Nuno: Spurs have a lot of problems to fix

-

LONDON: Tottenham manager Nuno Espirito Santo was impressed with his team’s strong firsthalf performanc­e in the 3-0 home defeat by Chelsea but conceded that they have many problems to solve.

“We competed really well, we played good football, we pressed high so we have the awareness that we have a lot of things we need to improve, but the awareness of the first half must stick with us so we can build on it,” Nuno told reporters.

After winning their opening three games of the season to lead the table, Tottenham have suffered back-to-back 3-0 defeats and slipped to seventh.

“We need more time to work together, we have a lot of problems to solve and, mainly, we need to improve,” Nuno added. “We need to find solutions but I’m really positive and confident we’ll get there.”
