Serge Aurier has been inconsistent for Tottenham this season and some supporters are finally losing patience with the 26-year-old. Aurier was available for sale over the summer and has blown hot & cold under Mauricio Pochettino after failing to find himself a new club.
The Ivorian international has made seven appearances in all competitions for Tottenham, making two assists and picking up one red card. Aurier has been on the winning side just three times and has been part of a defence that has conceded 13 goals.
Big changes needed imo. Mainly in defence

Rose, Aurier and Eriksen shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near this team again absolutely disgraceful yesterday, not good enough to give that away. But Gazzaniga was first class #THFC #COYS

Can’t really disagree, id happily never see Aurier in a #THFC shirt again.
Davies in better form that Rose & should be starting
& don’t even get me started on Eriksen

Can’t help but feel Spurs’ defeat to Liverpool was written as soon as the Spurs line-up was announced.
To select Rose and Aurier who consistently make individual errors and play Eriksen who was non-existent and doesn’t want to commit to the club is baffling.#THFC #COYS #LIVTOT

Aurier has been linked with the likes of AC Milan, AS Monaco, Inter Milan and Paris Saint-Germain, but it remains to be seen if he’s sold in January. Pochettino does have Kyle Walker-Peters and Juan Foyth ready to deputise at right-back, however.
Fans want to see Aurier sold as they don’t believe he’s good enough for a top-four club. In the Premier League, the 26-year-old averaged a foul every 55 minutes, has been dribbled past five times in five games and has been sent off once.
Despite this, Aurier does put in the occasional good performance from right-back. The problem is that he has a lot of bad ones too and can’t be trusted over an entire season.
