Ibrahima Konate - Key defensively in first start Konate made three tackles (two won), registered nine clearances and added two interceptions during Sunday's 2-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur. Impact Konate played the full 90 in his first EPL start this season and was a key factor in holding opposing striker Harry Kane off the score sheet until the 70th minute of this contest. His nine clearances were both a team and a match-high during a rather evenly contested matchup. If he receives additional run within the XI, it will likely be at the expense of Joe Gomez, who was on the bench for this one.
