WOE WHEN THE SPURS

Frank is really starting to feel the heat after keeper howler adds to his agony

THE biggest problem for Thomas Frank at this point is Tottenham have not improved under his watch.

Spurs are 12th in the Premier League with 18 points, having scored 21 goals and conceded 16 after 13 matches.

Last season at this stage they had scored seven more goals, let in two fewer and had two more points to their name in seventh spot.

When a club makes a managerial change, it is because they believe they can improve what they have. Frank has a history of starting very slowly at both Brentford and Brondby and his solid early weeks at Tottenham may have only briefly postponed that this time around.

The north London club will not give him the time those smaller clubs did though, especially when it is very difficult to watch Tottenham right now.
