- Tottenham drew 0-0 with Nottingham Forest at the City Ground on Saturday, failing to score for a third consecutive Premier League match
- Spurs have now gone three league games without scoring to open a season for the first time since 1980
- Tottenham lost their opening two league fixtures to Brentford and Newcastle before Saturday's stalemate, leaving them with zero points from three games
- Neco Williams had a Nottingham Forest goal ruled out by VAR for handball after bundling the ball home from close range, sparing Spurs what could have been a fourth straight defeat
- Tottenham spent almost £400m in the summer transfer window, raising early-season scrutiny on a squad that has yet to find the net in league play
- Roberto De Zerbi is under immediate pressure as Spurs manager after three winless league games to begin his tenure's new season
Why it matters: A near-£400m summer rebuild has produced zero Premier League goals through three games — Tottenham's worst start since 1980 — putting Roberto De Zerbi under immediate pressure and exposing a squad that has so far failed to translate lavish spending into results.
