Tottenham Hotspur have endured a difficult run this year and have managed only three league wins in 2021.
The only positive for Spurs in recent weeks has been their progress to the EFL Cup final, which they managed by defeating Brentford in the first week of January.
José Mourinho has seen his side win only one of the last six matches, and this includes league defeats against Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester City, and an elimination from the FA Cup at the hands of Everton.
Davinson Sánchez started in his side’s last two defeats against Everton and City, and his performances were crticised by a section of the English media and former players.
Marca in Colombia say the criticism towards the 24-year-old doesn’t stop and continues to rise like ‘foam in beer’.
It’s claimed the Colombia international is experiencing a ‘rollercoaster of emotions’ with Mourinho this season. Marca are of the belief lack of continuity is the reason for a dip in Sánchez’s form.
‘It’s no secret’ the South American is playing with the ‘weight of an enormous responsibility’ on his shoulders after his manager didn’t count on him earlier this campaign.
Sánchez scored a brace against Everton, but he still ended up on the losing side. The report states the exit from the FA Cup is ‘sure to have surprised Davinson himself’.
He’s determined to overcome the poor form and is ‘wanting to remove the thorn’ to showcase his qualities. Despite this, Marca explain the player has ‘hit rock bottom’ at the Premier League club, and his name is on ‘everyone’s lips’ following his poor displays in recent outings.
