When combining both factors, Spurs are among the Premier League's worst-hit sides this season. Tottenham have had 19 separate injuries in total - the joint-most of any club alongside Arsenal, Chelsea and Leeds - while they have also lost the second-most number of days to injury, behind only Newcastle. Thomas Frank's side are currently missing seven first-team players because of injury and that rises to eight if you add Lucas Bergvall who hobbled off on Tuesday. Included within that eight are Dejan Kulusevski and James Maddison who are both yet to feature this season. While the Dane has understandably come under pressure for a pragmatic style of play, injuries in attack have been a contributing factor.
