Spurs trying to hijack the Fernandes deal lol! It's like a puppy trying to take a bone from a lion

Everyone’s entitled to their own opinion, of course, but I think I’ll trust de Zerbi rather than spurs tacticos

@swspurs Would be gutted to see him go there but it might be worth it to see the inevitable Alex Crook U-turn after making him public enemy no. 1 for so long. Let's see the smug tosser rationalise this one

My thoughts on the Thomas Frank situation:

It isn't Thomas Frank as a person. It’s about the football.

If this is what his Tottenham is going to look like long-term, then I don’t think he should be the manager. Not because of results alone, but because there’s nothing to get behind.

It feels like Frank keeps framing this as a results problem, when for most fans it’s a performance problem. We don’t control games, we don’t progress the ball well, and we rarely look like the better side. Even when we win, it often feels like we’ve escaped rather than imposed ourselves.

The underlying data matches the eye test. We rarely generate better chances than the opposition. We've only really “won” the xG battle in just 8 of our 22 Premier League games this season, and even then it’s often come from chasing games after going behind.

The Dortmund performance showed what’s frustrating. With limited options, we actually played some cohesive football, moved the ball with purpose, and looked brave. And it immediately raises the question: why don’t we see this more often?

People/Vinai keep reaching for the Arteta comparison, but the difference is Arsenal showed clear tactical ideas early, even when results were poor. With Frank, the ideas feel muddled. There’s no consistent structure in possession, no reliable way to progress through the thirds, and far too much reliance on set-pieces to generate threat.

I’m not saying this is an easy job. Injuries matter. The squad needs work. But months in, and we still don’t look solid defensively or effective going forward. And that’s the worrying part.

If you’re going to ask for patience, you have to give people something to believe in. Right now, the numbers, the performances, and the general feel of the team all point in the same direction, and it’s not a good one.

@Tgarratt10 The stat shaggers will be coming for you now, he'll comfortably be one of, if not our best fit CM but because he's not Pirlo they'll throw their toys out the pram
