Tottenham Hotspur defender Eric Dier has laughed off claims that the team are in a crisis, having gone seven matches without a win in all competitions.
Spurs have not won a match since their impressive 2-0 victory over Manchester City on October 2 and are without a goal from open play in their last six outings.
However, Sunday's 1-1 draw with North London rivals Arsenal made it 11 games unbeaten at the start of the Premier League season, and Dier is confident that the team are in a strong position.
"In the week people were talking about Tottenham being in crisis, we haven't lost yet in the Premier League," he told reporters.
"Obviously the Champions League was disappointing but I think it is funny when you're unbeaten in the league and it is a crisis. We did well [against Arsenal[, sometimes it is nice to freshen it up, do something different and new, we enjoyed it and I think it went well.
"The manager does not need to say anything to us, as players we understand and know that on Wednesday we were nowhere near good enough."
Despite their unbeaten record, Spurs sit fifth in the Premier League table, five points adrift of leaders Liverpool.
