Tottenham Hotspur have not enjoyed their matches against Nottingham Forest the past few seasons, and today was another disheartening performance at the City Ground. Tottenham looked second best from the opening kick, conceded a brace to Callum Hudson-Odoi and an absolute cracker from Ibrahim Sangare, and shambled to a 3-0 loss to Forest on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The stats are grim: Forest out-xG\u2019d Spurs 1.91-0.37, and out-shot them 15-6 despite the possession being basically even. Tottenham actually looked somewhat okay defensively \u2014 two of the goals were flukish \u2014 but once again looked completely lost going forward with no creativity, terrible passing, and a complete lack of ideas of what to do when the ball got near the Forest area. This was against a Forest team that started the match in 17th place and that\u2019s on its third manager of the season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">It was bad, folks. Real, real bad.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The loss drops Spurs down to 11th in the table, well off the pace for anything close to European qualification, and not exactly setting a good tone as they head into the crowded festive fixture period. There was not much to like today.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Here are my match reactions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Burn after reading.
