Tottenham Hotspur fans on Twitter have been sharing their criticism for Lilywhites midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and his performance during their recent 2-1 defeat against Arsenal in the Premier League.

Goals from Martin Odegaard and Alexandre Lacazette secured the win for Mikel Arteta’s side after Spurs winger Erik Lamela opened the scoring to put the visitors ahead.

Test your knowledge of these Tottenham players' market values! How much do you think Hugo Lloris is worth?

During the game, Hojbjerg’s display caught the attention of a lot of Spurs fans, but for all the wrong reasons, as a group of them flocked to Twitter to share their thoughts and opinions on the midfielder’s latest outing for the club.

So, what did these Spurs fans have to say about Hojbjerg’s performance against Arsenal?

“Hojbjerg has been as bad as Doherty btw”

@ThePerchy

“Hojbjerg is having an absolute stinker today.”

@HarryKane_Jr

“Hojbjerg getting ripped apart again”

@thfc__j

“Hojbjerg has been woeful today”

@dwarfhubby29

“Why is Hojbjerg immune from criticism? Can think of plenty of games especially recently he’s been dreadful and today is one of them”

@keatonthfc

“Højbjerg dropping a stinker.”

Spurs signed Hojbjerg back in the previous summer transfer window from fellow Premier League side Southampton for a fee of £14.94 million.

Looking at these tweets from this group of Spurs fans, it’s clear to see that they were not happy with Hojbjerg and what he had to show on the pitch against their north London rivals.

Did Hojbjerg have his worst game for Spurs against Arsenal?

Yes

Yes

No

No

Moving forward, given how the £27m-rated man has played every single minute of Premier League action for Spurs so far this season, it would seem unlikely to us that he will find himself out of the team based on this performance against Arsenal.
