James Maddison has been a standout performer for Spurs, quickly establishing himself as a crucial part of the team since his summer arrival from Leicester City.

With a rating of 7.64, Maddison has played a key role in both scoring and setting up goals, really showing off his playmaking skills and vision on the pitch.

Son Heung-Min, a well-known figure at Tottenham, keeps shining as one of the Premier League's top attackers. With a rating of 7.88, his speed, skill, and finishing prowess have consistently posed a threat to opposing defences.

His partnership with Maddison has been deadly, with the pair working well together to create goal-scoring chances, further solidifying their importance to the club.

Cristian Romero, despite facing criticism for some defensive lapses, has also been recognised as one of the top defenders in the league, earning a rating of 7.4.

His strong performances at the back have been vital for Spurs, and while he has occasionally been blamed for goals conceded, his overall contribution to the defence cannot be overlooked.

Although Tottenham’s current league position might not showcase the quality of their performances, the recognition of Maddison, Son, and Romero highlights the individual talents in the squad. As the team aims to gain momentum in the upcoming weeks, these three players will surely be key to Spurs’ pursuit of a successful season.

With the international break upon us, manager Ange Postecoglou will have time to regroup and refocus his side ahead of a crucial London derby against West Ham United.
