“Man City Fans Slam One Player After Shocking Loss to Tottenham Hotspur”
Manchester City fans have expressed their frustration with one player following a dismal 4-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur at the Etihad Stadium.
City, who were hoping to close the gap to Premier League leaders Liverpool, had a rough outing on Saturday evening. The mood had been positive heading into the match after Pep Guardiola signed a new contract, extending his stay at the club until 2027. However, things took a turn for the worse as City endured a disastrous first half.
James Maddison’s brace gave Spurs a commanding 2-0 lead at halftime, and further goals from Pedro Porro and Brennan Johnson in the second half sealed a humiliating 4-0 loss. This defeat marked City’s fifth consecutive loss in all competitions.
Fans took to social media to voice their displeasure with the performance of defender Kyle Walker. One fan vented, “Walker should never play again. He’s out of position for both goals, and his touches have been terrible. It’s not just this game, it’s been happening for months.” Another fan echoed the sentiment, stating, “Walker needs to leave now. He’s been dreadful, and we need to move on from him.”
Some even suggested extreme measures, with one supporter saying, “If it means Pep Guardiola has to leave so Kyle Walker stays on the bench forever, I’ll drive Pep to the airport myself.”
Gary Neville, speaking on Sky Sports, criticized City’s defensive setup, saying, “Lewis and Walker have been torn apart. That goal from Maddison was a thing of beauty.” Former Spurs goalkeeper Paul Robinson added on BBC Radio 5 Live, “Man City’s defense is all over the place. Tottenham players running at them are causing real problems.”
As City’s struggles continue, it’s clear that many fans are calling for significant changes, particularly in the defense, if they are to turn their season around.
