TOTTENHAM CRISIS: THOMAS FRANK FACES THE SACK AFTER NINTH PREMIER LEAGUE DEFEAT
Thomas Frank faces the sack at Tottenham after a 2-1 loss to West Ham. Discover why Michael Carrick's United success adds pressure.
Michael, what have you done? Every old Spurs legend—Hoddle, Ardiles, Klinsmann, Ginola—just about everyone except Tim Sherwood, is probably waiting by the phone, half-expecting a call from the club. All of them feel like a better fit for Tottenham than Thomas Frank and his mind-numbing football.
Honestly, after watching what Carrick has sparked at Manchester United, even the most patient Spurs fan is dreaming of a miracle at home. United just outplayed City with all the passion and style we keep saying we want. Meanwhile, Tottenham lost at home again—this time to West Ham, who have their own problems. It’s not just another defeat; it happened the same day United reminded everyone what a little belief and flair can do. You can almost hear the board thinking, “Why not us?”
Frank’s numbers look as bad as they feel. When Spurs lured him from Brentford, the idea was to bring some excitement back—make matchdays fun again after the grind under Postecoglou. But look where we are. Out of both cups. Nine league defeats, and it’s still January. If Frank sticks around, he could even break Big Ange’s record for losses in a season. Fans are already dreading what comes next. When West Ham scored the winner in added time, the groans said it all. Spurs can’t even hold on for a draw these days.
It’s been eleven weeks since that moment when Djed Spence and Micky van de Ven just ignored Frank after the Chelsea loss. Who can blame them? Faking gratitude for fans after rolling over in a derby? No thanks.
Frank’s style—so neat at Brentford—just crashes and burns at Spurs, a club built on the idea that football should be bold and beautiful. Go back to Arthur Rowe in the fifties, pushing and running, setting a standard for English football that still haunts the place. It’s not nostalgia—Spurs fans really want a team that’s fun to watch. Sure, there’s value in Frank’s discipline and organisation, but not when it sucks the joy out of the game.
At Brentford, Frank had a manageable environment. Tottenham is a different beast—a bigger club, bigger expectations. Mid-table isn’t good enough. Frank knows his football, but he’s out of his depth here. His methodical, stripped-back approach just doesn’t fit, no matter how sharp he looks on the touchline.
Look at United. Sticking with a failing coach only dragged things out. Amorim got another year when everyone could see it wasn’t working. Carrick, on the other hand, just put players where they belonged, tightened up the defence, and—most important—gave them a reason to care. He reminded them of what it means to play for a club with real history. That bit of pride brought them together for the derby and made them believe they belonged on the same pitch as City.
Spurs have none of that right now. There’s no sense of unity, no mission. Frank never tapped into what makes this club tick, and now he’s lost the dressing room and the fans. It’s obvious to everyone—the owners included—that it’s time for a change.
SALAH REPLACEMENT FOUND? JARROD BOWEN TIPPED TO SNUB REAL MADRID'S RODRYGO FOR LIVERPOOL
Is Mo Salah leaving? Andy Townsend backs Jarrod Bowen to replace the legend at Liverpool over Real Madrid’s unsettled Rodrygo.
Andy Townsend thinks West Ham’s Jarrod Bowen would be a way better pick to replace Mohamed Salah than Rodrygo from Real Madrid, and he’s sure Bowen would jump at the chance. Last year, Liverpool looked at Rodrygo after Luis Díaz left for Bayern Munich. Arsenal and Man City showed interest, too.
For a while, it seemed Rodrygo might land in the Premier League. He wasn’t getting much time on the pitch with Xabi Alonso in charge at Real. But after the summer window closed, Rodrygo made it clear he wanted to stick around in Madrid.
Still, Townsend sees Bowen as the more realistic option. With Salah possibly nearing the end of his Liverpool run, Arne Slot is already shaping a squad that can chase trophies in the coming years.
Talking to BOYLE Sports, Townsend put it simply: “Who can Liverpool bring in to take Salah’s place next season? I think Jarrod Bowen would do very well for Liverpool.
“I don’t really get the Rodrygo rumours. Sure, if you play for Real Madrid, you’ve got serious talent, but I’ve never seen him as a Galactico.
“Bowen would absolutely go to Liverpool and be a real danger for them on the right. They’d have Cody Gakpo, Hugo Ekitike, and Jarrod Bowen.
“They give you pace, energy, goals, and a real end product. That’s a front line with everything you want.
Liverpool has to look at Bowen because, honestly, I can’t see Salah staying past this summer. Whatever’s going on at Anfield, it’s knocked some of the wind out of Mo’s sails.
“Maybe it’s a relationship thing; maybe it’s just age. Whatever it is, he’s not going to keep up those numbers forever.
“It looks like Mo’s running out of steam, and there’s no shame in that. It’s football. It happens.
“His best days are behind him, and they need to move on.”
Salah’s been Liverpool’s main man for eight seasons straight, always the top scorer, but this year he’s slowed down a bit.
He’s only scored four Premier League goals in 16 games, plus two more in seven Champions League matches. That’s a noticeable drop from what he usually delivers.
Since joining from Roma in June 2017, Salah has racked up 252 goals in 428 games for Liverpool, putting himself among the club’s all-time legends.
TRANSFER BATTLE: VILLA AND LIVERPOOL PLOT SUMMER MOVES FOR TOTTENHAM STAR LUCAS BERGVALL
Lucas Bergvall is the subject of a massive transfer tug-of-war! Discover why Villa and Liverpool are targeting the Spurs star.
Aston Villa are still watching Lucas Bergvall pretty closely and might even try to tempt Tottenham this summer if the chance comes up. Liverpool is lurking, too, ready to make things interesting.
Tottenham’s season has been rough. They brought in Igor Tudor to stop the slide after Thomas Frank’s time in charge fell apart and dragged them towards the bottom of the table.
Villa have liked Bergvall for a while now. They’ve tracked him for some time and even asked about him in January when they missed out on Conor Gallagher. Tottenham wouldn’t let him go, though.
Inside Spurs, people see Bergvall, who’s only 20, as one of their best long-term prospects. They’ve made it clear he’s not for sale. Still, a lot rides on how Tottenham finish the season and who they choose as their next manager. If things stay shaky at the club, other teams might sense an opening.
Villa think they have something to offer: European football, a team that’s clearly on the up, and the chance to be a big part of something. They know prying Bergvall away won’t be easy, but they believe their project could turn his head if Spurs keep struggling.
Liverpool is in the mix, too. They’re tracking young midfielders across Europe, and Bergvall’s on their radar. Their interest could make things even trickier for Villa if Tottenham start to waver.
Tottenham rate Bergvall as one of the best young players around and would slap a big price tag on him to scare off bidders. But after a messy run of results, the club faces more financial pressure, and there’s a feeling that nothing is truly off-limits if a huge offer comes in.
Bergvall has already played 16 times for Spurs this season, scoring once and setting up four more. He’s a Swedish international with six caps, but he hasn’t featured since January because of an ankle injury that needed surgery. He’s expected to be out for another six weeks.
Even with the injury, Villa and Liverpool are undeterred. Both clubs see Bergvall as a top young talent worth chasing.
