This season has been nothing short of a nightmare for Tottenham Hotspur. The North London club, known for its free-flowing football in recent years, has endured a torrid campaign, with poor performances across the board and constant scrutiny from fans and pundits alike.
While the club’s chairman Daniel Levy has been the target of considerable criticism, manager Ange Postecoglou has also faced his fair share of questions.
The players, too, have not been spared, with even captain Heung-min Son being on the receiving end of some harsh assessments. It is hard to argue with the critics. Tottenham’s current position speaks volumes about their struggles.
After 24 games, the Lilywhites sit in 14th place in the Premier League table with just 27 points, a massive 16 points adrift of the top four. The more worrying fact is that they are only 10 points above the relegation zone.
Among the many struggling stars at Tottenham, Richarlison’s dip in form has been particularly striking.
Having joined Spurs for £60m, the Brazilian was expected to bring grit, determination, and goals to the team, but according to Troy Deeney, something is missing from Richarlison’s game.
