Gabriel Martinelli: Was a big threat down the left and caused Emerson Royal and Davinson Sanchez some early problems. Bukayo Saka: Did some good pressing early on in the game to win the ball high and was a big threat in the Spurs box. Granit Xhaka: Was doing a good job of pressing high and helping to unpick the Spurs backline early on but his game changed after the red. Did a decent job of screening the backline while trying to contribute to the attack in the second half, but needs to improve his finishing.
