Igor Tudor has said Tottenham Hotspur 'lacked everything' after falling to defeat at Fulham.
Tottenham's torrid season reached a new low after a 2-1 defeat at Craven Cottage on Sunday. Harry Wilson and Alex Iwobi fired Fulham into an early lead, with Spurs struggling to get control of the game.
The visitors were left furious with Wilson's opener after a push from Raul Jimenez on Radu Dragusin in the build-up, with VAR controversially allowing the goal to stand. Tudor slammed the decision, branding it an 'incredible mistake' from the officials.
Richarlison did pull a goal back for Spurs on 66 minutes, but the visitors were unable to rally and find an equaliser in a meek performance.
The defeat continues a woeful 2026 for Tottenham, who are now winless in 10 league games. It's the club's longest league run without a win since 1994 and continues a difficult start for Tudor, who has lost both of his matches in charge.
Their latest loss leaves the club four points above thePremier League relegation places, but Tudor does not want the focus to be on a potential drop into the second tier.
"We were not good, lacked everything. Attacking and defending. Fulham were much better," the interim manager said toSky Sports.
"There are problems here, big problems. We need to stay calm, believe in what we are doing in training, and get out, staying all together.
"These are not things to speak outside, we speak in the dressing room. The problems are more complex [than attitude and commitment] second half was better, but the first half was not enough.
"We are just thinking about the next game. We don't need to think about that [relegation] not because it cannot happen, but we must focus on growing mentality as a team, concentration, physically. These are the only goals we must have."
