Charlie Austin criticizes Tottenham form following loss to Newcastle United

Tottenham remains under scrutiny after a 2-0 defeat by Newcastle United on Sunday extended a poor run of home form. The club has managed only three wins in its last 23 Premier League matches played at home. Former striker Charlie Austin described the team's current performance as alarming, specifically noting that the club has failed to show improvement despite significant investment during the transfer window. Austin contrasted the results with the early performance of Matthias Jaissle, who has overseen two positive displays with less preparation time. Roberto de Zerbi continues to manage the squad, though the club faces pressure to integrate new signings. Austin emphasized that financial expenditure does not guarantee success and highlighted the importance of collective mentality as the team attempts to resolve its ongoing inconsistency.
