“Serge Aurier has improved a lot under Jose Mourinho”.
I don’t want to hear it.
This guy is a walking mistake. Sometimes he’ll walk two games between them, and sometimes seven. But the mistake always comes.
With a place in the FA Cup fifth round in our grasp, Aurier takes one touch too many in his own half and slips. Southampton pinch it off him and Sofiane Boufal goes on to equalise to make it 1-1 and force a replay.

Watch the video below to see how the Ivorian slipped up this time.

“He did well to win the initial tackle.” “He slipped – anyone can slip”.
Again, I don’t want to hear it. Three minutes to go with a one-goal lead, you don’t take chances dribbing across goal in your own half.
How many more chances is that lad going to get?!
There will always be a way to spin something as a negative about a player you don’t like whilst doing the opposite of a player you do: in this case the spin would get a helicopter off the ground. Did you even watch the video?
1. Southampton had the ball – Aurier dispossessed them! He was unfortunate to slip on the grass as he went to lay it off to the Lo Celso – but that happens to the very best. Southampton reclaimed the ball the net outcome was the same as before Aurier made his interception, but it would have been the same scenario……… because……..
2. Boufal, throughout the whole video clip, does not have a Tottenham player within 15yards of him until he runs in to score. Who was supposed to be marking him???
3. Aurier has been pretty much the top of the assist charts for our goals over the last half dozen of so games and his stats would look all the more impressive if our finishing was not so piss poor.
Its a pretty jaundiced snipe at Aurier who’s game has lifted considerably of late and whose work and commitment has never faltered. Yes he can be clumsy, but he’s far from the only one who’s made errors that have cost points by conceding goals or failing to score sitters!
Everyone wants to slight Aurier, but somehow overlooked Japhet’s nightmare against Watford where he was roasted again and again at Left Back….. no somehow he came away unscathed.
Aurier won’t ever stop being a liability defensively, he’s 27 now does anyone honestly expect it to change?
I’ve checked, it’s open to everyone but Levy, he opted out for a whole year you know. It’s because he’s clever and had a masterplan up his sleeve… 😂
I totally agree , unfortunately Mourinho has upset other players like Walker-Peters and Parrott. Maybe he should be more accountable!,
Two easy goals missed, one by Son and another by Lucas.
In all fairness Foyth is young, and not had the minutes that Aurier has had.
Just what a knackered team needs more games.
Open for sales of course.
Or Foyth.
Sorry, did I just hear someone say the transfer window is still open? No cant be surely….can someone check?
How many goals and points has this guy cost us. No matter how well he may play he is still an accident waiting to happen in every match, Not only that but Tangana is a RB and is being played out of position to accommodate Aurier and that is not doing the lad any favours. He cannot make runs down the left as he can on the right and cross. He is easier to get past on his left side as he tackles from his right side. Apart from a few nice passing interchanges on the whole the performance was as ever lack lustre and poor. Really looking forward to the Man City match…………..
If it ain’t Sanchez, then it’s Aurier.
He did well with the interception, then turned into
trouble, overplaying. No awareness of players around him.
Having his best Ever game for Spurs and then ………………………
