Ben Davies should be fired by Tottenham Hotspur, according to Jamie O’Hara, who also criticised the Welshman for his defence of Arsenal’s second goal.
Many Spurs supporters were incensed by the softness of the goals the Lilywhites gave up in the first half, even if Tottenham did manage to even the score in the second half by bringing two goals back.
Although the two goals Spurs gave up from set pieces have received a lot of attention, O’Hara made the observation that Davies did not bathe himself in glory for Arsenal‘s second goal.
Shortly after Tottenham’s penalty claim was denied for what appeared to be a tripped Dejan Kulusevski in the box, the goal was scored. Bukayo Saka was swiftly released by the opposition, and he easily skipped inside Davies before putting the ball past Guglielmo Vicario.
Jamie O’Hara desires the sale of Ben Davies.
The 30-year-old Tottenham defender did not meet O’Hara’s expectations, and the coach should have showed Saka the outside.
“We go 2-0 down, Ben Davies, shouldn’t be playing left-back but has to play left-back, he’s not good enough,” the analyst said on talkSPORT. We must get rid of it.
“Show Saka to his right and away from the objective. You let him in and he simply placed one in the lower corner. You are aware of his next move. He will undoubtedly do it, you know.
Davies is a strong defender who rarely gives up easy in one-on-one matches. Saka, an elite winger for Arsenal, is skilled in these kinds of scenarios, therefore the Welshman is not the last player the Arsenal player would abandon.
