Fans Tottenham zijn bankzittersrol Vertonghen kotsbeu en laten ongenoegen blijken: "Wat er ook gebeurde achter de schermen ..."

Coach Pochettino maakt al enkele weken geen gebruik van Jan Vertonghen in zijn basiself bij Tottenham Hotspur.

De verrassende nederlaag tegen Newcastle United in eigen huis was wat dat betreft dan ook koren op de molen van de fans die het niet eens zijn met de keuzes van de coach.

Op twitter lieten meerderen dan ook hun ongenoegen blijken over het bankzittersstatuut van onze Rode Duivel. Een bloemlezing: 

If Vertonghen starts, we don’t concede that goal. If Eriksen starts, we’d have created much more. I’m sorry but regardless of how spineless the players were, Pochettino is making some ridiculous decisions but some Spurs fans are so far up his backside to notice. I’m fuming man.

Why does Pochettino think he’s prime Mourinho? Play Eriksen and Vertonghen from the start you mug

We need to talk about Vertonghen.

He's one of the leagues best CBs and he's sitting on the bench week in week out.

I don't care if he's feeding sugar cola bottles up your nans arse...he starts no matter what. #COYS

Too late again. Poch’s decision to leave out Eriksen & Vertonghen for political reasons completely blown up in his face. Wonder when we’ll be able to have a season where we don’t have to worry about that. Still, didn’t look like scoring for 95 mins there. Not encouraging pre-NLD.

Sorry but Vertonghen should be starting every game he is available for,, personally I believe what Trippier says and something is up behind the scenes, Poch hasn't been happy since coming back after summer,
