Spurs start to miss Trippier

"I have a bad feeling we shouldn't have sold Trippier. Especially when we have not signed anybody to replace him", wrote Alex, a 'Spurs' fan, on Twitter.

This is the general feeling of many fans about Trippier moving to Atlético. Like Alex, many 'spurs' fans have changed their mind about the sale of the defender.

What seemed like a good idea at the time (as Tottenham gained 23 million), could actually end up being ruinous. He had been part of the starting XI and an England star, but also a player with a slight tendency to injure himself.

Pochettino approved the sale, believing he had plenty of people so that he would not miss Trippier. And, for now, no one has managed to fill the gap and make fans forget about Trippier. Especially when in his first official match with Atletico he already got an assist.
