    Frank Give him time or get rid?

    Someone else’s opinion on the matter. Former Spurs director Frank Arnesen on does he think Thomas Frank will see out the season at Tottenham... "I can only say that I hope so. I admire him. But he has to win the games. That's how it is, and he knows it. "It's a tough world, but that's what...

    This narrative about a "clear plan" is overly simplistic. If we are attacking and scoring, we have a 'clear plan'. So I'd say a successful attack is more the criteria than clear plan. You can have a clear plan, and players don't have the skills to execute. All good? No. Conte was probably...

    That's the story of our season right. All the developing attackera (sqaud players) are suddenly expected to start and deliver. Most are young guns with potential, not experienced pros. Hence why we are probably looking to sign Robertson, to reballance and have a bit more experience among the...

    Very inconsistent. But he is improving. Had a good game against his former club. Still hugely frustrating I agree. More accurate crosses and we’d have scored in the opening minute for example.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    It's hilarious, isn't it. Especially the lamenting whinge: we missed the chance to get Carrick we moved to slow! Have to step back and see the big picture.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Arteta is a clam but he’s right about the actions in each box being critical. We might be (are) improving our play, but it means nothing if we concede stupid goals and don’t tuck the ball away at the other end. Not scoring enough is the root of the issue. Our defence becomes focused on...

    But we are so negative!

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I’ll agree with that. You can call it a criticism of Frank that he wasn’t managing fans expectations, and trying to galvanise fans. That wasn’t something he was used to. Someone like Redknap would be talking down our chances, managing expectations, highlighting how we’ve lost x amount of...

    Frank Give him time or get rid?

    We are up on last years form and points. No one thinks that is good enough, but can you factor in the lack of attacking talent at any managers disposal? We rely on defenders to score. Will a new manager somehow get second string attackers playing better? If you watch performances Frank has got...

    Frank Give him time or get rid?

    No but we can an informed decision. Yes I agree it is about a fresh face that doesn’t carry all the baggage with fans not backing him. Change for changes sake. And it can work. But it needs to be a big personality to carry it off.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Re-read my post, I actually didn’t. Check it. So it’s about being right. If he’s a good coach he’s a good coach. He’s not Ange: There probably isn’t a way back for Frank, because CL sides are that much stronger our chances of winning the CL are minuscule. But as you say, Frank isn’t a bad...

    Frank Give him time or get rid?

    One question I’d ask of those who clearly see an uplift without Frank: how do you know we will improve and not get worse with a new manager? And which available manager do you think we could attract and would improve us with no preseason? I’d swap Frank for Alonso, but would he come to us...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Haha you watched the game 👏 wow! It’s conspicuous that you didn’t comment on the part of the post that is pertinent to you. Since day one you’ve been anti Frank because you didn’t want the antipodean sacked, now can’t wait to get on here and call for his head. You didn’t think we were the...

    Frank Give him time or get rid?

    If we can get Alonso I’d switch it up. Would love to see Frank come good. And if top calibre mangers aren’t prepared to come to us - who would - then it is better to have Frank than someone like Mason. Whoever’s in charge needs to get our forwards scoring. Frank is working on it. Can he get it...

    Frank Give him time or get rid?

    Our lack of attacking experience is exposed against smaller teams. We get to attack more but don’t have the skill to break them down. We keep committing forward and fall into their trap of leaving ourselves exposed.

    I think that’s too simplistic. He looked bad against wham. But he does offer things. Running with the ball, can finish, tracks back. Just needs to feel in the groove. He has that big guy nonchalant lolloping look that drives fans crazy. But he’s not lazy. And has talent if not confidence.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Frank of course isn’t blameless. I don’t think he is fast enough to get what he wants. He’s a fantastic analyst. And he’ll fix things in the side and in individual players. we can see what he did with Mbueno, Tony, Watkins, maupay, norgard. So he can instil confidence and technique in players...

    Clearly Frank values him as he kept him on. And tbf to Frank Simons was so close to scoring late on.

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

    Btw how does Frank stop players movement. If we score goals then do we have effective ‘patterns of play’? In the first minutes we were creating openings to score. Is that a pattern? If the finish isn’t there it’s not 😆 I thought we dominated. So much so we forgot about defending. We didn’t...
