Tottenham fans react to Davinson Sanchez's shocker against Arsenal

Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal played out a pulsating 2-2 draw in the first North London Derby of the season.

The Gunners came from 2-0 down to salvage a point, after Christian Eriksen and Harry Kane had scored for the visitors.

Alexandre Lacazette hit back before half time, before Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang equalised.

The game could have gone either way with both teams having created big chances.

Arsenal arguably finished the game the stronger side and were pushing harder in the closing stages after Aubameyang’s goal.

The frantic nature of the game saw a number of players put in poor performances – arguably non more so than Spurs’ Davinson Sanchez.

The Colombia international was made to play right-back by Mauricio Pochettino, with Serge Aurier left on the bench.

Sanchez struggled all afternoon to deal with the pace of Aubameyang and Nicolas Pepe, and it may be some time before he is deployed in the position again by his manager.

TBR’s view

Many Spurs fans couldn’t believe how poor Sanchez was, and several people took aim at Pochettino for the decision.

That feels like a loss , awful display .. Poch got this wrong with Sanchez at RB
Killed us

Substitutions were baffling, why bring Son off when they looked vulnerable on the counter? Why was Sanchez kept at RB even though his legs were gone? Lucas should’ve come on too.

#thfc Great game. Never good to blow a 2-goal lead but given Arsenal’s dominance at 2-2 that’s no bad result. That’s 2 tough away games out of the way, with 2 draws. Main takeaway today is Sanchez isn’t a right-back! Next question is whether Spurs can break down Palace at home.

Hopefully that will be the end of Sanchez at right-back. KWP and Foyth should be fit after the international break. Felt sorry for him in the end, but it was a tough watch #THFC #COYS

Where was VAR. When Cabellos brought down Alli? Foul all day. Lo Celso looked good. Poch needs to allow the favouritism now. Sanchez needs to be dropped. And Aurier has to start until Foyth is fit again. His position is RB. Really upset with us giving away 2 goals. Not good.

Few things:
Feels like we lost that.
Showed Arsenal way too much respect with Le Celso change. Pace was needed with some of the opportunities we created.
Sanchez isn’t a RB, not going to blame him for anything today. However, he has started season poorly.#COYS #THFC

Well that was one of the worst performances ever, but we got a point. Never wanna see Sanchez at RB ever again. #COYS

It’s disappointing because of how it played out but would of took a draw before the game… if Sanchez starts in any position but the bench after the international break then it’s to soon, he is dreadful
