Tottenham fans insist the duo should never start together again after the “embarrassing” loss to Arsenal

Tottenham supporters feel Thomas Frank must avoid starting two particular players together after the Arsenal defeat.

Eberechi Eze’s hat-trick powered Arsenal to a dominant 4–1 victory, leaving Richarlison’s long-range effort as nothing more than a consolation. Spurs produced several poor performances and are now winless in three Premier League games, slipping to ninth.

Fans have criticised Frank’s “stubborn” decision to pair Rodrigo Bentancur with Joao Palhinha in midfield, arguing the duo made the team far too defensive. In his first Premier League North London derby, Frank benched Pape Matar Sarr—who scored the winner in their pre-season meeting—while Bentancur, recently handed a new contract, started alongside Palhinha.

Many Spurs fans now insist the Bentancur-Palhinha partnership should not be used again, viewing it as a negative approach.
