Tottenham fans call to decide Nuno’s future at the club. Ex Wolves manager, Nuno Espirito Santo Joined Tottenham Hotspur back in June. But since then, the club has lost three consecutive Premier League games to Crystal Palace, Chelsea, and Arsenal. They now rank 20th in the league for shots and chances created this season, something that hasn’t gone unnoticed by Tottenham supporters.
Now, Tottenham Hotspur Supporters’ Trust (THST) has requested to meet the club’s board to discuss its “short and long-term strategic vision”.
The Spurs were top of the league after winning their opening three games but now are ranked 20th out of 20 for shots and chances created. Plus, have covered less distance on the pitch than any other side.
A statement from the Tottenham Hotspur Supporters’ Trust read:
“Over the past few weeks, we’ve been contacted by an increasing number of trust members and the wider fan base who are extremely concerned about the current direction of THFC.
“We have asked for a meeting with the club’s executive board to discuss both the short and long-term strategic vision for the football club.
“This (potential) meeting, therefore, is an opportunity for the decision-makers at THFC to explain their plans to supporters.
“This explanation should include plans for this season and beyond, an explanation of how success will be measured and how the club’s DNA will be regained.”
Gary Neville warned that the disappointing loss in the north London derby 3-1 to Arsenal may be the least of Tottenham’s worries, saying that their performance during the game was “appalling”. Spurs conceded three goals in just 34 minutes at the Emirates to an Arsenal side that had only scored twice in their last five Premier League matches this season.
Neville said:
“Arsenal had a far better application to the game, but Tottenham’s game plan looked really basic. It looked like they just wanted to knock it forward at any cost, and they were playing aimless balls forward. Spurs’ courage to play, their appetite to win the ball back and get forward was completely different from what it was against Chelsea last week, and Arsenal ran all over them. It was a really poor first half,
“In the second half, you could say Harry Kane should have scored two or three goals and could have had a penalty. But Harry Kane is not right, there is something obviously not right with him at the moment, he doesn’t look happy at all.
“That’s a bad day for Nuno and those Tottenham players because their fans will have left the ground thinking there are more problems than just losing 3-1 to Arsenal.”
