Tottenham are currently locked in action with Southampton as they look to play catch up to the sides above them in their chase for the top 4.
And while it looked as though they were on top early, they missed several big chances before finally taking the lead through an own goal that their performance probably deserved.
But it didn’t last long.
The Saints capitalised on some poor defending from Tottenham, with on-loan Chelsea man Armando Broja firing in an equaliser, and in truth they could have been a goal or two up come the break.
Southampton take advantage of some unconvincing #THFC defending as Armando Broja levels the scoring.
An entertaining first half hour.

Reguilon and Davies in the firing line
And, come half time, it was defensive duo Sergio Reguilon and Ben Davies who were firmly in Tottenham fans’ sights. Reguilon missed a glorious chance in the opening 45 minutes, and looked less than impressive in the defensive side of his game.
Davies, meanwhile, was at fault for the equaliser, and failed to inspire any confidence alongside Cristian Romero.
It was something that Tottenham fans were not keen to overlook, as can be seen below.
The penalty box triggers the brake lights on Reguilon’s knees clearly #TOTSOU

Reguilon ZERO offensive awareness. Slows down his run for no reason and then can’t get to Kane’s cross.
Frustrating.

im sorry but reguilon is genuinely the most overrated fullback in the prem. he’s plays like a headless chicken

Ben Davies can’t continue in this lineup the rest of the season. He’s trash and has been for a while.

You know we are not a serious club when Ben Davies still plays games for us

Ben Davies makes me want to cry.

Hojbjerg, Winks and Davies wouldn’t get in my old 5-a-side team.
