Tottenham Drop Into Relegation Zone After 5 Winless Games

Summary
Five matches without a win have left Tottenham in the relegation zone, deepening an early-season slide under Roberto De Zerbi.
Bad finishing and repeated defensive errors drove the latest defeat to Aston Villa, with Spurs described as wasteful in one box and self-destructive in the other.
De Zerbi called Villa's second goal "unacceptable" and, in a striking sign of frustration, said he did not speak to his players after the match.
The international break now interrupts any immediate reset, with some players not due back for more than two weeks as Tottenham try to stop the slump becoming another humiliating season.
