Despite pouring in as much as 550 billion won, they have not scored a single goal yet. England's Tottenham failed to secure another victory.
On the 13th (Korea time), Tottenham drew 0-0 with Everton in their home match at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England, during Round 4 of the 2026–2027 English Premier League (EPL).
With this draw, Tottenham's record stands at two draws and two losses (two points), leaving them in 17th place in the league.
Most seriously, their goal-scoring ability is lacking. In four league matches this season, Tottenham has failed to score a single goal. After losing 0-3 to Brentford and 0-2 to Newcastle, they drew 0-0 with Nottingham Forest, and once again failed to open the scoring against Everton on this day.
The result is even more shocking given that Tottenham invested heavily in the summer transfer market to significantly strengthen their squad.
Harsh criticism also erupted from local British media. On this day, The Times of Britain noted while covering the Everton match: "Tottenham still cannot score in the EPL. And home fans have responded with boos."
Another British outlet, The Guardian, pointed out that despite investing a huge sum, Tottenham has failed to score in their opening four matches. In particular, as they struggled to create threatening moments during the Everton match, even cold cheers were heard among home fans whenever Tottenham registered an on-target shot.
The Sun also noted: "Tottenham spent 300 million pounds (about 550 billion won) on a rebuild, yet still have no goals in the EPL."
Tottenham's frustration was evident not only on the pitch but also from the bench. Manager Roberto De Zerbi received a yellow card after strongly protesting a referee decision in the second half at the 43rd minute. Even the manager could not contain his emotions amid the frustrating flow of a game where no goal had yet broken through.
The match performance was also unsatisfactory. Tottenham recorded 14 total shots, more than Everton's 12, but failed to convert them into decisive threats. In fact, there were few moments that truly threatened the opposing goalkeeper, while Everton created several clear chances and struck at Tottenham's goal on multiple occasions.
Manager De Zerbi introduced three attackers at once in the second half — Lucas Bergvall, Mathys Tel, and Mohamed Kudus — to change up the attack. At the 32nd minute of the second half, he also brought on James Maddison, but the result remained unchanged. Tottenham ultimately finished the match without scoring again.
The frustrating situation was clearly reflected in the attackers' ratings as well. According to football statistics site FotMob, striker Dominic Solanke received a rating of just 5.7. Omar Marmoush also earned 6.3, and Matheus Fernandes received 6.7.
In contrast, the player who received the highest evaluation for Tottenham on this day was not an attacker but goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky. Kinsky played the full match, stopping all of Everton's on-target shots to complete a scoreless game. FotMob awarded Kinsky the highest rating of 8.0 across both teams.
While it may have been a satisfactory performance for Kinsky personally, the fact that a goalkeeper was named MVP reflects Tottenham's bleak reality.
