Several Tottenham Hotspur supporters are struggling to understand why Davinson Sanchez hasn’t been in the starting line-up recently.

The Colombian international has been dropped to the bench by Jose Mourinho of late and hasn’t started in any of their last three matches in all competitions against Norwich City, Southampton and Middlesbrough (Transfermarkt).
Instead, the Portuguese manager has opted to play Belgian duo Toby Alderweireld and Jan Vertonghen in the heart of defence, but it hasn’t exactly paid off.
Indeed, they have won none of the three fixtures with two draws and a loss and in that time they have shipped four goals (Transfermarkt).
Sanchez started the three games prior and Spurs’ results were better, beating both Wolves and Brighton either side of a defeat against Chelsea (Transfermarkt).
Fans have noticed that results were better with the 23-year-old in the team and as a result, many want to see him brought back for their next match against Liverpool.
Here is what some have been saying on Twitter…
Baffling, been the stand out performer in the games he’s started lately, mourinho seemed to really have a positive impact on him, something we don’t know

We need to volume it. He should be playing. Faster than all other players

Easily our best defender. Jose doesn’t fancy him. Weird.
