Against Everton, Tottenham recorded their highest totals both for distance covered (110.9km) and high-intensity sprints (151) in any game this season, according to Premier League tracking data.
For me, whilst this is essentially a pleasing development, there is a case to say that this has come at some cost. Spurs are seriously struggling to string together anything resembling attractive or particularly threatening football. The game against Everton was certainly an animated affair, but what of shots on our opponent’s goal?
A billion-pound stadium and a team that is still a work in progress.
