Antonio Conte was left a disappointed man at the final whistle of Tottenham's flat 1-0 defeat at home to Brighton on Saturday and a quick dip into his players' stats show exactly why.
Spurs had been on a run of seven wins out of nine Premier League matches but they produced a dismal display at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium against Graham Potter's well organised side. Tottenham will have had a week to put things right before they travel to in-form Brentford side with former Spurs midfielder Christian Eriksen pulling the strings.
After the defeat to the Seagulls, Conte explained: "Brighton were very good to close every space, but we helped our opponent because we moved the ball slowly. We are able to do much better than today. Maybe a more fair final result was a draw, but Brighton played a good game. They're a really good team, well organised with a good manager, and if you win against Arsenal and Tottenham away, it means your team is a good team."
