Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham Hotspur have suffered a defeat to Fulham in the London derby, and one of the Spurs players who did not have a good game was Radu Dragusin.
Tottenham Hotspur beat Aston Villa 4-0 at Villa Park in the Premier League last weekend and were expected to pick up all three points against Fulham at Craven Cottage.
However, Fulham won the Premier League match against Tottenham 3-0. Spurs were really poor in the London derby.
Radu Dragusin started the match for Tottenham. The 22-year-old Romania international was deployed alongside Cristian Romero at the heart of the Spurs defence.
It was Dragusin’s first start in the Premier League for Spurs, and he was disappointing. The defender was at fault for all three goals, although he looked good on the ball and looked calm and composed even after making the mistakes.
Gabriel Agbonlahor reacts to Radu Dragusin display for Tottenham Hotspur vs Fulham
Former Aston Villa striker and talkSPORT pundit Gabriel Agbonlahor has described Dragusin’s performance as “poor”.
Agbonlahor said on talkSPORT (7:37 pm, March 16, 2024): “I thought Dragusin looked poor, but he has not had games, has he? So, you can’t dig him out. You definitely missed Van de Ven.”
My View: Let us be patient with Radu Dragusin
In my opinion, Tottenham Hotspur fans should not write off Radu Dragusin after his performance against Fulham.
Yes, it was a disappointing display from Dragusin, but he is only 22. And, the Romania international centre-back has had not enough matches for Tottenham since his move from Genoa in the January transfer window.
The match against Fulham was the first time that the youngster started for Tottenham in the Premier League. I think that the 22-year-old will get better in the coming months and years.
