Arsenal fans blast ‘horrific’ Leno and Sokratis after Eriksen scores simple Spurs goal

ARSENAL fans have ripped into Bernd Leno and Sokratis after Tottenham were gifted an early opener during the North London derby.

Christian Eriksen simply slotted the ball into the net after the Gunners goalkeeper parried the ball into his path.

Tottenham's move started after Hugo Lloris pumped the ball up the pitch towards Harry Kane. 

Sokratis charged out of position - which left a gaping hole in Arsenal's defence.

Son-Heung min picked up possession before he laid it off to team-mate Erik Lamela.

As David Luiz was also caught out of position, the Argentine ace went for a shot on goal.

Leno attempted to save the effort, but instead parried it into the path of Eriksen, who could not miss from close range.

After watching their side go behind after a promising start, Arsenal fans went wild on Twitter.

One said: "Arsenal are a complete shambles at the back. You'd think the way Leno saved that, he'd just saved an absolute stinger of a shot."

Another concluded: "Leno, Leno, Leno... today isn't the day to make a mistake."

While one claimed: "Sokratis' fault. Why did he go up for that header?"

Despite his dodgy start, Leno proved his potential minutes later as he made an incredible save to deny Son's long-distance effort.
