Tottenham struggles to score in Premier League under De Zerbi
Summary

Tottenham Hotspur remains without a Premier League goal this season after four games. The club, having invested £320 million in new talent, is joined only by Coventry City in failing to find the net. New manager Roberto De Zerbi's tactics, which emphasize playing through pressure, have not yet translated into scoring. The return of James Maddison from injury may provide a much-needed boost to Spurs' attacking play moving forward.
