‘Not good enough’: Paul Merson calls for Conte to replace Spurs star



In line with Paul Merson, Tottenham Hotspur defender Emerson Royal is just not adequate for Antonio Conte’s staff.

Spurs paid £25.7 million to signal the Brazilian defender from Barcelona final 12 months, however he has didn’t dwell as much as the expectations and has been a disappointment.

The 23-year-old Brazilian has been on the receiving finish of a barrage of criticism over the previous 12 months and after final weekend’s sending-off for the nasty deal with on Gabriel Martinelli, the disapproval has solely elevated.

In his column for Sportskeeda, Paul Merson blamed Emerson Royal for Tottenham’s heavy defeat to arch-rivals Arsenal within the North London derby and referred to as for Conte to think about changing the appropriate wing-back. He wrote:

“I don’t know what Emerson Royal was doing, he’s not adequate and his facet have been embarrassed by their native rivals owing to his purple card.

“Emerson Royal just isn’t adequate and tends to wrestle badly when he’s off it. I like Ivan Perisic, however he isn’t getting any youthful, so Conte has a factor or two to consider.” 

Conte’s system is closely reliant on wing-backs, and whereas Spurs has sufficient high quality on the left facet in Perisic and Sessegnon, the Italian supervisor would possibly have to strengthen the appropriate wing-back place in January.
