LONDON (Reuters) - Assessing the current state of play at Tottenham Hotspur is complicated as the injury-hit north London side prepare for a trip to champions Manchester City this Sunday on the back of three successive Premier League defeats.
In all probability a visit to second-placed City's Etihad Stadium fortress will result in Spurs, who have slipped to fifth spot and are now four points off the pace, losing four league games in a row for the first time since 2004.
