TOTTENHAM’S horror North London derby stats have been revealed following their dismal defeat to Arsenal.
Thomas Frank’s men were thrashed 4-1 at the Emirates on Sunday as former target Eberechi Eze ran riot with a hat-trick.
Spurs’ new-look back-five backfired dramatically as they lost more ground on their table-topping rivals.
But it was Tottenham’s stats that made for painful reading as they failed to compete in all areas.
Spurs managed just three shots to Arsenal’s 17 while also boasting just 43 per cent of the ball.
The Gunners controlled the game with 367 passes to Tottenham’s 235.
While Frank’s men committed 15 fouls — four more than the hosts.
They also picked up three yellow cards to Arsenal’s one.
And Spurs even handed the set-piece specialists four corners in a single-sided affair.
However, their creative performance was somehow even worse.

Tottenham posted one of the worst attacking numbers on record as they secured a torrid xG (expected goals) of just 0.07.
Of their 392 games in the Premier League over the past decade, it ranks 391st on the scale.
It’s also the lowest xG of any Premier League game this season, amazingly amounting to just one goal every 17 games.
And in doing so, Spurs managed to break their own record of 0.1 xG in this month’s 1-0 defeat to Chelsea.
Elsewhere, the three shots against Arsenal were Tottenham’s fewest in any of their 12 games this season, and the third-least they’ve had in the last 10 years.
Indeed, Spurs’ touches in Arsenal’s box (4), passes in Arsenal’s half (120) and passes in the final third (52) were also their worst so far this term.
Like the xG and shots stats, they too rank low down the list of performances in the past decade.
Frank’s side now lie 9th in the table with just five wins from 12 matches.
They have won just one of their last five league games and two of their last eight.
Spurs now travel to PSG in the Champions League on Wednesday before a tough run of domestic clashes against Fulham, Newcastle and Brentford.
And the pressure will only increase on Frank if he does not steady the ship before Christmas.
