It is grim reading for Spurs fans at the final whistle this afternoon, as the Tottenham top four odds market takes another hit following their last gasp 3-2 defeat at home to Bournemouth.
Second-half substitute Arnaut Danjuma looked as if he would be the hero on the day as the Nigerian whipped a finish into the near bottom corner with two minutes to play.
However, a misjudgement from Cristian Romero allowed Dominic Solanke to nod the ball down for the match-winner Dango Ouattara, who slotted a cool finish past Hugo Lloris to secure one of the most dramatic smash-and-grab victories of the season.
It leaves a manager-less, fragmented Tottenham side three points off Champions League qualification, with Newcastle and Manchester United above them, level on points with 56 but with one and two games in hand respectively.
After a month of turbulence that has seen former manager Antonio Conte leave the club in a fiery exit, coupled with Director of Football Fabio Paratici stepping down from his role after allegations of false accounting at Juventus, this latest defeat is likely to leave the fanbase increasingly deflated.
Spurs have now failed to win in four of their previous six, with all of those fixtures featuring opponents fighting for survival. It leaves their top four odds at 13/5, with Newcastle and Man United now primed for European football despite the former being put to the sword by Aston Villa earlier in the day.
After qualifying for Europe’s elite competition for the first time in two seasons, but it now looks like a genuine possibility that Daniel Levy and the club will miss out on a sizeable cash injection.
