Tottenham fans have a lot to say about Radu Dragusin after his Liverpool display and it’s not good
Against Liverpool on Sunday evening, Ange Postecoglou was once again forced to turn to a centre-back pairing of Radu Dragusin and Archie Gray.
Despite Tottenham’s late attempt at comeback against Liverpool, the reality of the defeat was that Postecoglou’s defence was to🔯rn﷽ apart once again.
Even without their two starting centre-backs, Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven, Spurs refused to change their approach at the back, and Dragusin in particular looked out of depth.
Gray, an 18-year-old defensive midfielder playing out of posiജtion, should be forgiven – he’ll hopefully be learning a lot during his minutes rig💧ht now.
However, judging by the reaction of Tottenham fans on X, there’s not too mucꦿh symp🌃athy for Dragusin.
Tottenham fans slam ‘woeful’ Radu Dragusin after Liverpool defeat
Dragusin arrived at Tottenham for a considerable fee, an international stolen from the grips of Bayer💟n Munich.
However, when taking to X during and after the 6-3 defeat to Liverpool, Spurs fans were♛ not impressed 💯in the slightest.

One fan simply wrote: “Dragusin is actually woeful”, shortly before the f𒅌ull-time whistle blew in N17.
Another supporter actually thought Gray looked much more accomplisꦇhed than his Romanian counterpart, a damning verdict for 💫Dragusin who is actually a centre-back.
They said: “Dragusin might onꦕly be 22 but he’s a seasoned international and played some big games in this summers euros yet an 18 year old kid from Leeds ꦇwho’s a midfielder btw looks more calm and composed as a cb than him.”
Another fan took the chance to recall some difficult days with Joe Hart and Eric Dier at the back when watching Tottenham c🎶olla💎pse against Liverpool.
They wrote: “Forster and Dragusin are jꦰust Joe Hart and Eric Dier reincarnated…get Bissouma outta here too.”
Postecoglou thinks Dragusin is improving
Perhaps Dragusin deserves 𒁏some sympathy – he is being asked to play an incredibly difficult role by Postecoglou, one that isn’t helꦰped by those in front of him either.
But Tottenham were warned about Dragusin a short while ago, a player who has consi🅠stently underwhelmed in nort🌄h London.
Tha𒅌t being said, Postecoglou did make some interesting comments about Dragusin’s development back in November before he was set for a spell in the side.
The Spurs boss claimed that Dragusin was improving every time he wore Tottenham colours, something that wasn’t evident agai﷽nst Liverpool at least.
Pos𓆏tecoglou said: “Every time he is out there I think I can see improvements. He is really embracing the way we play.
“It is very different to where he came from, playing so aggressively with our line and defending one-on-one but he’s embracing ♚that and enjoying that.”
