AI summary
Tottenham's worst league start since 2008-09 continued with a goalless draw at home to Everton, leaving them without a goal in four consecutive Premier League matches. Despite spending £302m in the summer transfer window and following back-to-back 17th-place finishes, Spurs have managed only one victory in five matches across all competitions—a Carabao Cup win over Charlton. The home crowd's frustration was evident as attackers repeatedly lacked conviction in front of goal, with the ironic cheers that greeted Fernandes's weak shot in the second half capturing the mood.
