Tudor after defeat: There are problems here, big problems
Tottenham's woes deepened with a 2-1 loss to Fulham, marking their tenth consecutive match without victory in the Premier League, prompting coach Igor Tudor to acknowledge significant issues within the team.
Tottenham Hotspur faced another disappointing defeat, losing 2-1 to local rivals Fulham, which has now extended their winless streak to ten matches in the Premier League. Fulham took an early lead with a goal from Harry Wilson in the 7th minute, confirmed after a VAR review, and followed up with a second goal by Alex Iwobi in the 34th minute. Despite a solitary goal from Richarlison in the 66th minute, Tottenham was unable to turn the match around, leaving them in a precarious position.
Following the defeat, coach Igor Tudor expressed his frustrations, acknowledging the team's poor performance both offensively and defensively. He lamented the lack of quality on the pitch and emphasized the urgent need for improvement within the squad. It is Tudor's second consecutive loss since taking over at Spurs, and he pointed out that there are major problems that need addressing if the team hopes to turn their fortunes around.
Despite the challenging circumstances, Tudor refrained from overdramatizing the team's fight for relegation, instead urging his players to focus on growth and improvement. He highlighted the necessity for the team to develop mentally, concentrate better, and increase their physicality. Tottenham currently sits four points above the relegation zone, but their ongoing struggles have placed them under significant pressure as they seek to secure positive results in the remaining matches of the season.
