Wait 5 sec.

Tottenham Hotspur’s start to the season has been a mix of highs and lows under Thomas Frank, but new data has revealed exactly how much time Spurs have spent winning, drawing and losing compared to their Premier League rivals.Thomas Frank’s Tottenham Hotspur side is yet to hit full flow under the Dane, with results remaining inconsistent at this stage of the campaign.The forwards and overall chance creation continue to be areas that require improvement, and Frank is well aware of that following the recent boos from Tottenham fans.The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is quickly becoming a one billion pound problem that Frank needs to fix, given Spurs’ poor home record this term, with Tottenham having won just one league match on home soil all season.Fixing that would naturally improve the one thing that matters most in football, and that is winning. Spurs have managed five wins from their opening eleven matches, drawing three and losing three to sit fifth in the table. But how long exactly have they spent in winning, drawing, and losing positions?Credit: PumaHow long have Tottenham spent losing in the Premier League this seasonAccording to data from Opta, Tottenham are among the sides to have spent the most time in losing positions this season.Wolverhampton Wanderers, who currently sit bottom of the table, lead this category, having spent 58% of their matches trailing.
