Spurs have had more injuries than Arsenal

Freelance injury data analyst Ben Dinnery has produced a table that counter the miss held belief that Tottenham only outplayed Arsenal on their own patch because of injuries to our opponents. 

Unbelievably those excuses were from Tottenham fans who clearly wish Spurs to fail and can't actually see anything good in the club. Ben Dinnery's figures show that since the start of the season Spurs have lost a lot more days to injury than Arsenal have.

Days lost. Injuries occurred since the opening day 2015/16 685 656 597 546 524 520 433 312

Three games against Arsenal, West Ham and Chelsea have seen us clearly as the better side in all three. Building a successful club is a process, it doesn't happen overnight, can these people see there is more than simply black and white, can they not see progress. If they think we are in the same position as last season, that we don't have a squad that can achieve more than their predecessors then you have to seriously question their motives.
