This match was quite similar to what they did in the previous week because they took the lead and controlled the match in the first half but the second half they became different and this caused problems for Tottenham themselves.
Yes, this is a fact and it happens again. So this defeat against Aston Vila adds to Tottenham's series of defeats in the last 3 matches. In fact they are still above Man United in points so at least they are still in the top 5. But they should stop their losing streak next week. Even though they were outstanding at the start of the season, their performance has decreased further down the road. It will get worse again if nothing changes..
The difference in points is very close now so if in the end results like this continue to be repeated then inevitably Tottenham seems to have to go down even deeper. Losing points in 3 consecutive matches made their position drop dramatically and this is quite a regret actually in my opinion because after all they actually really need points to stay in the top 4 but with defeats again and again without getting even 1 point in the last 3 matches they did this should be more of a concern for Postecoglou to be able to make their performance rise again at this time.
Tottenham's situation is quite terrible now and this is inversely proportional to their excellent start.

For Tottenham's goal back it was difficult to reach and we know that it was deserved but for the second goal it wasn't out of Tottenham's scheme and I see Postecoglou's way of anticipating the attack is still the same.
Tottenham seemed to just wait for the ball without parking the opposing striker which made this unattended and fatal.
This is the third time they've lost in a row and it's obviously not good for them but it's also the same problem from season to season for Tottenhma because we know last season they were like this too.
Tottenham performance is slowly becoming more unstable and one thing that may be difficult for them is to come back to winning ways. Yes, this match was full of emotions for Tottenham because they were able to score an early goal but they failed to defend well so that Aston Villa could turn things around and secure victory in this match. I think both the fans and Postecoglou are certainly very disappointed with the result of today's match because they had a greater chance of getting 3 points but they failed to do so.
So for Aston Villa they have shown their best strength every week and this week they managed to get into the top 4 and this is quite an extraordinary achievement for them. For Tottenham, previously they were very comfortable at the top of the standings, but slowly they fell out of the top 4. 3 consecutive defeats are quite painful for Tottenham because defeat after defeat means they are out of contention for the title this season. However, Tottenham still have a lot of time to recover and there are many matches they can maximize to improve their ranking in the standings table.
The loss of Udogie and Cristian Romero also still leaves a huge space for Tottenham in defence which makes this not too good for them in passing the match that happened because believe it or not even if the midfield and defence are quite good but with the loss of 2 players who are still receiving red card penalties this makes it even more difficult for them to be able to defend especially at crucial times and when they are attacked heavily. Postecoglou still can't replace their 2 defenders although some players continue to be tried but in the end the results are not as good as expected and the 2 red cards in the Chelsea match really have a tremendous domino effect for Tottenham in the current match.
With these consistent results Aston Villa is in the top 4 and only lost 1 of the last 5 matches they did which is of course something very good for them. Unai Emery's cold hands have never failed to bring the club he coached into a dark horse.
