Tottenham fell to a 2-1 loss to West Ham in the Premier League on Saturday and here are our Spurs player ratings after the London derby defeat.
Thomas Frank made three changes to his team from the FA Cup exit to Aston Villa with new signing Conor Gallagher, fresh from his £34.7million move from Atletico Madrid, straight into the ling-up. Joao Palhinha missed out no the matchday squad with Archie Gray partnering Gallagher in the centre of the pitch.
Randal Kolo Muani replaced the injured Richarlison while Cristian Romero was back from suspension in the centre of defence in place of Kevin Danso.
A bad 10 seconds defined the first half just 15 minutes in. First Ben Davies suffered what looked like a bad injury to his left leg, immediately signalling to the bench, and then Cyrsencio Summerville cut inside Pedro Porro and Gallagher and hit a shot that deflected in off Micky van de Ven.
Spurs found a leveller when Cristian Romero headed home Pedro Porro's cross but they did not do enough to find the win and it was the visitors who grabbed it instead when substitute Callum Wilson scrambled home the ball in added time for West Ham's first win in 11 Premier League games as the Tottenham fans in the south stand sang 'you're getting sacked in the morning' to Frank.
Here are our Spurs player ratings:
Guglielmo Vicario
Couldn't do much about Summerville's deflected effort. Made a great save to stop Soucek's chested effort after the half-hour mark and another full length one to push out Mavropanos' header. Claimed he was held during the corner that Wilson scored from but he just looked weak. That completely undid what had otherwise been a performance with a couple of big saves. 5
Pedro Porro
Too easily beaten by Summerville for the goal and the winger caused him plenty of problems. The Spaniard did curl in a delicious cross for Romero to head home and made a big late block to deny Wilson only for the same player to score from the ensuing corner which knocked his score up. 6
Cristian Romero
Picked up his eighth yellow card of the season but made up for that with a powerful header to equalise in the second half. 7
Micky van de Ven
Unfortunately deflection for Summersville's goal which he would not have seen. Made a huge last-gasp block to deny Summerville not too long before Romero's leveller. Looked gutted at the final whistle. 7
Ben Davies
Lasted just 15 minutes before suffering what looked a bad left leg injury. N/A
Conor Gallagher
Involved in a clash of heads just 15 seconds in but shook it off. Brought some energy to proceedings but his involvement in Summerville's goal was poor. Gave everything in the second half to no avail. 6
Archie Gray
Put in some big challenges and embarked on a few strong runs. Picked up a yellow card and a knock in the first half which meant he did not return after the break. 6
Wilson Odobert
Had a header (shoulder) saved by Areola from close range. Did very little else and should have come off instead of Tel. 4
Xavi Simons
Manages to look threatening one moment and then struggle to beat a man in the next. Needs to grab games by the scruff of the neck but doesn't. 5
Mathys Tel
Looked dangerous down the left and put in the cross that led to Odobert's saved header and sent an effort himself just past the right-hand post in the first half. Continued to be the best of Spurs' poor front line only to find himself taken off for Solanke much to his disappointment and the crowd's. 6
Randal Kolo Muani
You could have forgotten he was playing at times. He produces the odd good moment and then slides into the background again. Doesn't throw himself at the ball like a striker should. 3
Subs
Djed Spence
Got shouted at by Frank after Davies went down injured as he was not ready to come on. Had a chance soon after entering the fray with Areola saving his follow-up from Odobert's header. Didn't offer much going forward otherwise. 5
Yves Bissouma
Turned back the clock with an energetic display after coming on at the break for his first minutes of the season. Made some good interceptions and sent some shots at goal. Did make a mess of his jump to leave Wilson free in the box for the shot that led to the late corner West Ham scored from. Overall though, with so little game time this season, it was a surprise how good he looked. 7
Dominic Solanke
Got around half an hour but didn't see much of the ball. 5
Lucas Bergvall
Came on for Odobert for the final moments and looked more likely to find a way through. N/A
