Tottenham continues to suffer bitter defeats and this time they lost at home with a narrow score of 2-1, even though Celso managed to score a quick goal in the 22nd minute.
Tottenham Hotspur missed 9 points in last 3 games otherwise they would be first in the ranking with a safe points difference from the second team. Aston Villa did a good job turning the table upside down on Spurs head and picking a victory.
If Tottenham will continue like that then they will find themselves overtaken by Manchester United or Newcastle in the next round since these two teams will face each other and Spurs will have to face Manchester City!
Tottenham seemed to have lost the spirit of their game like before. Losing 9 points in a row is certainly quite distressing. Spurs are also threatened with dropping points again in the next match against Manchester City. The Spurs manager certainly has to rack his brains to restore the confidence of his players so they can return to a winning trend. But I think it will be very difficult for Spurs to recover until next week's meeting.
