Frenchman is Frank's game changer from the bench

- BY ALASDAIR GOLD

THERE'S a fine line between substitutes working or not.

Three of Thomas Frank's changes - Wilson Odobert, Destiny Udogie and Mathys Tel - all played a direct role in Spurs' turning this match around.

Manager Frank (right) dismantled the left-hand side of his team that had impressed in midweek against Copenhagen and replaced it with an unbalanced one in the right-footed Djed Spence and Richarlison.

The result was an opening 45 minutes in which Spurs had just three touches in the opposition box, their jointfewest in a Premier League home game in the past 10 seasons, and went in 1-0 down after Bryan Mbeumo's goal.

Randal Kolo Muani took an elbow to the jaw which left its mark and led to the Frenchman coming off at halftime.
