    Did anyone see the post-match interview with Gabriel and Jesus? 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳

    (Brennan) Johnson Again Olé Olé!

    I have always wanted to see if he could learn/play a 'second striker' role off the CF. Ghost runner through the channels. I suppose that would require a passer and a style we are not interested in...

    Key moment of that match too. They go to 10 there and it is game on.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    It's funny you mention Brazil. I loved their 82 side. I saw every Brazil game in 1994 WC Finals bar the SF, and knew early on they'd be very hard to beat because of Dunga and to an extent Mauro Silva. Dunga was the player they needed, and he allowed a 'less than typical' Brazil game to be far...

    So it feels the same to you?

    Richarlison

    Well we can play Odobert on the left and Muani in the middle if that's the case. That, BTW, wouldn't be 'Peter-Paul' and in fact it would be less so than playing Muani on the left and leaving Odobert on the bench (remember, I still think Odobert needs work but he is more natural there than...

    ...in which case the scouting didn't even get the right side of the pitch!

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Sadly it does seem as though many here read what I'm writing and leap to the assumption that I don't believe in adapting/tweaking when necessary, etc. I don't even know if it is worth explaining TBH, however needless to say, having watched, played, and (amateur level) coached football for the...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    1. I hope you're right. It is the only question which needs answering IMO. 2. With Pep and Klopp you have chosen two managers with such enormous personalities and definitive styles. I think you are too quick to label me as someone who does not believe in degrees of pragmatism. Not the case...

    Richarlison

    But we are very poor at getting the ball to our CF. He can’t touch the ball in the box if he isn’t getting it there. Plus, he has never been a hold-up striker. FWIW, the way we played against Palace left him having to do significant defensive work, which he did very well. He assisted Gray...

    In fairness, Muani is 27 and has played in a World Cup Final, so he is considerably further down the road. I very much had the same views of Odobert earlier this season, but I think in the last 2-3 months, whenever he has played he has shown significantly more verve and confidence.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I will boldly predict that if somehow Thomas’ Tottenham find themselves in the last 8 of the CL, yet 15th or 16th in the PL but with a 15 point cushion between us and the bottom three, absolutely no-one would have a single issue with trying the same thing twice, especially with a manager that...

    *** Official Film Thread ***

    Absolutely agree. An OK, fun film but absolutely not a masterpiece. I thought it was wildly overrated. PTA films generally labour to impress as he always appears to like himself a little too much without either the clear identity or raw cajones to make it count (i,e. Tarrantino, who achieves on...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Frank is great for people who like reactive, pragmatic coaches. He keeps on saying (when asked about style and approach) that no two games are the same, suggesting he has a different approach for each game tailored to what he expects to be dealing with. If you like proactive coaches, those who...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I suppose it’s how modern life works. Comparisons all the time. No two situations share all the same charactaristics, so it all becomes an ‘academic ramble’. We’re all guilty from time to time, me most certainly included!

    I manage some cardiac related stuff myself, and I can say from my experience that getting the anxiety under control is absolutely vital. You are currently doing all you can, giving it your very best, and that is all you can do. I, too, have kids around those ages (33 and 20) so I get it, and...
