What happened. Tottenham lost 3-2 at home to Aston Villa, with two late consolations. De Zerbi criticised his team's mentality, the physical condition of his players, and said substitute Mohammed Kudus disrupted the balance of the team.

Tottenham headed into the international break with just two points and no league win.
De Zerbi went straight down the tunnel at full time and faced boos again.
He said: 'We can't lose the game in this way.'

Tottenham enter the three-week international break without a Premier League victory, leaving De Zerbi under pressure to fix mentality and fitness issues.
