Spurs go into back-to-back home games against Fulham and Leeds on the back of a 1-1 draw away to Wolves. The result extended the North London club's winless run to four matches, severely denting their title hopes and manager Jose Mourinho questioned his side's ambition in the aftermath.
"I am frustrated with the result, we had control of the game, we had 89 minutes to score more goals and we didn't," Mourinho said after his side conceded a late equaliser. "It's not just about not scoring but also not being dangerous and ambitious and for me that's the problem.
"But I don't think it is very, very obvious to go in that direction and not to go in other directions.
"The other direction for me is you score a goal in the first minute, you have 89 minutes to score more goals and we didn't.
"It's disappointing (to concede as they did) and tomorrow we are going to have a similar meeting of other meetings we've had and we're going to practise the same thing we practised that we have after other situations."
Leeds bounced back from a heavy defeat to Manchester United with a 1-0 win at home to Burnley as they now prepare for successive away games to West Brom and Spurs respectively.

This will be the first league meeting between the two clubs since the 2003-04 season. Spurs took six points off Leeds that season, winning 2-1 at home before a 1-0 win at Elland Road courtesy of a solitary strike from Robbie Keane.
