The players may not be good enough but Frank has shown nothing to say that he should be trusted in developing the squad.
Kicking it long into nowhere is not the peak performance of this team. Sorry.
Completely agree.
Not sure who can be got right now that has the potential of getting us back to a team that competes closer to the top?
I dont want poch back, guys been in semi retirement since hoovering up a few pots at psg, the hunger he had as a younger manager has probably long gone
If alonso doesn't work out at Madrid id probably choose him tbh.
Those are players doing things they've been instructed to do.Those are players doing things. Granted, Frank keeps playing them but it’s not like he’s overflowing with options.
I get we’re depleted - but there are sides still not as good as what we put out today that play the game a hell of a lot better . . . that’s the concern.
He will. Dribbling and crossing can be taught. Pace can't.Ange for all his faults and there we're many did it his way and the dared and done the Spurs way. This is what I dreaded that Thomas Frank would do ok. This is ok mid table safe nonsense, get it in the box hope for the best. He simply doesn't know how to attack with fluidity. Give him a transfer window and a couple of players he likes and we will rise up the table a bit and do ok. But he isn't a winner and when he's gone we are stuck with ok players he brought in. If Brennan does well at Palace ill be livid.
He had the best window any Spurs gaffer has had in 11 years.I agree he needs to go but can appreciate hes been fucked over.
Sunderland have 6 players at the Africa cup we played half their reserves
He had the best window any Spurs gaffer has had in 11 years.
He chose Palhinha.
He approved the Bentancur extension
He profiles Bergvall as a runner with a long throw
He refuses to develop any central passing combinations.
He ignores the youth players completely.
That's debatable tbh.I get we’re depleted - but there are sides still not as good as what we put out today that play the game a hell of a lot better . . . that’s the concern.
Incredibly boring now. The first half gave me a glimmer of hope, but Frank must’ve been annoyed at how attacking we were.
Season is still salvageable, but we need to act now.
I feel sorry for frank. We've lost our two best attackers in the last 3 years and his three best front players have all been injured since the start of the season. Replaced with uninspiring signings. Sure another manager might have us 1-2 places higher but some of you need to get a grip if you think these players are good enough to turn up week in week out.
