Tottenham's striker shortage exposed in goalless draw at Forest

Tottenham Hotspur's struggle to find a reliable striker despite spending over £300 million on rebuilding their squad was highlighted in a goalless draw against Nottingham Forest on Saturday. The match earned Spurs their first Premier League point of the season, but left them without a goal. In the transfer window, Tottenham missed out on Everton forward Iliman Ndiaye, who signed for Manchester City, while their top scorer Richarlison was left out of the Premier League squad.

Manager Roberto De Zerbi has received support from the market, with a focus on attacking midfielders and wingers, but his team appeared weak up front. Savio and Omar Marmoush, who joined from Manchester City, did not make an impact initially. Dominic Solanke, Tottenham's only out-and-out striker, had a late opportunity after coming on, while Marmoush missed a good chance before halftime.

The club's manager De Zerbi acknowledged the team's lack of proven firepower and expressed confidence that goals would come as they continued their season.
