Player Watch: Serge Aurier

[kent brockman]

He has also cut down on the sliding tackles, which has rendered fewer freekicks.

 

[spids]

He has been very good this season, along with Ndombele probably our most improved player this season.

 

[yido_number1]

Probably the type of player that benefits from Mourinho's strong instructions. To add to that he has two players to cover him now in Hojbjerg and Sissoko which can only be a good thing.

agree

 

[southlondonyiddo]

Just a shout out to Serge and how well he’s done on the last few games and in light of how poor Doherty was last night, in comparison

I think he’s been pretty harshly treated from day 1 and like Sissoko it shows what a fantastic mentality he has to bounce back in the way that he has

Long may Serge Aurier go from strength to strength

 

[SpursD22]

A lot of Spurs fans (me included) needs to apologise to him, what a season he’s having

Last season a day after his brother died he decided that he still wanted to play and we won. What a warrior

 

[Shadydan]

Yeah he's fully focused now and he is absolute class.

He has been playing very well.

 

[Spurrific]

He has been playing very well.

He was never as bad as some of our fans made out in the first place.

 

[aliyid]

He’s changing my opinion of him and looking far more solid than he’s ever been for us.

The fact the we’re not relying on him driving forward has allowed him to focus on defending and he’s putting in some solid performances now

 

[GutBucket]

Up there with James, Lamptey, Walker etc.

Well done to Aurier for proving his quality. As it stands he is first choice RB.

The competition has certainly brought the best out of him...Will say, I had my doubts at certain points.

 

[SargeantMeatCurtains]

If it cost us £13m to turn Aurier into the right back he’s become, it’s all worth it. He’s been fucking excellent this season.

 

[Gassin's finest]

He needed proper competition to push him on. If the biggest thing that comes from signing Doherty is Aurier becoming excellent, then I'll take that.

 

[srups34]

Ill gladly hold my hands up and apologise to big Serge. A completely different player from last season. Long may his good form continue. ?

 

[Montalbano]

Think it's fair to say Serge has cemented his spot as our first choice RB. He's been phenomenal.

Time to give him a new contract.

 

[Sevens]

I've been a massive critic of him but I am delighted to say I'm eating humble pie because under Mourinho's system he is looking fantastic!

 

[Tucker]

Another very solid performance from a guy I used to dread seeing tackling an opposition player in the box. He was superb today.

 

[Wizzy77]

His crucial intervention at the 44min, not only deny Auba a chance at goal, he won it, passed it to create our second goal.

He have been through a lot past year, so so so glad for him now that he has taken his game to another positive level.

 

[IfiHadTheWings]

Shout out to Serge, man mountain this season...hes such a fierce competitor and solid one on one.

Good lad Serge.
