    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    LOL - Ange didn't get c£330m because you don't start building a squad on the first day of a manager starting. Ange was more than happy with so many players that were bought before he joined and they were the cornerstone of his EL winning team. Frank picks up this squad in the same way as Ange...

    Ange departs

    It's complete tosh. Ange "privately felt" is an empty statement. Ange should be annoyed at this article because if he didn't feel it then he shouldn't have taken our money. It questions his integrity. He obviously did feel it and definitely spoke like someone who was fired up to help us...

    No mention of Munn on the official website today, but the other 3 are announced.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    10 mins ago in the official website "We can announce the departures of Mile Jedinak, Nick Montgomery and Sergio Raimundo from their roles as Assistant Coaches. We should like to thank them for their contribution to the Club and wish them every success for the future." No mention of Matt Wells...

    I think the dilemma is how the season is laid out. You know within a couple of games your workload for the first half of the season. PL games, CL league format and the league cup. What you never know is your workload in the second half. It could be as low as 19 league games and 1 FA Cup game. It...

    I googled it and got this "Tottenham Hotspur's plans for a hotel near their stadium have been approved and are now slated to be completed in time for UEFA Euro 2028. The hotel will be a 30-storey building, originally planned as 22-storeys but increased in height after gaining approvals. The...

    Contingency planning : we've found our guy

    It's a decent thought process. As you say, there's more to it. I'm hoping it is a build though. An example is that despite his tactical frailties, Ange instilled a belief system in the players. He built a togetherness that I would label win together / lose together. My feeling is that Frank...

    Could it be that the lack of club trained players and the need for a CL squad might work in the favour of a couple of these U21s? Guys like Moore automatically make the B-list. New signings like Vuskovic and Yang haven't been registered with the club for 2 years so have to compete with the...

    It's funny, when talking about the 2019 final not many really talk about the weather. Bedford does as he was there and had to suffer it himself. I think a couple of others have mentioned it. That final was like some of the games we see in the World Cup summers. Pool made us do all the work as...

    PSR and P&L/Balance Sheet are 2 different things though. There are exclusions in PSR that the club absolutely have to include in the annual accounts. From memory, PSR says you can have a £35m loss every year or £105 averaged over 3 years. Who would run their business on that premise?

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I can see why people would feel negativity towards Johnson. I actually enjoyed his goalscoring and felt he deserved more assists than he got. He often put a killer ball in only for no conversion. For me, the Johnson I saw in the EL final is the one I want next season. The one that is pivoting...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    This for me is a really interesting comment. Lots of us were saying that the squad was at a very healthy level and then we went and added 3 more in January. I never really bought into the Ange commentary about his lack of squad depth, especially seeing how other managers were achieving more with...

    I guess the big unknown is whether Sonny will settle for a reduced role. We also don't know how reduced that will be. We can definitely look after him better by managing his workload. If Frank does come in and plays a 4-2-3-1 it could be hard for Sonny to adapt.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I think the one that might benefit is Johnson. The guy is just not a winger. Frank might find him a setup based around 4-2-3-1 so he can get back to that intelligent destructive movement that he had at Forest. He's done well enough popping up in goalscoring positions even from the wide right...

    Son Heung-Min

    I think some data you posted showed the most likely formation to be 4-2-3-1. For me that allows Kulu and Madds to play better in the same team and I also think it may suit Johnson more, especially if the 3 can play laterally. Back in the day Sonny played with Dele and Eriksen in a 4-2-3-1. I'm...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Very interesting data from #Raziel earlier on Frank's go-to formations. I think what we'll see more with Frank is flexible systems where roles aren't necessarily positions. Mbuemo and Wissa don't get 39 goals between them if other players weren't showing defensive discipline and even sacrificing...

    I don't think it was. I've been hanging back with this conversation as you can't win. Most of what I read is shoulda, woulda, coulda on both sides. For me, there were clearly mitigating circumstances. What I would say though it is still eleven vs eleven. In Dec / Jan we were a decimated and...

    Do you think it is perhaps that some fans got the wrong picture in their heads of what the new stadium would bring to our club? Is it the case that some thought it meant we would be at the head of the financial top table and be spending like the billionaires? For me, that was never going to be...

    I actually don't agree. This a multi-year journey. We thought we were starting it with the new stadium in 2019, but then COVID scuppered that for a couple of years. Then we really got going with the new revenue streams including the F1 karting and more and more events at the stadium. We...
