Kieran Trippier had a trying afternoon for Tottenham Hotspur.

Kieran Trippier has received a barrage of criticism for his performance for Tottenham Hotspur this afternoon.

The England right-back was given the run-around all day by Leicester City winger Harvey Barnes.

Barnes got the better of the Tottenham defender on quite a few occasions, and it nearly proved costly in the second half, but Hugo Lloris denied the 21-year-old in a one-on-one situation.

Despite starring for the Three Lions at the World Cup last summer, Trippier has been nowhere near as impressive in a Spurs shirt this season.

And here’s how fans of the North London club reacted to his latest outing.

Despite the erratic display from Trippier, the Lilywhites held out to move back within five points of top-of-the-table Liverpool.

Son Heung-min made it 3-1 late on after Jamie Vardy – who also missed a penalty – had halved the deficit, following goals from Davinson Sanchez and Christian Eriksen.
