After another shaky performance at Craven Cottage, Tottenham’s nightmare run continued with a 2–1 loss to Fulham in the Premier League — and now the pressure on the North London side isn’t just about form… it’s about survival. The defeat deepens Spurs’ relegation anxieties and piles on the pressure for interim boss Igor Tudor.

- 🥅 Spurs Fight Back: Substitute Richarlison grabbed a headed goal in the second half to set up a tense finish — but it wasn’t enough.

Relegation Narrative: Spiral or Survival?
Tottenham’s loss doesn’t just hurt on the day — it keeps their winless league run alive and inches them closer to danger. They’ve now gone ten Premier League matches without a win, a barren stretch not seen in years.
At 16th place, Spurs sit only four points above the relegation zone — a precarious margin with half the season still to go. Even manager Igor Tudor has admitted the situation is “very complicated,” urging fans to stay united while insisting on work to improve performances.
Relegation — historically unthinkable for a club of Spurs’ stature — is now a genuine talking point, with pundits warning that without a turnaround, the race to beat the drop could go right down to the wire.
