The north London derby between Tottenham and Arsenal left Jamie Carragher disappointed with one player, saying he has been “very poor all season.” Jarred Gillett, the referee, flagged many yellow cards in a heated first half at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as both teams struggled to convert their opportunities. In the 68th minute, Arsenal took the lead thanks to a header from Gabriel Magalhaes off a corner.
Tottenham made an attempt to tie the game, but were unable to do so, which gave Arsenal their ninth away victory of the season in ten Premier League games.
Jamie Carragher was upset with Tottenham’s Cristian Romero during the game and criticized his “very poor” performance thus far this season on Twitter. Romero, who played every minute for Tottenham this season despite having a busy summer with Argentina in the Copa America, which included the final against Colombia, was unable to stop their loss.
