Tottenham Hotspur remains committed to head coach Thomas Frank despite concerns over results.

Tottenham Hotspur is standing by head coach Thomas Frank, despite a dismal display against Chelsea that has left fans voicing concerns.

The 1-0 home defeat has sparked worries about the team’s threat in the attacking third, with a meager 0.05xG figure from the game.

Fans have been expressing their discontent, with boos ringing around the stadium at full-time and growing noise online. There are even concerns that some players are unhappy with the style of play and tactics.

However, sources close to the club insist that Frank’s position is not under threat. He signed a contract until 2028, and there’s still belief in his vision and principles. The club is aware of the problems and is working to address them.

Tottenham has money to spend in the January transfer window, and signing a new left-sided attacker is a priority.

They may also sign a new centre-forward if the right options come up. There are doubts about Richarlison’s long-term future and suitability, and it’s felt that Son Heung-Min’s quality and experience hasn’t been sufficiently replaced.

Mohammed Kudus has been playing well, but Xavi Simons has come under particular focus for his displays. The club is looking to add new attacking options, as well as an extra centre-back and another goalkeeper for 2026.

Frank needs to sharpen up the team’s style of play and work on plans behind the scenes to make sure there’s a recruitment charge that adds new verve in January.

The team has an immediate chance to make up for the lacklustre loss to Chelsea with back-to-back home games this week.

Tottenham faces Copenhagen in the Champions League on Tuesday and then hosts Manchester United at the weekend. A strong performance in these games could help change the vibe and silence critics.
