Tottenham have officially reached the end of their patience with Premier League officiating, lodging a formal written complaint to the Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) regarding a series of "inconsistent" decisions. The London club, currently navigating a turbulent period under interim manager Igor Tudor, have reached out directly to PGMOL chief Howard Webb to express their growing frustration. The correspondence reportedly focuses heavily on a perceived lack of uniformity in how contact inside the penalty area is being officiated, specifically regarding goals that have been either awarded or chalked off in high-stakes moments.

Tottenham have players on their books that “think they’re too good to get relegated”, with the same criticism being levelled at West Ham. Ex-Arsenal and Hammers striker Jeremie Aliadiere has told GOAL what needs to happen in the north and east of London in order for Premier League status to be retained by two seriously underperforming heavyweight outfits.

Tottenham boss Igor Tudor labelled Fulham star Raul Jimenez a "cheat" after seeing his side slump to their second London derby loss in the space of a week. Spurs followed up their 4-1 drubbing at the hands of Arsenal with a 2-1 defeat to Fulham at Craven Cottage on Sunday, and although Tudor acknowledged his players had underperformed again, he was also unhappy with the standard of refereeing.

Tottenham Hotspur’s freefall reached a new low on Sunday afternoon as Igor Tudor’s side slumped to a 2-1 defeat against Fulham at Craven Cottage. The result extends Spurs’ miserable winless run to 10 matches in all competitions, a sequence that has seen the North London club edge closer to the relegation zone. While Richarlison managed to find the net, it was not enough to mask a performance that interim manager Igor Tudor described in scathing terms, directing his ire at both the match officials and his own squad’s application.

Tottenham Hotspur’s interim head coach Igor Tudor has wasted no time in laying down the law in north London, warning his squad that he has zero interest in whether they enjoy his 'shock-and-awe' training methods. The Croatian tactician has demanded his players toughen up as the club faces a genuine battle to avoid a catastrophic relegation from the Premier League.
