Spence made to wait
Djed Spence's wait for his first Tottenham start goes on. Appearing to be the perfect game for the right wing-back to come into the Spurs starting XI, Antonio Conte instead opted for Emerson Royal down the right as Matt Doherty dropped out of the side.
Amid all the high hopes Spurs fans had for Spence at the start of the season as they believed he could be the man to solve their right wing-back woes, they had only seen him play a grand total of 28 minutes across five appearances prior to the FA Cup tie. The decision to not start Spence understandably led to much frustration from the Tottenham faithful as they made their feelings perfectly clear.
