‘Sorry’ De Zerbi won’t panic after Tottenham shambles
Roberto De Zerbi apologized for Tottenham's poor 2-0 defeat against Newcastle, stating he won't panic after the club's worst start to a season in 52 years. The North London team conceded two goals in the second half, with Anthony Elanga scoring in the 62nd minute and Yoane Wissa sealing the loss for Tottenham 10 minutes later. Fans left the stadium early, frustrated by the outcome.
This result followed an embarrassing 3-0 defeat against Brentford in the opening game of the season. De Zerbi's team, which spent over £300 million in the off-season, is currently at the bottom of the table, losing their opening two matches without scoring for the third time in history since 1974-75. Despite these challenges, De Zerbi remains confident in the team's ability to bounce back and regain supporters' trust.
He emphasized the need for improvement on the pitch, particularly in defensive phases, but acknowledged they created many chances to score.
