Tottenham squandered another golden opportunity to move into the top four after drawing 2-2 with Newcastle.
Jose Mourinho’s side looked on course for the three points that would have seen them move above Chelsea and into fourth when Harry Kane’s quick-fire brace cancelled out Joelington’s first-half strike.
However, on-loan Arsenal midfielder Joe Willock crashed home a equaliser to ensure Spurs dropped more points late on from a winning position in a Premier League match.
But whilst Tottenham were guilty of not killing off the game, their defensive display was even worse.
And perhaps no one epitomised Spurs’ wretched performance at the back than Davinson Sanchez.
The Colombian centre-back’s shocking afternoon started early on when his poor header gifted a chance for Joelinton, although he could only fire straight at Hugo Lloris. But just before the half-hour mark the Brazilian striker took full advantage of a hapless clearance from Sanchez, whose poor distribution constantly put Tottenham on the backfoot.
His performance led to an angry response from Spurs supporters on Twitter. And we’ve been looking at how they’ve been reacting here:
Very content with never seeing Davinson Sanchez play for Spurs again

Davinson Sanchez should be playing in the championship end of. #NEWTOT

José, please take Davinson Sanchez with you on your way out

I’d honestly rather Ledley King right now than Davinson Sanchez ?

Put this season in the bin, with Davinson Sanchez

Love to know why Toby missed the game today. Also would like to know why Jose keeps on picking Sanchez. Just looks shocking #THFC

No blame on Jose at all apart from selecting Sanchez who is abysmal. #thfc

Individual mistakes.
Two chances to clear by Tanganga and Sanchez. Two individual mistakes. #THFC

Ffs sack our defence coach what on earth does he go through in training with these guys also how has Sanchez gone backwards so far we will be lucky to get a 5 pound note for him also levy needs a mention for not buying in a experienced centre back to train these guys beside him.
Sanchez is a massive liability and an absolute disgrace of a defender. Jose needs to take himself and Sanchez and just leave asap.a total and utter disgrace today.
Every Spurs supporter knew it would end up 2-2 how much longer must we endure this mindset of our team unable to kill a game off.
Why why Jose always keeps Sanchez playing the worst defender in league
SOLD him in Summer as his career with Spurs is finished by now I have enough and enough with him he gave away 85 Percentage and does not know how to use header he doesn’t know how to pass correct
Toby should play in place if Sanchez
Spurs must get rid of Sanchez and Lamela in summer and get two new central defenders
Dybal of Juventus should replace Lamela
Skiner of Inter Milan in place of useless Sanchez
Have no confidence in Mourinho
Spurs have no chance of winning the Cup on 25 April
Sanchez wasnt useless today, he is useless everyday. Just a poor player. Why is he still in team? Sell Kane FFS? We should be keeping him & Son , Rodon will be ok , but almost everyone else are not good enough to play for Spurs. Kane isnt too good for Spurs , he is the required standard. The board needs to sell up. Trouble is , this useless defending has gone on with different players & managers over years. Sanchez should NEVER play again , or Dier. Major overhaul needed
Defenitly Sanchez must go as I have said before that he should be sold before season starts
He is no longer attacking midfielder.
With Davinson Sanchez, this season is over. Sanchez is a huge liability and a total disaster as a defender. Jose needs to take himself and Sanchez and depart as soon as possible. He is a whole and utter embarrassment today.
