Tottenham's players did little to detract from the criticism they're facing during their latest Premier League defeat.
Spurs were facing Newcastle United on Tuesday night in a contest that was hugely important following their run that has seen them win just once in their last seven games.
Unfortunately for Thomas Frank, that run has got even worse after being held to a 2-2 draw at St James' Park. Bruno Guimaraes gave the hosts the lead before Cristian Romero leveled the game. Anthony Gordon scored from the spot, before Romero netted a bicycle kick to see the game end in a draw.
Brennan Johnson Fails To Impress
Among many poor performances, Brennan Johnson was arguably Tottenham's most disappointing at St James' Park.
With Spurs struggling for attacking inspiration, the stage was set for Johnson to put in a big performance to prove himself as someone capable of leading Frank's side back up the table.
Xavi Simons, Mathys Tel and Richarlison were dropped to the bench, while Dominic Solanke and Dejan Kulusevski are missing through injury, meaning that the opportunity was there.
But Johnson failed to impress, recording no shots and just one chance created. He also had no successful dribbles and completed just 57 per cent of his passes.
Described by one fan as 'dreadful', the Wales star recorded a 4/10 rating in GIVEMESPORT's player ratings against the Magpies.
Tottenham Need To Sign Lethal Attackers
Tottenham are being massively let down by their attacking players. One win in their last eight games in simply not good enough and that is largely down to a lack of offensive options within the group.
Despite having a wealth of attacking talent in the squad, Spurs had to rely on Romero scoring a bra ce in order salvage a draw against Newcastle and that's not good enough.
Frank has too many players who lack consistency in the final third and that's why they're rooted in the bottom half of the table. Thankfully for them, the January window is just around the corner.
Spurs must sign players with a goal threat if they're going to improve their fortunes in the second half of the campaign. Antoine Semenyo is a player who is high up on their list of potential targets and based on this evidence, they need to move heaven and earth to ensure that they get their man.
