Or the fact that about 3 players picked the wrong pass in the lead up to Bong having the ball in an isolated position under pressure. There were A LOT of mistakes in the leas up to the goal. Bong’s was just one.
But Kayal who was superb, and Knockaert who was apparently MOTM also gave away the ball in ludicrous positions in the first half that led to Spurs having good efforts on goal, so to pick Bong up just because his one mistake was punished seems harsh when he was excellent for the rest of the game.

I have changed this
Yup.. This for me.. Except Duffy 7, I think Dunk and him had equally good games..
I was watching in German, the commentary team gave Stephens man of the match. I thought Groß was a class above in the first half in particular.

Ryan 10. We would have lost if he hadn't made that save at the end of the first half. Commanding. MoM
Bruno 9. He makes AK and Duffy better players - keeps the shirt
Duffy 8. More confident performance due to Bruno
Dunk 7. Solid but passing a bit wayward
Bong 7. Involved in the shambles for their goal, but solid overall
Knockaert 8. At last a performance to remember!!! worked hard and made better by Bruno - lovely interchanges between those two. If AK plays Bruno has to as well
Stephens - 8. Some of the usual misplaced passes but a hard biting performance. Unsetltled Spurs
Kayal 10. Incredible performance - aggressive, uncompromising, full of energy. loved the bit towards end of 2 half when he and AK ran from the centre at full pace to hunt down a Spurs player down the east side. Keeps the shirt
Jose 7. Flashes of what he can do, but faded in and out. But an important contribution
Gross 9. Cool, calculated and tireless
Murray 7. Did well keeping the Spurs defence occupied - sacrificed himself for the team
Ulloa 7. Much better

Last night was the aggressive, determined and excellent performance we've needed. Is it any coincidence that this happened when we had the spine of the promotion team? More 'together'?

Ryan - 8 - Played well. Superb save.
Bruno - 7 - Pretty solid. Pretty isolated against Son in the first half but a always a cool head and always recovered where necessary
Bong - 6 - Good game overall but very indecisive over the goal
Dunk - 7 - As Bong re. the goal, but still a good performance
Duffy - 7 - Marshalled Kane very well
Kayal - 8 - Excellent. Retained possession well and fought REALLY hard to win it back whenever we gave it up
Stephens - 7.5 - Battling performance as always.
Gross - 7 - Ruthless penalty, a bit quieter than usual but to be expected up against a team playing 2 defensive mids
Knockaert - 8.5 - Absolutely superb. So diligent in his defensive work and a real outlet in the first half.
Izquierdo - 6.5 - Did well whenever he got the ball and tracked and defended well. We still don't seem to want to release him much down the left
Murray - 6 - Held the ball up well, lovely piece of work to set up Izquierdo for the pen
Subs:
Ulloa - 7 - His best appearance for us yet. Looked good
March - 6 - Didn't have much to do when he came on but as with all our wingers, did his defensive duties well
Bruno - 7 - Pretty solid. Pretty isolated against Son in the first half but a always a cool head and always recovered where necessary

Ryan 8. Some good saves, but three kicks straight into touch.
Bruno 7. I like Schelotto, but it was good to see Bruno back and he had a good game apart from being caught upfield on one occasion.
Duffy 7. Much better than his last home performance.
Dunk 8. Apart from an attempt to do a "duffy" he had a good game.
Bong 6. Takes a share of the blame for their goal, otherwise an OK performance.
Stephens 7. A couple of very poor passes, otherwise played well.
Kayal 8. A good game, but I didn't see the MOM performance that others witnessed.
Knockaert 7. Frustrating at times as always, but otherwise gave 100%.
Izquierdo 6. Didn't really get into the game. Some flashes of brilliance, but needed to be more involved.
Gross 8. Well taken penalty and another very good performance. MOM
Murray 7. Won almost everything in the air, but not at his very best.
Subs:
Ulloa 8. Wow! Great hold up play, great ball control and passing, good in the air. His best football since he rejoined us. Maybe should start against Burnley?
March 7. OK

Kayal had a good game last night I had him as MOM, but one swallow doesn't make a summer.
He had three attempts to make a tackle against Leicester and failed which resulted in their opener.

no it doesn't, but he is the best ball winning midfielder we have by some way imo and we really lack a midfield that pressures the oppo when the have the ball in that area of the field. imho.

I honestly didn't think Murray was that bad, lovely touch to Iz which led to the pen.

Kayal was a monster last night best performance from him in years. If he does the same again against Burnley then Propper has a job getting his place back.

Yep, Well and truly celebrating as shown in the highlights on Seagulls TV.
I thought he was isolated a lot in the first half and worked hard off the ball to try and put some pressure on Spurs, then I though he was tiring and substituting him was the right decision. At the time I'd have preferred Locadia to come on to hit them on the break with pace, but Ulloa did well.

This. Spurs' back line left acres of space for a fast CF to run into, skillfully control the hoof-ball played into his path and go one-on-one with the keeper. If only Chris had one or two of those available on the bench... nope... Let's swap our big and slow target man for our other big and slow target man.
