After Arsenal moved into fourth by beating Manchester United
in the lunchtime kickoff, Spurs fluffed their lines with a sub-par performance
in west London and again looked devoid of all attacking creativity — like in
losing to Brighton 1-0 last weekend.
It could have been even worse, with Ivan Toney denied by the
woodwork twice as Brentford — whose team included former Tottenham player
Christian Eriksen — almost made it four wins in a row.
Tottenham’s front three of Harry Kane, Son Heung-min and
Dejan Kulusevski were again blunted and it looks as if Spurs, who scored a glut
of goals in recent weeks, have been found out.
Their top-four hopes remain in their own hands, however, as
they still have Arsenal to play at home in a game that is looking like being
decisive in the race for Champions League qualification.
Tottenham is fifth, two points behind Arsenal and four clear
of sixth-placed Manchester United.
