“The worst player on our roster”, “A f******g liability” Tottenham fans want Aurier to be replaced by academy product

Tottenham Hotspur amongst three clubs interested in Kyle Walker-Peters.

Tottenham Hotspur fans have taken to social media to call upon manager Mauricio Pochettino to start Kyle Walker-Peters ahead of Serge Aurier against Rochdale in the FA Cup on Wednesday.

Spurs axed their own leg when they conceded a last-minute equaliser at Rochdale that set up a replay at Wembley. They remain the hot favourites to progress into the quarterfinals of the FA Cup but first, they must negotiate the League One side on Wednesday.

Pochettino bids to win his first trophy in England and has taken the FA Cup very seriously this season. Our gaffer has constantly picked out a strong lineup and is set to include the likes of Harry Kane, Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli against Rochdale.

But one senior figure Spurs fans don’t want to see tonight is Serge Aurier.

Aurier had a shocker of a game in Sunday’s 1-0 win at Crystal Palace. After being penalised for three foul throws, the Ivorian missed a sitter at Selhurst Park.

That has seen Spurs fans crying their hearts out to see Poch drop Aurier for Walker-Peters, who was subbed at half-time in the fourth-round draw at Newport County last month.

The 20-year-old, a Spurs academy prospect, hasn’t kicked a ball in the Premier League since September. Walker-Peters started Spurs’ opening-day win at Newcastle back in August but the return of Danny Rose and the addition of Serge Aurier has seen him find limited opportunities at our club.

But after Aurier’s horror show last weekend, there might be a chance for Walker-Peters to impress on Wednesday.

Here’s what the fans want to see.
