Mousa Dembele – 7/10
Although Ciaran Clark will be disappointed not to have stopped the Belgian, he showed incredible strength to hold off the Villa defender before cooly slotting home the opener.
Christian Eriksen – 6/10
The Danish international quietly went about his business on Monday night although he will have bigger influences in games moving forward.
Harry Kane – 6/10
Wasn’t always a threat, but kept going until the end and was rewarded by bagging his fifth goal of the season with a great finish to kill the game.
Substitutes
Ryan Mason – 5/10
Didn’t have much time to catch up with the speed of the game and have an influence on proceedings.
Ben Davies – 5/10
A late replacement for the injured Rose, stepped in and did his part in protecting the lead.
Joshua Onomah – 5/10
Limited minutes, but showed his confidence with a strong run and effort to test Brad Guzan in added time.
