A third defeat in their past four Premier League games at home to Newcastle on Saturday left Tottenham 12th in the table.
But, when delving into their goalscoring statistics, supporters could be forgiven for wondering how exactly this has happened.
Ange Postecoglou's side have 15 fewer points than at this stage last season - despite scoring the same number of goals and conceding just one more.
So, how can that be?
Tottenham this season have been winning big and losing small.
Six of Spurs' seven wins have been by three or more goals - the exception being a 3-1 win over Brentford in September.
Nine of their 10 defeats have been by a single goal - including against the Magpies on Saturday - with the exception being the 6-3 defeat by Liverpool in December.
