HOW ARCHIE GRAY’S CLOSE-RANGE HEADER DISMANTLED CRYSTAL PALACE’S DEFENSE
Archie Gray’s first professional goal secured a 1-0 win for Tottenham over Crystal Palace, easing the pressure on Thomas Frank.
Archie Gray scored, boosting Tottenham's spirits after a year of ups and downs, in a game that mirrored their confusing season.
They didn't show their usual spark and spent much of the game defending against Crystal Palace's attacks.
Still, Spurs showed grit and threatened from set pieces and fast breaks.
They beat Palace at their own game, even with two goals disallowed for close offsides and a late shot hitting the post when Palace was pushing for a tie.
Thomas Frank's team held on, proving that sometimes, winning is all that matters.
This win gives Frank some breathing room, moving his team to mid-table. Every win buys him more time to shape Spurs the way he wants, building a team with a bit more flair.
Archie Gray's goal eased the pressure on Thomas Frank as Tottenham edged out Crystal Palace.
The young Tottenham star scored his first pro goal, securing a 1-0 away victory.
The good things? Gray's first Spurs goal, a clean sheet, a strong defense, and a smart late-game move by the coach.
They had some luck, and Palace will regret the chances they missed.
Frank strengthened the team by bringing on Joao Palhinha to control the midfield after Lucas Brgvall got hurt, switching to a back three to seal the win.
They finished strong, with Wilson Odobert threatening on the break.
They'll try to build on this as they finish 2025, a year they won the Europa League but lost 20 Premier League games.
This performance won't convince those who doubt Frank is the right guy for the job. It's easier to win like this away from home in front of a smaller crowd than at home with 60,000 fans.
There are signs that Frank is figuring out his best team for 2026. The only changes from the last game were to replace Xavi Simons and Cristian Romero, who were suspended after getting red cards against Liverpool.
Kevin Danso stepped in at the back and played well, despite an early scare when he tripped Justin Devenny, and the crowd wanted a penalty. But there was enough defensive cover to cause the ref to judge it as not a clear scoring opportunity.
Pressure's been building on Frank after Tottenham's slow start to the season.
Richarlison, back in the starting lineup, did his pigeon dance in the 17th minute, thinking he'd scored. But it was called back for an offside against Bergvall earlier in the play.
The VAR decision lifted Palace and their fans, quieting Spurs down.
Playing at Selhurst Park is never easy, even though Palace has been better away lately and had a tough run of four games in 10 days before Christmas.
They're learning to handle the pressure of success on their schedule and the toll it takes on their thin squad. They have skill and are well-organized, dominating for 20 minutes as Spurs lost control of the midfield.
Jean-Philippe Mateta missed a shot wide and headed one high after Maxence Lacroix headed a cross back across the goal.
Guglielmo Vicario played it safe with the ball at his feet and made key saves to deny Devenny and Wharton during this period.
Will Hughes also came close before Frank's team responded, taking the lead from a corner they won on a counterattack.
The goal probably made Spurs' coach extremely happy. Great delivery by Pedro Porro, followed by three headers in the box.
Randal Kolo Muani headed it back across the goal, Richarlison helped it on, and Gray finished it off with a close-range header.
It was his first goal for Spurs and his first in 112 senior games for the 19-year-old, who came over from Leeds in 2024.
Palace missed more chances.
Nathaniel Clyne and Devenny messed up a great chance at the far post. Clyne headed a cross by Yeremy Pino back inside, but Devenny's first touch pushed him away from the open net, and his shot went over.
Maxence Lacroix headed wide when he should have scored, and Marc Guehi headed a corner over the net.
Spurs couldn't hold onto the ball until Palhinha came on and gave them more control.
Richarlison had a second goal called back for a very close offside before he scored off a cross by Kudus, after a nice pass by Gray.
Odobert hit the post from 20 yards out, and Dean Henderson saved Bentancur's shot in stoppage time.
BRUNO SALTOR OFFICIALLY JOINS TOTTENHAM AS ASSISTANT COACH FOR THE NORTH LONDON DERBY
Tottenham appoints Bruno Saltor! Discover the new coaching team under Igor Tudor and the departures following Thomas Frank's exit.
Tottenham Hotspur just shook up their coaching staff, bringing in Bruno Saltor, a guy who’s worked with Chelsea and West Ham in the past.
Saltor’s stepping in alongside interim boss Igor Tudor until the season wraps up. Spurs let go of Thomas Frank earlier this month, and, like Manchester United, they’ve decided to go with a temporary setup for now and figure out the bigger picture in the summer.
Tudor, who’s managed clubs like Marseille, Lazio, and Juventus, is set to take charge for the first time this weekend in the North London derby against Arsenal. Saltor will be in the dugout for his first Spurs match, too.
If you’ve followed Saltor’s career, you might know he’s often worked with Graham Potter. That’s how he ended up at both Chelsea and West Ham. When Potter left Chelsea in 2023, Saltor took over as interim head coach. His one match in charge ended in a 0-0 draw with Liverpool. Frank Lampard replaced him soon after, and Saltor stayed on as part of the coaching staff until Mauricio Pochettino arrived, at which point he moved on. He later reunited with Potter at West Ham but left when Potter did in September.
Tottenham’s official statement confirmed the news: “Following the arrival of Igor Tudor as Head Coach until the end of the season, we can now confirm the appointment of three additional coaches to our Men’s First Team coaching staff. We welcome Bruno Saltor as Igor's assistant coach." Born in El Masnou, Spain, Saltor started his playing career in his home country before joining Brighton in 2012. He made 235 appearances there over seven years, then moved into coaching with the Seagulls after retiring in 2019. Since then, he’s picked up experience at Chelsea and West Ham.
Along with Saltor’s appointment, Spurs also announced some departures. Justin Cochrane, John Heitinga, and Chris Haslam are all leaving the coaching staff after Frank’s exit. The club thanked them for their efforts and wished them well.
GLASNER OUT? CRYSTAL PALACE CONSIDERING IMMEDIATE EXIT FOR BOSS AFTER DISMAL EUROPEAN DRAW
Oliver Glasner’s exit is imminent! Discover why Robbie Keane has emerged as the favorite to lead Crystal Palace out of crisis.
Oliver Glasner was supposed to stick around at Crystal Palace until the end of the season. That was the plan, anyway. But after another rough run of results, his exit could come a lot sooner.
Thursday night in Bosnia should’ve been nothing special, just a routine first leg against a team Palace should handle easily, with the real test back at Selhurst Park next week. Instead, a 1-1 draw against Zrinjski Mostar turned into another mess in a season that’s gotten uglier by the week for Glasner and Palace.
The travelling fans didn’t hide how they felt.
Palace have only managed one win in their last 15 games. That’s not a blip; it’s a full-on collapse, and it looks like Glasner’s time might be up even faster than everyone thought.
People at the top of the club have started openly asking if letting Glasner finish out his contract is actually hurting more than helping. He said back in January that he’d leave when his deal was up in the summer, but with results falling off a cliff and morale at rock bottom, those discussions have picked up speed.
Word is, Palace have already started looking for Glasner’s replacement, planning for a summer hire. But now, it looks like they might bring in his successor right away.
One name has shot straight to the top of the list: Robbie Keane.
TalkSPORT’s Alex Crook says Palace are considering Keane as a short-term fix if Glasner goes before the season ends. Keane’s reputation has soared lately. He won the Israeli Premier League with Maccabi Tel Aviv, then took the Hungarian league title in his first season at Ferencváros.
His win rate at Maccabi was over 73 per cent. He’s also done time as an assistant coach at Leeds and Middlesbrough. People who’ve played for him, like Ireland’s Callum O’Dowda, rave about him. O’Dowda said, “As soon as he opens his mouth, you want to listen. It’s phenomenal, really. On the coaching side,e he has been good.”
For now, Keane is still in charge at Ferencvaros, who are still in the Europa League, so prying him away won’t be simple.
Palace sit 13th in the Premier League, eight points clear of the relegation zone, but that gap feels less safe with every week they fail to win.
Tottenham even considered Keane as an interim manager before they went with Igor Tudor.
