Aurier helped Tottenham Hotspur to a 1-0 win in Dortmund on Tuesday.
Several Tottenham Hotspur fans have reached a conclusion regarding Spurs’ problematic right wing-back position.
Kieran Trippier, Serge Aurier and Kyle Walker-Peters have each been deployed there this season, yielding varying degrees of success.
Trippier, in particular, has struggled of late, while the jury has remained largely undecided on Serge Aurier.
But it was the latter who got the nod in Dortmund on Tuesday and, just like the first leg at Wembley, helped Tottenham to a clean sheet against the Bundesliga leaders.
And the following Spurs fans now believe it is now Aurier’s place to lose.
This is what they’re saying on Twitter…
Trippier established himself as Tottenham’s first-choice in his position after Kyle Walker’s sale to Manchester City and later excelled for England at the 2018 World Cup.
But the 28-year-old has failed to recapture his previous form this season.
Tottenham’s 1-0 win at Signal Iduna Park, which arrived courtesy of Harry Kane’s emphatic finish, ensured a stress-free passage to the Champions League quarter-finals.
Who should be Spurs’ first-choice right wing-back?
