A lot of Tottenham Hotspur fans on Twitter have been discussing Davinson Sanchez’s performance in the Lilywhites’ 3-1 EFL Cup win over Stoke City on Wednesday evening.
The Colombia international played the entirety of this game alongside Eric Dier at the heart of Spurs’ defence and in his post-match player ratings for this contest, Football.London’s Rob Guest handed the 24-year-old a 6/10 rating for his performance versus Stoke.
The journalist explained that he felt Sanchez had little to do in the first half, while the £36m-rated centre-back’s poor positioning played a part in allowing Stoke to score their only goal of the game in the 53rd minute.
So, what did these Tottenham Hotspur fans have to say about Sanchez’s performance versus Stoke City?
Many of the Spurs fans who have been discussing the Colombian on Twitter following their side’s clash with Stoke were quite critical in their assessment of Sanchez’s performance in this game.
“Davinson Sanchez wouldn’t get into arsenal’s back line. Not sure why he keeps starting for us”
“How bad is Davinson Sanchez”
“What has happened to Davinson. He’s terrible”
“I strongly believe that I’m a better centre back than Davinson Sanchez”
“Davinson Sanchez defends worse than a Sunday league pub player half cut”
“Davinson Sanchez got the IQ of a Championship player at best”
Did Sanchez play badly versus Stoke?
YES
NO
“I’ve tried so hard to forgive. But Davinson Sanchez really does make Anthony Gardner look like Franco Baresi. #STKTOT”
“Obviously Davinson Sanchez is a trainwreck of a footballer, but why is he getting blamed for their goal more than Lloris?”
“Sanchez and Doherty are a disgrace, get them out the club ASAP”
So, judging by these Spurs fans’ tweets, it’s clear that Sanchez hasn’t made himself very popular amongst many fans of his club via his midweek display.
