Spurs did not play well at Goodison Park, and I would go as far as saying that was the worst they have played for most of the season. Rodrigo Bentancur, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and James Maddison were all very quiet, and Brennan Johnson and Timo Werner were both poor.
Some of that was down to Everton, who despite a lack of quality were good value in terms of their work-rate and giving it a go, but Tottenham's midfield looked a bit tired to me.

The big disappointment was the way Everton scored their second goal.
