    ****Tottenham Hotspur v BVB********* OMT Official

    And 108 minutes in total this season. If Solanke breaks down with an injury it will be a huge blow, particularly with Richarlison out. Obviously we can't know what the risk of that is, maybe the medical department are saying that he's absolutely fine to play now and has been sufficiently slowly...

    ****Tottenham Hotspur v BVB********* OMT Official

    Think in some ways it's a tough decision either way. In isolation obviously Solanke is a better, more experienced and more important player to us (accepting that we essentially haven't seen him play under Frank so difficult to be sure). The overall treatment of Tel I guess is one source of...

    Mathys Tel

    Have had some concerns about him being really focused on the next game and not rotating much when under pressure. Potentially contributing to the injuries of Kudus and Bentancur as well as the standard fatigue drop in form from Porro. Have some even bigger concerns about these things for...

    Mathys Tel

    Just as happily as he subbed Tel instead of Muani against West Ham? (Surely by then knowing that Tel would be dropped back out from the CL squad? Just as happily as he's played Muani almost twice as much in the league as Tel? Agreed that it was probably a difficult decision either way.

    ****Tottenham Hotspur v BVB********* OMT Official

    "Anything" can happen in a single game of football. Being the underdogs should suit us. Maybe we can see a throwback to last season in the EL with a backs to the wall performance. Curious to see how the players respond. Certainly a feeling amongst many of us fans that Frank is a dead man...

    Absolutely not. But it's not an option on the table I think, can't see him walking away prey World Cup.

    ****Tottenham Hotspur v BVB********* OMT Official

    We have also gotten the first goal in games. Like against Bournemouth and Sunderland more recently. Obviously scoring first in this game would be good. But the moaning isn't a result of the players not getting their fingers out and scoring.

    ****Tottenham Hotspur v BVB********* OMT Official

    Agreed. Similar concern about Solanke and swapping him in for Tel. Solanke will be really important to us and could be a really good addition to this match. But with very few options available will we be able to keep integrating him carefully in a game like this. Some big gambles to take.

    Conor Gallagher

    Got forward more in the second half, when we actually tried to attack and play with more "risk". Showed a bit of what he can do if he's given that freedom to roam and move. Think the game swung mostly because of game state, we had to attack, they were happy to defend. But Gallagher was also...

    Have had my issues with the flip flopping at the club. Right now I'm hoping we flip, or flop, or whichever it is. Someone with a history of entertaining attacking football, someone with successful experience outside of managing a single really well run club.

    Mathys Tel

    So Tel has 3 goals in 527 minutes in the league, a goal every 175 minutes. Can't be bothered doing stats for this time last year, but across last season Son had 7 goals in 2118 league minutes. A goal every 302 minutes. Tel has zero assists this season. Son had 9 in the league last season so...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Good point. Could end up in a "anyone would be better" scenario. But on the other side clarity and a quick decision could be good for the players too, not just PR and the fans. Can't help hoping that we get a decision soon, the only way we get a decision in public obviously being the sacking of...

    Frank Give him time or get rid?

    Remember his options at CB? Emerson Royal, Davies, then Dragusin (who seemed a rather poor fit to his style). Then Danso in the last 6 months. I'm not saying Ange was the messiah and would have made us world beaters. For sure there were big issues. But I think it's worth noting that how well...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    The club taking some days to figure out a big decision like this with the amount of changes that have been happening behind the scenes in the last 6 months really is a non issue. That's assuming they're even about to make a decision calling time on Frank.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Fully agreed. As long as he's in the job the now super unlikely turnaround could potentially in theory maybe happen. But even if they've made their mind up he's gone and it's just a matter of timing get a solution sorted before sacking him. Harsh on him to be a dead man walking if that's the...

    Frank Give him time or get rid?

    Also a lot easier to put a well drilled defence together with your better defenders available. The difference in goals conceded under Ange between when Romero and VdV played and not was rather large. Only for the last 6 months he had Danso available. Remember Emerson, Gray, Davies etc at CB...

    Frank Give him time or get rid?

    I think it's very possible the camel's back is already broken. A lot of people have been factoring in the depleted squad, and will continue to. Tuesday will probably be the first time (and hopefully only time) Frank will have to deal with squad depletion on the level Ange had to deal with for...

    Frank Give him time or get rid?

    Sorry to use your post as a jumping off point to head in a different direction. Really agree with you on your point well made. 30 games, 34 points... Currently we're on 27 points after 22 games. So we need another 7 points from the next 8 games to be on equal points to last season after 30...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    We're all irrational, both as football fans and human beings. That will include people more supportive of Ange and more critical of him. But if support for Frank comes down to not enough backing from the fans that liked Ange, or that our league results are somewhat improved from the league...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Very difficult to see how this can be turned around for Frank. Not impossible obviously, but it gets harder for every disappointing result and the fixture list will get really tough soon enough.
