    I think he certainly was to an extent, until he saw the silverware potential. On the BBC MNC Rory Smith pointed out that he has pulled the old 'cup pragmatist' thing several times in his career which I did not know and found interesting. Yes indeed, the City question would be intriguing!

    Perhaps, in which case our transfer committee needs calling out, because there's a lot of money there. In think Bergvall's injury came at a time when he was about to be trusted by Frank. I am not sure Frank knows what to do with him. Gray? he responded to the joint error between him and Vicario...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    This I absolutely agree with. As you know I felt they hung Ange out to dry from last Jan (we know why) and I agree, the likes of Lange and VV should be doing more here. Frank's way is not going to help him at this club. Again, it isn't Brentford... p.s. I am aware my bias is tipping. I am...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Indeed. I didn't even mention those but agree...when he said the group who can see 'the bigger perspective' it is actually in line with a lot of people who think they are seeing that but don't necessarily measure it against WHAT that 'bigger perspective' is for. If I am going to be written off...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Another presser today where I wish he would be courageous and protective. If people keep bringing up the Archie Gray moment last week, protect him. It's done, he said his piece at the time, why not just say 'guys it's been discussed within the dressing room with everyone, mistakes are a team...

    *** Tottenham Hotspur Vs Forest *** OMT

    I think the main difference is that this season we have replacements for the injured players. You can question the abilities, but what is undeniable are that the options are far, far better than they were for a few months last season. No Deki? Kudus. No Solanke? Richarlison/Muani/Tel. No...

    Classic games - highlights and chat

    I still believe that for 30 minutes we never played better football in this era; some of it was insanely beautiful. The goals were magnificent, well, 2 and 3. That second is one of the best goals I ever saw us score.We survived some serious aggro that day too...a glorious match. What a side...

    All true. What I would add is that the sheer magic of that journey -including the horrendously ugly bits- galvanizes players and staff alike. I will always wonder whether the blend of his style and resolution alongside the players total buy-in alongside their suggestions on modification to...

    Reposting the entry here and responding within it mate... With the current squad members we have to select from I've been thinking that the old Poch 4231 when Dier was CM but with the instruction to drop between the CHs (Jan and toby,) that pushed them wider and the FBs up might just be a...

    What would YOUR priority signing be in the Jan transfer window?

    A priority for those of us who want Tottenham Hotspur to play attractive football!!!!! I don't believe the link BTW.

    Nope. In 2016/17, we had a manager who was putting out a side which were wonderful to watch and only conceded 26 goals in 38 league games. The season before was 35. It can be done and done repeatedly. A good start in this current set-up, IMO, would be to play the CBs higher up the pitch in...

    It's the holiday season! We have found total agreement on something here. Onwards my friend! p.s. I will say that if ever a modern manager deserved a second chance based on what they'd done, it was him. He had us three years ahead of anywhere anyone thought we'd be on the pitch. I still believe...

    I'll take a route too and apologise for my part in this thread's current downfall. BTW, it was a really intertesing intertvierw though, right?
