    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Just to say, it is relief and respite to be able to have some civilised discussions about our current situation. I've noticed a marked atmosphere of 'we're all in this together' on the forum in recent weeks, and I'll say I appreciate the opportunity to be able to express and discuss my personal...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I genuinely believe that if it wasn't for these two players -and particularly our captain- deciding to take the burden of responsibility onto their own shoulders and try to effect dominance, we would be in greater trouble. I'll add Porro to that list too. Against Dortmund for example, I believe...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    The key here is 'under any semi-attacking manager'. In the circumstance, with Biss clearly not making that move, someone needs to or the whole moment dies. I still think there are more ways for that situation to break, and that Xavi moving into that pocket to pick up ball on the half-turn is one...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Answered in a reply just above this. I can see both scenarios creating a lot more than no-one moving. The real coaching 101 is that time and time again, in those moments, we don't have anyone moving. I think the biggest issue with Biss and not Xavi going at that moment is if possession is lost...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    With three CBs I can see that. Equally, I can see a world where Xavi (by design or instinct) moves into that space, brings a marker with him and allows a square ball to Bissouma who would have a lot of space to move into or (if he chose) feed it out wide (I'd rather he went for a channel run...

    How poor is our recruitment that the guy we brought in is now not considered good enough to step up.

    Cristian Romero

    I am being governed by own bias here, because I won't really acknowledge criticisms of Romero in the greater context. He has probably saved Frank's job thrice over, saved our side, and continues to give every last drop for the shirt. Outweighs everything for me. If Frank were half as brave in...

    Milo has a very different, and interesting, take on the pod.

    ***OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Burnlio, Sat Jan 24th, 3pm***

    I don't disagree, but of those players, the following are not deemed good enough by many on here: Bentancur Davies Richy Palhinha Bergvall sits in a neutral area it appears Deki Maddison are both revered Look, I think all are very good players who we miss as options, but just pointing out...

    I agree with your appraisal and stand by my views on him. A good player for sure, but not elite.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    It is hard to offer context with that I admit. Sadly, I think we could freeze-frame many similar situations.
