Spurs: 10 Incredible Stats You Won't Believe From The AVB Era

5. Along My Merry Way

And now we come to arguably the most impressive stat of all. It's one that ought to get you scratching your head and wonder how Levy could possibly sack Villas-Boas. Ten wins from 13 away games in all competitions means the head coach had success on the road in excess of 75% - 77% to those of you keeping score. Spurs went to inhospitable places in Russia, Moldova and Norway during their Europa League group this term. The opposition may not have been up to much, but three of those ten away day delights were earned in Eastern Europe and Scandinavia during the autumn. Hotspur recorded just two losses under AVB on their travels at Manchester City and Arsenal €“ the latter by the odd goal. You cannot ask for more from your manager than to win three out of every four games away, so the slightly less stunning home form is the reason he's gone.
