  "account": "Tottenham manager Roberto de Zerbi expressed no anger after his team's second loss in two games, leaving them at the bottom of the Premier League. Newcastle defeated Tottenham 2-0, with goals from Anthony Elanga and Yoane Wissa in a 10-minute second-half span. Fans were disappointed, as the team had only three home league wins from their past 23 matches. De Zerbi stated that the team played better than Newcastle until the first goal, and they are working to become a great team. The manager emphasized that there is no panic and that the club has a clear plan. Former players and goalkeepers have criticized Tottenham's recent performances, questioning their ability to compete in the Premier League. The transfer window is closing, and De Zerbi has expressed a desire for additional signings in specific positions.",
  "summary": "Having spent more than £300m in the summer, Tottenham find themselves bottom of the Premier League, without a point or a goal, but boss Roberto de Zerbi remains optimistic.",
