FIGHT HART LANE

Under-pressure Frank will scrap for his job at Spurs in Euro crunch with German giants

- JOHN CROSS

THOMAS FRANK insists he is up for the fight to save his job as Tottenham boss.

The Dane's tenure is hanging by a thread and tonight's Champions League showdown with Borussia Dortmund could be his last game in charge.

The Spurs hierarchy have discussed making a change after just one win in eight games and the fans have turned on the former Brentford boss.

Saturday's home defeat to West Ham appears to have left Frank as a dead man walking.

In addition, he will have a staggering THIRTEEN players missing for the showdown with Dortmund with the club's place in the Champions League still uncertain.

Joao Palhinha is the latest to join the injury list while Micky van de Ven is suspended.

But Frank insists he has not given up and that he can turn the whole situation around. He said: "If your back is against the wall, you fight. And that's what I do. I'm energetic, I fight.

"Being up for the fight is to get up every morning very early, coming in, preparing and doing everything we can to turn every stone to make sure we are well prepared every single time we go on the pitch.
