There is mounting pressure on Thomas Frank as Tottenham Hotspur’s recent performances continue to spark reactions from fans.
Since their defeat to Chelsea, Tottenham have managed just three wins, with notable losses to Arsenal, Fulham, and Nottingham Forest.
The latest setback, a 3-0 thrashing at the hands of Nottingham Forest, has only fueled the growing calls for Frank’s dismissal. Fans are questioning whether the team is truly improving under Frank’s guidance, with many citing the lack of cohesion and inconsistent performances.
Despite the mounting pressure, Tottenham’s decision-makers remain committed to Frank, at least for the time being.
The club is keen to give him time to build a squad aligned with his vision, mirroring the approach Arsenal took with Mikel Arteta. However, sources suggest that this support may not be unconditional, with expectations of progress and improvement.
Tottenham intends to add attacking quality in the January transfer window, with targets including Kenan Yildiz, Rodrygo, and Ademola Lookman. The club is also exploring options for a goalkeeper, left-sided defender, combative midfielder, and proven goalscorer.
Frank has acknowledged the team’s struggles, emphasizing that turning things around won’t be a “quick fix”. He stressed the need for patience and time to implement his vision, saying, “I can’t see why not. I think it’s pretty evident that if no one gets the time, no one can turn this around.”
The next two games, against Liverpool and Crystal Palace, will be crucial for Frank and Spurs. Failure to deliver improved performances could lead to renewed calls for Frank’s dismissal, with Oliver Glasner, Palace’s manager, emerging as a potential replacement.
