The Londenaren's struggles are not limited to their attacking prowess, as they have also struggled to create scoring opportunities. In their match against Nottingham Forest, the team had a limited number of chances in the first half, with Omar Marmoush having the best opportunity to score when he shot high over the goal. Marmoush also had the chance to pass the ball to Mohammed Kudus, who was making a run behind the defense.
Despite the defensive solidity of Jan Paul van Hecke and Micky van de Ven, the team's defense was put to the test in the second half. Van de Ven had a chance to score from a corner kick, but he headed the ball wide. The team's defense was also put under pressure when Van Hecke was caught out by Sandro Tonali, who failed to clear the ball after a pass from Morgan Gibbs-White. However, the VAR did not award a goal to Tottenham Hotspur after Neco Williams' shot was disallowed due to a handball.
The match ended in a goalless draw, with Tottenham Hotspur still searching for their first win in the Premier League. The team's struggles are a concern, especially given the significant investment made in the summer. The next step for Tottenham Hotspur will be to regroup and try to find a way to break down their opponents' defenses.
