Tottenham star Juan Foyth is out of form.
Late in 2018, Juan Foyth was on top of the world for Tottenham and Argentina.
He starred on his first Premier League start, scoring a winner away to Crystal Palace.
Days later he impressed for Argentina on his international debut.
Months on, it is all beginning to unravel.
Foyth performed poorly in defeats against Arsenal and most recently Southampton, emphasising the drop off when Toby Alderweireld is rested.
At the weekend Foyth’s poor form continued with his performance for Argentina.
He was selected as part of a new look defence and Argentina suffered a 3-1 home defeat to Venezuela.
Despite boasting Lionel Messi in attack, Venezuela cantered to victory, led by Newcastle’s Salomon Rondon.
Foyth looked nervous throughout and was given the runaround by the Newcastle star, and MLS ace Josef Martinez.
Tottenham ace Foyth ended up giving away a penalty in the defeat.
It served to indicate that it may be too soon to expect the former Estudiantes player to be a starter at international level.
The Copa America will be held this summer and Foyth is a probable to be involved.
Whether he starts is another matter. He did himself no favours this week.
