Tottenham bottom of the Premier League as £175m splurge fails to stop the rot at 'too fragile' Spurs
Tottenham head into the international break bottom of the Premier League after a 3-2 defeat to Aston Villa, with a net £175m spending spree failing to arrest the slide.

Benched Garnacho already at Villa crossroads as Emery tells winger to 'work, work, train, work'
Alejandro Garnacho has played just 31 minutes for Aston Villa since joining on an initial loan from Chelsea two months ago, and has been an unused substitute for four straight matches. Villa boss Unai Emery has told the Argentina winger to keep working as George Hemmings and Ibrahim Mbaye leapfrog him in the pecking order, with the shadow of Harvey Elliott's failed loan spell hanging over Garnacho's arrangement at Villa Park.
