Frank has also been at the helm for six friendlies since joining Spurs but has yet to taste the club's 62,850-seater stadium as a home manager. “If I'm honest now, I'm in work mode,” said Frank. “Last planning, training, normal focus has been on that, there are different players but it’s still the same.

“But I know when I step into the stadium I will feel a little (nervous). That'll be special.”
