Spurs are worst in the Premier League at one key attacking stat
Tottenham Hotspur are the joint worst in the Premier League when it comes to one key attacking stat, which explains why Ange Postecoglou’s men are struggling to pick up results consistently.
Spurs are far from being the finished product
While Tottenham’s underlying attacking and defensive metrics this season have been more than decent, they have struggled to convert their dominance into victories.
The Lilywhites have picked up just one away win so far this season, and unless they improve that stat, they are unlikely to be involved in the race for Champions League qualification.
A stat has now emerged that shows exactly what Spurs’ main shortcoming has been so far this season.
Spurs worst in the PL at one stat
Official Premier League statistics show that the Lilywhties are among the worst when it comes to converting big chances.
Tottenham have missed 22 big chances so far this campaign in their nine Premier League matches, which is the joint most along with Manchester United.
This suggests that unless Spurs’ forwards find their goalscoring boots soon, they are going to struggle to get wins on the board and push themselves up the table.
Spurs have other concerns
While Tottenham’s inability to put chances away was their primary problem at the start of the season, one can argue that they have been better in that respect over recent weeks.
However, other issues have reared their heads in the defeats to Brighton and Palace, namely their inability to fight and claw themselves back into the contest when things start going against them.
