Former Watford forward has criticised Tottenham Hotspur’s half-time gesture during their 2-2 draw with Newcastle United on Tuesday, calling it ’embarrassing.’<\/strong><\/p>\n

Deeney Criticises Tottenham Half-Time Huddle<\/h2>\n

After losing their previous three games, Tottenham came to St. James’ Park looking to get their campaign back on track. However, their first-half performance was unconvincing, with Newcastle creating more goal-scoring opportunities.<\/p>\n

Before going down the tunnel at half-time, Tottenham’s outfield players came together for a huddle on the pitch.<\/p>\n

It was the second game that Spurs players had a huddle at half-time. They also did it in the 2-1 defeat against Fulham on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Ex-Watford man Troy Deeney claimed that the huddle was an exhibition of togetherness for the public and found it embarrassing.<\/p>\n
