Hugo Lloris 7, Eric Dier 4; Mason Mount 8, Timo Werner 7: Tottenham v Chelsea player ratings

Thomas Tuchel maintains unbeaten start, and third straight clean sheet, with 1-0 win at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

TOTTENHAM PLAYER RATINGS: Hugo Lloris - 7, Made a brave stop to deny Pulisic, stretched to head Dier’s back pass away and did well to save Mason Mount’s effort. Reuters

Serge Aurier - 6, Had Spurs’ most meaningful effort of the first half and made a last-ditch tackle to stop Werner scoring. AFP

Toby Alderweireld - 5, Good in his positional play to deny Spurs at times but had moments where he was caught out by Chelsea’s quick attacks. Booked for a challenge on Mount. AFP

Eric Dier - 4, Clumsily gave away the penalty for the game’s only goal and almost scored an own goal with a terrible back pass. This was far from his best game. PA

Ben Davies - 6, Often looked isolated, especially when Chelsea doubled up on him in the first half. The Welshman put in a resolute performance in tough circumstances. EPA

Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg - 5, Booked for a foul on Jorginho and came close to getting a second on occasion. A disappointing display. AP

Moussa Sissoko - 6, There were times when the Frenchman dropped too deep in the first half, but he showed tactical improvements in the second period. Reuters

Steven Bergwijn - 5, Worked hard defensively but offered nowhere near enough in an attacking sense. AFP

Tanguy Ndombele - 5, His threat was largely nullified by Kovacic and Jorginho, which is likely why he was brought off with just over 20 minutes left. AFP

Son Heung-Min - 5, There were slight flashes of his quality, but it was a largely tame performance from the South Korea international. Getty Images

Carlos Vinicius - 4, Spent pretty much the whole game on the periphery waiting for his chance and then missed the target when it finally came late on. AFP

SUBS: Erik Lamela (Ndombele, 69’) – 6, Arguably Spurs’ greatest creative influence after coming on, being one of the few who constantly tried to make things happen. PA

Lucas Moura (Bergwijn, 69’) – 5, Much like Bergwijn, the Brazilian struggled to have any real attacking impact of note. AFP

CHELSEA PLAYER RATINGS: Edouard Mendy - 6, Made some saves, though they were all very routine aside from the stop to deny Lamela. AP

Cesar Azpilicueta - 7, Got the ball forward quickly and effectively at times, while maintaining good defensive concentration throughout. AP

Thiago Silva - 6, Looked dominant and composed in his play before being forced off due to injury. Reuters

Antonio Rudiger - 8, Stepped out of the backline with the ball well and was very solid in his defensive play, barely giving the Spurs attack a chance. PA

Reece James - 7, Davies probably couldn’t wait to get away from the Englishman due to his attacking threat. James also defended efficiently. Reuters

Jorginho - 7, Scored the only goal of the game with a clinical penalty and was reliable in possession. AFP

Mateo Kovacic - 6, Drove forward with the ball well but failed to make the most of the threat that running posed a few times. AFP

Marcos Alonso - 6, Showed that he can defend well and got some good passes off, but may have been hoping to show better quality in the final third. Getty Images

Callum Hudson-Odoi - 6, Looked threatening when he ran at the Spurs defence but lacked the quality in his end product at times. PA

Timo Werner - 7, Had a bright start and that intensity continued for large periods of the game. Won the penalty that secured victory. PA

Mason Mount - 8, The clear stand out player in this game in terms of creativity, picking up the ball in great pockets of space and picking out good passes. AP

SUBS: Andreas Christensen (Silva, 36’) – 7, Settled in well immediately and was solid throughout, getting his head onto some dangerous balls into the box. Reuters

Christian Pulisic (Hudson-Odoi, 65’) – 6, Made some good runs forward but his decision making was a bit off at points. Booked for a foul near the halfway line. AFP

N’Golo Kante, (Kovacic, 73’) – N/R, Generally showed good awareness in his defending, though he was booked for a foul on Moura. PA

Thomas Tuchel extended his unbeaten start as Chelsea manager after his side claimed a 1-0 Premier League win at Tottenham Hotspur on Thursday.

German Tuchel, who replaced Frank Lampard last week, has now seen his side take seven points from his three Premier League games in charge with no goals conceded.

Jorginho's 24th-minute penalty, awarded for a clumsy foul on Timo Werner by Eric Dier, did not do justice to Chelsea's domination of a Tottenham side who have now lost three league games in a row for the first time since 2012.

Chelsea had numerous chances to stretch their lead after the break with Callum Hudson-Odoi and Mason Mount going close, although Tottenham striker Carlos Vinicius, playing in place of the injured Harry Kane, headed one glorious late chance wide.

Chelsea were well worth the victory that lifted them into sixth spot with 36 points from 22 games while Mourinho's Tottenham, who topped the table in December, have slumped to eighth on 33 points.
