Chelsea player ratings vs Tottenham: Enzo Fernandez decisive as Andrey Santos grabs chance | OneFootball

Bluescome through nervous derby with all three points

Richarlison scored late for the visitors but it proved a mere consolation for Spurs as Calum McFarlane earned his first win at Stamford Bridge.

Robert Sanchez 5

Had very little to do on the night. Conceded to Richarlison from close range.

Josh Acheampong 6

Fared well at right-back, where he started ahead of the benched Reece James and the injured Malo Gusto. A rare Premier League start for the Englishman.

Wesley Fofana 6

Started at centre-back as Levi Colwill was given a rest. Seemed tired at moments but defended well.

Jorrel Hato 7

Almost scored an own goal with a strange interception in the first half. Otherwise solid, including a match-winning late block to deny James Maddison a certain goal.

Marc Cucurella 6

Was a real attacking outlet in the first half but his poor header allowed Spurs back into the game with Richarlison’s goal.

Moises Caicedo 7

Full of bite in midfield with tackles and interceptions and some useful passes, too.

Andrey Santos 8

Has struggled for minutes lately but made the most of this start, covering plenty of ground in midfield before scoring the second with a confidence finish.

Pedro Neto 6

Needed to be more positive in transition. Was a frustrating watch again.

Cole Palmer 7

Brighter than he has been in many recent performances, picking up pockets and forcing one good save. His end product is still lacking, though.

Enzo Fernandez 9

The on-field captain led from the front, scoring Chelsea’s first, assisting their second, and never giving up.

Liam Delap 5

It didn’t fall for the striker yet again. Couldn’t make it stick and blazed over with his only chance.

Subs:

Trevoh Chalobah (Acheampong, 74’) 6

Came on to add solidity at the back and was composed.

Dario Essugo (Palmer, 89’) N/A

Shim Mheuka (Delap, 89’) N/A
