Tottenham Hotspur fans had a day to forget at Stamford Bridge, falling to a sorry 2-0 defeat. Goals from Hakim Ziyech and Thiago Silva ensured Antonio Conte’s men returned across the capital empty handed.

Before the game, Spurs fans were unhappy at the decision to start Japhet Tanganga, with them making their feelings known on the matter on social media.

Should Spurs sell Tanganga this month?

Yes

Yes

No

No

They’ll have felt justified, with the defender being replaced before the hour mark. When Spurs announced the substitution on Twitter, the fans flocked to the comments to continue their scathing analysis on Tanganga.

What the Spurs fans said

“Tanganga shouldn’t play another minute for Tottenham.” @JoeGftbl

“Bless him Tanganga, but he’s clearly not good enough.” @dannk23

“Tanganga should never play again. Horrific.” @_levidale

“Too late. Tanganga should never be seen again.” @keithwill73

“Hopefully that’s the last time I have to watch Tanganga.” @morganchaney_

“Sell Tanganga immediately.” @SHAMITTHFC

He was taken off with Spurs already trailing Chelsea by two goals to nil, with the chance to take fourth spot by the end of play slipping away.

It doesn’t get better when you look at SofaScore’s player ratings. Tanganga was the only player to drop into the fives, registering a 5.8 rating in the game.

Do you know Spurs' former academy players? Which former Burnley player used to play for Spurs' academy?

The result still leaves Spurs within a win of the top four, having played the least amount of games too. So Conte’s side have a real advantage over their Champions League hunting rivals, just today was a big chance missed to lay down a marker.
