Former striker has criticised ’s tactics after Tottenham Hotspur lost 1-0 to Brighton and Hove Albion in the Premier League on Saturday.
In a lacklustre game at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, a 90th-minute winner from Leandro Trossard resulted in the Seagulls surprisingly claiming all three points.
The result will be a bitter blow to Spurs’ chances of securing football, but they will remain in fourth place for now after Arsenal’s defeat at Southampton.
Spurs were nothing short of awful against Brighton, registering just five shots, none on target, in the game, despite going into the match on the back of a four-game winning run, that included a 2-0 victory over Graham Potter’s side in March.
Speaking on Premier League Productions post-match, Wright blasted Spurs’ performance, focusing heavily on their tactical shortcomings: ‘I can’t understand the tactics today, they played like an away side.
‘They weren’t passing through the lines, Harry Kane wasn’t coming short, they weren’t pressing Brighton high to win the ball in the last third, to win the ball in those high areas to then attack them and it was very confusing when you consider what they’ve done leading into this game.
‘But Brighton showed that little bit of class in the end and they won the game.’
Conte’s side will be hoping for much better when they travel across London for their next match against Brentford next Saturday.
