Tottenham Hotspur has hit a rough note this season following a great start to their campaign. Notably, the side has failed to bag a win in their last five encounters, creating an unwarranted record. With their luck upside down, one of their former rivals, Mesut Ozil, took to his official handle to take a sly dig at the London-based side.
Ozil, who played for Arsenal during his time in the Premier League, seems to hold a rivalry with the club. Ange Postecoglou’s side was on a great run at the start of their campaign as they positioned themselves at the top of the table. But, a string of injuries and suspensions to their key players has put a rough stop to their momentum.
