    Thomas Frank - Former Head Coach

    Yes, i have to say movement off the ball to give the person on the ball options has been woeful for at least two years now imo. Extremely frustrating to watch, but how much is caused by because people making themselves available and then constantly not receiving it (because of the ball going...

    But a left sided FB is paramount

    I think there were rumours of us lining up Ndiaye from Everton back in October. Imo he'd definitely be an upgrade on Johnson in that he is more skillful and stronger. Hopefully once Senegal's AFCON tournament has been completed we can get him in ASAP (maybe Pape can put in a word)

    Thomas Frank - Former Head Coach

    Tbf, it's probably often better to sack a manager in the clsoe season as many managhers would prefer to have a pre-season to set-up their squads , train on preferred tactics etc. In our case, we'd almost certainly have better options and look better to prospective managers as well

    Thomas Frank - Former Head Coach

    Apart from the actual results and tactics on the field, i do have a theory that they (i.e. the board) decided he wasn't the guy long-term during the run-in of the 2023-24 season; the lack of first-team ready-to-go straight away signings in the summer of 2024 imo proves that. We'd just finished...

    Ok, is Frank an upgrade on Ange?

    Thomas Frank - Former Head Coach

    Money AND backing is what Real Madrid and Chelsea, whilst being very trigger happy ALWAYS gives their managers (Chelsea certainly until recently). We have barely done that and when it looked like we would, we half-assed it with Conte.. Again, there's no point talking about success in a role and...

    Thomas Frank - Former Head Coach

    We were in the same situation last year at this time, i.e. you and many others asking why Ange was still in the role and that we could easily get another manager who'd make the team instantly better etc. We then hired one of the very managers you yourself thought wouldn't work here...what does...

    Hmm, Chelsea and Real Madrid. Can you think of one key thing that differentiates them from us?

    Yes, maybe, but as others have said could you not at least use gloves?????

    Thomas Frank - Former Head Coach

    Ok, there is some merit to saying we need better players who can control he ball better, especially up front (see Richarlison's generally poor touch). We have shown some poor ability to pass even a few yards at times, true. But, looking at the players who started yesterday, are we really saying...

    Thomas Frank - Former Head Coach

    No, it isn't. I don't think Frank should be sacked now, there are bigger issues at the club that means we HAVE to give him the season at least. But whilst i've been impressed with our defensive work under Frank, i think our attacking and passing movements going fowards have left a lot to be...

    Thomas Frank - Former Head Coach

    The constant games every 3 days until, what February means it will be a team who can rotate and get in a sync of winning games relatively regularly gets top 4/5. Only those with reletively big squads or settled attacks or defences can be sure of doing that imo. If we could keep a clean sheet...

    Thomas Frank - Former Head Coach

    Fair enough. I guess what i was saying is that sometimes you can see that a manger isn't going to work long-term. The way losses happen, the lack of ability to defend, process the ball forward, always being outwitted in the tight games, London derbies etc I'm not sure Frank will, but we need...

    Ok. Do you think we should have kept Nuno for longer even when Conte was available? Same question re Juande Ramos when he was sacked...
