Toothless Spurs blank again as new era turns into a false dawn
Tottenham Hotspur remain goal‑starved, drawing a blank once more. Their new era could turn into a false dawn, warns chief football writer Phil McNulty. The Spurs now face a critical period to prove their resurgence.
Tottenham Hotspur have yet again failed to find the back of the net, leaving their fans frustrated as the team draws a blank in recent fixtures.
The club's new era, which began with a change in management and a renewed ambition, now faces the risk of becoming a false dawn, according to BBC chief football writer Phil McNulty.
Without a steady stream of goals, the Spurs struggle to secure victories, and their position in the league table has become precarious.
The lack of firepower has prompted calls for tactical adjustments and a more decisive attacking approach from the coaching staff.
With several key fixtures ahead, Tottenham must address this goal‑scoring drought if they hope to keep their resurgence alive and avoid a disappointing season.
