TOTTENHAM are on a disastrous run of form with performances under Nuno Espirito Santo are at rock bottom, and the stats show it.
Spurs have lost five games in the Premier League this season – they have only played ten.
They rank ninth in the division for shots on target, falling some way short of Daniel Levy's promise to restore the DNA of the club after sacking Jose Mourinho.
And their form in Europe is not much better, with a draw against Rennes and defeats to Paco Ferreira and Vitesse in the Uefa Europa Conference League.
It is Spurs' struggle in front of goal that is proving most problematic.
Harry Kane is underperforming in every area of his game under Nuno and Son Heung-Min's goals have also dried up.
In the 3-0 defeat to Manchester United on Saturday fans began to voice their discontent with Nuno and his style of play.
Considering his side failed to record a shot on target that is understandable.
Tottenham have now gone two hours and 16 minutes without recording a shot on target in the league – a Kane shot in the 44th minute against West Ham was their last.

If that was not bad enough, yesterday's failure to test David De Gea was the first home game Spurs have not recorded a shot on target since 2013.
Nuno is taking the club backwards – not since 2013-14 have Spurs scored fewer than ten goals in their opening ten games.
The current side has nine, and Kane has just one of those.
The club hierarchy is holding talks to discuss Nuno's future, and it seems Levy could be ready to make yet another managerial change.
