Total defensive collapse. Tottenham concedes almost more than anyone in the Premier League in the first half

Tottenham's latest match in the 29th round of the Premier League against Crystal Palace once again exposed the main issue plaguing Igor Tudor's side this season.
Details: After conceding in the first half, the Spurs reaffirmed their status as one of the league's most vulnerable teams at the start of matches. The Londoners have already allowed 28 goals in the opening halves of this season's campaign.
This figure puts Tottenham alongside the season's relegation strugglers in terms of first-half defensive performances. Only Burnley (32 conceded) and Wolverhampton are worse off, languishing at the bottom of the table.
It’s worth noting that after the first half, Tottenham are trailing 1-3 and are already down to ten men.
Reminder: Micky van de Ven committed a foul in his own penalty area, gave away a penalty, and left Tottenham a man down.
