Paulo Gazzaniga has enjoyed a run in the Tottenham first-team since Hugo Lloris picked up a long-term injury against Brighton in October, and on the whole he has performed quite well.
In his 20 games this term he has kept four clean sheets and conceded 27 goals, but considering several Spurs defenders have come under fire this season, including Jan Vertonghen and Serge Aurier, he is fairing quite well.
However, the fact that Lloris will likely come straight back into the side suggests the Argentine hasn’t set the world alight, which is why some supporters have aimed criticism at him even on his birthday.

As a result, he is still yet to persuade the whole fanbase that he is capable of being the number one ahead of the Frenchman, and therefore he hasn’t made the most of his opportunity.

Meanwhile, fans have been reacting to more bad injury news as Harry Kane was witnessed leaving St. Mary’s on crutches after the defeat to Southampton.
