Tottenham romped to a stunning 4-0 victory at Manchester City in the Premier League on Saturday evening, bouncing back from their shock home defeat to Ipswich Town last time out. Ange Postecoglou's side condemned City to a fifth consecutive defeat in all competitions to emphatically get back on track.

James Maddison scored a first-half brace as part of a sensational performance before Pedro Porro added a third on the other side of the break. Brennan Johnson made it four in stoppage time.

Guglielmo Vicario: 9

One of the most deserved clean sheets you'll see all season. Looked like a man on a mission to deny Erling Haaland, and he did.

Pedro Porro: 8

It felt like his third goal put the game out of sight, but he also heavily contributed to an inspired defensive performance by Spurs.

Radu Dragusin: 7

Rock solid throughout the match and produced a crucial block in stoppage time to frustrate Haaland further.

Ben Davies: 7

Will deservedly receive plenty of respect for filling in at centre-back in Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven's absence. Impressive showing.

Destiny Udogie: 8

So tenacious in the tackle, making more than any other player on the pitch. Also won five ground duels.

Pape Sarr: 7

Came out on top in seven duels to go with three tackles in an energetic midfield performance.

Yves Bissouma: 5

A rare underperformer for Spurs. Felt like it was going to be a long night for him and Spurs after he was booked in the 17th second. It wasn't.

James Maddison: 10

Are you watching, Thomas Tuchel? A near-perfect showing from Maddison, scoring twice to send Spurs on their way to a momentous victory. Nine duels won, five fouls drawn, 100 per cent take-on and tackle success rate. Tonight is his night. Superb.

Dejan Kulusevski: 9

He could easily be Spurs' second 10/10 performer. Ran City's left side ragged, winning all five of his ground duels, completing four take-ons, creating three chances and adding an assist. Sweden are in the money with their attack.

Heung-min Son: 6

Created two chances before withdrawing after the hour mark.

Dominic Solanke: 6

Only took 25 touches across the 90 minutes. Didn't need to contribute to the goalscoring but provided the assist for Porro's strike.

Substitutes

Brennan Johnson: 8

Huge impact off the bench. Hit the woodwork before adding a fourth by pouncing onto Timo Werner's cross at the back post. Five Premier League goals this season.

Timo Werner: 7

Wasn't on the pitch long but added an assist to his tally.

Djed Spence: N/A
