The fall of Tottenham: A 2:1 loss in London derby against West Ham
After a strong start to the season, Tottenham Hotspur’s performance has taken a downward turn, with their latest setback being a 2:1 home loss to West Ham in the London derby on Thursday. The defeat has left Ange Postecoglou’s team in fifth place, three points away from fourth place.
This loss marked the fifth consecutive game without a win for Tottenham, who have been plagued by a particularly embarrassing streak. In their last five games, of which they lost four, they have led 0:1 over their opponents but managed to secure only one point out of a possible 15, with a 3:3 draw against Manchester City.
In fact, Tottenham has lost the most points (16 points) from a dominant position in all seven major European leagues this season.
The ‘Daily Mail’ expressed disappointment with Tottenham’s performance, stating, “Tottenham threw away another game in which they were in the lead, it just keeps happening to them and that’s the problem. From a five point gap at the top to five games without a win and they must find answers soon. West Ham did provide a great comeback but Tottenham can only blame herself. Again.”
Ange Postecoglou also voiced his frustration, stating, “People say we play good football, but we don’t show that we succeed in deciding the way we play. People say we play beautifully, but that’s not what I’m aiming for. I want to win.”
As Tottenham continues to sink in the standings, it remains to be seen if they can turn their season around and regain their momentum.
