The last time Tottenham won in the Premier League was from December 28, 2025, which was the 1-0 result against Crystal Palace, a team also in crisis. Since then until after round 28, Spurs played 10 more matches and only drew 4 matches, corresponding to only 4/30 absolute points.
If we say Tottenham is "down in form", that is not enough because their situation is too bad, not just a normal free fall. In the remaining 10 matches, if they want to stay in the Premier League in the context of an extremely harsh league, Tottenham must win even more, but who is sure they will do that?
It's hard to believe that the team with the 9th highest revenue last season in Europe, owning the most modern stadium in London, the top in England, is facing the risk of leaving the Premier League. The relegation ghost has never threatened Tottenham for many years, but now, right now, it is closer than ever.
Last month, the only measure the club's leadership could take was to fire Thomas Frank, thereby appointing Igor Tudor. Tudor does not need to create any revolution, just need to do something to help Tottenham win. However, the new Croatian captain has not yet realized that expectation.
Before losing to Fulham 1-2, Tottenham was crushed 1-4 against Arsenal in the first match Tudor coached. The 47-year-old strategist only had exactly 2 weeks to work with the players and the results could not improve. In the context of being extremely struggling in the Premier League, with a force lacking too many stars, Spurs had to participate in the Champions League again. Their mind and fitness certainly cannot meet the demand and a complete collapse could come in the next 2 weeks.
Not only the lack of force and fluctuating form, the saddest thing at Tottenham at this time is that the stars are no longer interested in playing football, even with those considered pillars. Tudor himself after the defeat to Fulham also said that the problem is not at all in tactics or systems. When the Croatian coach said this, his responsibility to the club will be slightly reduced because this collapse was not caused by Tudor.
From the beginning of 2026 to now, coinciding with the time when Spurs have drawn and lost all, there have been many matches where they did not know what to do to equalize or maintain the advantage. In matches against Arsenal, Newcastle and Man United, Tottenham played without soul. This playing style continued to repeat when they clashed with Fulham.
In the starting lineup in the most recent match, Tottenham is not without stars. In the defense, there are still Micky van de Ven and Pedro Porro. Above them are Joao Palhinha and Conor Gallagher. The forward line is full of names like Xavi Simons or Randal Kolo Muani. Spurs finished the first half with 2 goals conceded and almost received the 3rd goal when Oscar Bobb easily passed Palhinha and passed to Emile Smith Rowe.
Tottenham's lack of soul also comes from the fact that they don't even have anyone who knows how to control the tempo and regulate the play. All they do is pass to the wing and hope to cross into the penalty area to find a cut point. Richarlison's header was a good combination, Spurs' best play in the match. However, they didn't know how to take advantage of that or repeat it. It was just a single chance.
On a tiring day at Craven Cottage, Tottenham players seemed to want the final whistle to sound early to end the pain.
If Spurs can win a victory after the last 10 draws and losses, the feeling of winning 3 points may return. They must realize that if they lose 1-2 more matches, the door to relegation will be wide open. Finding the feeling of victory is very important because if you lose it too long, when you find it again, you won't know how anymore.
Igor Tudor once said, Spurs need to revive the hidden strength in each person to win. He also said, just having 1 win, all the bad things that just happened may fall into the past. In front of them in the Premier League will be Crystal Palace and Liverpool. The challenge is very difficult, but if they don't overcome it now, there will be no time left.
