Graham Roberts left fuming at Radu Dragusin’s ‘pathetic’ moment in Tottenham’s defeat to Arsenal
Tottenham Hotspur supporters were once again left fuming at their team’s embarrassing defensive set-up at the Emirates with Radu Dragusin’s display being slammed.
Ange Postecoglou’s team suffered an 11th defeat of the season which means🎶 the club have now lost as many matches at this stage of a Premier League campaign as their joint-highest.
The Gunners came from behind in the first half as Gabriel Magalhaes and Leandro Trossard𓆏’s goals ca💧ncelled out Son Heung-min’s opener.
After the game, the performance of Dragusin was slammed by a Tottenham Hotspur legend who labelled his involvement in Arse𓄧nal’s first goal as ‘pathetic’.
Graham Roberts fumes at Radu Dragusin vs Arsenal
Graham Roberts slammed Radu Dragusin’s defending for Arsenal’s equaliser as the Romanian failed to deal with Gabriel’s✨ back post header which was turned in.
The former Tottenham💧 captain insisted that whilst Arsenal should not have been awarded a corner, the team needed to defend the set piece so much better.
Roberts wrote on X: “You still need to defend the corner we are not good at that. Dragusin didn’t even look at the ball – how can you clear the b🐬all if you’re 💧not looking at it… Pathetic!”
The 22-year-old was more focused on sticking with ♊the Brazilian rather than looking to clear the ball and the Arsenal defender won the header with ease.
Tottenham’s inability to def♎end corners has been 🌟slammed over the course of the season and whilst the goalkeeper has often taken theไ br൩unt of the criticism, the defenders also need to look at themselves.
Why Tottenham must look to move on from Radu Dragusin
Dragusin’s ability on the ball should be a major concern for Postecoglou who 🌌has a clear idea that his team must play out from the back.
There were several heart-stopping moments at the🏅 Emirates when one of the players in Spurs’ backline was caught in possession as they refused to clear their lines.
Whilst Antonin Kinsky and Archie Gray were two of those players culpable for taking too long, they are both technically 🦂good players which got them out of jail, but in the case of Dragusin, he certa🐼inly isn’t.
Dragusin losಞt possession on seven occasions and had a pass accuracy of 77 per cent at the Emirates. Tottenham must sign a new central defender this month.
