on goal in the 37th minute. 5.

Richarlison: Did well to keep himself onside but snatched his shot which saw it rise high over the bar when he has to be hitting the target. 5.
