15th place highlights a crucial area Spurs must improve
To continue our look into Tottenham and how we have fared in certain facets of the game I have next taken a look at passing into the box until the halfway stage of the season. To score goals a team needs to shoot from as close as possible to maximise their scoring probability.
There is a correlation between range of shot and goals scored. The table shows in percentage terms the success ratio of teams passing into the box. It should be remembered when viewing these figures that a pass into the box does not necessarily mean a strike at goal. Our figures are terrible, way below the league average.

The second table shows the opposition success rate playing the ball into the box. Do we fare any better?
