“Imagine having this right-back at our disposal” – A lot of Tottenham Hotspur fans want Serge Aurier to start against Crystal Palace – after he captained the Ivory Coast to a 2-1 win over Tunisia.
The 26-year-old was making his first appearance of the season after finding himself sidelined by Mauricio Pochettino – with the Argentine preferring to play Kyle Walker-Peters.
Even an injury to Walker-Peters did not give Aurier a start though with Pochettino choosing Davinson Sanchez over him for the North London derby.
The move was a disaster as Sanchez was torn apart and it seems many Spurs fans want to see Aurier play in the next Premier League game.
See the best of the reaction below.

A lot of Tottenham supporters want Pochettino to use Aurier rather than an out of position Sanchez or Walker-Peters.

Other Spurs supporters forgot he even played for Tottenham. This is clearly a dig at Pochettino which I found to be quite amusing.
And he didnt get injured? No way

Glad he didn’t give him self an injury this time

Finally, a few Tottenham fans can’t believe he did not get injured. Spurs have had a rough time with injuries this season, so this is about that.
