Premier League 2018-19, Newcastle United 1-2 Tottenham Hotspur: 4 key takeaways from the match

#4 Aurier remains a turbulent problem

Aurier was a liability for Tottenham whenever asked to perform defensive duties

Aurier was a big influence on the pattern of the game, but not just because of his beautiful assist for Alli.

He was a liability for Tottenham whenever asked to perform defensive duties, struggling to cope with the hosts' surges forward and may have even picked up a booking for an early challenge on Jonjo Shelvey.

Fans of The Lilywhites must be praying for Kieran Tripper, goalscorer for England at the recent World Cup, to regain fitness and form as soon as possible, to avoid any more calamitous performances from Ivorian Aurier.
