    Rough highlights of Prem teams' transfer windows

    There's a couple of things here that occur to me, and even make me question myself. Villa are bringing in the depth required for the second half of the season. Tried and trusted (ex) players that know the routine. Good pro's but not elite players. lol - I wouldn't want either Tammy or Luiz at...

    25/26 Injury and illness thread

    Interesting that Frank said the half time sub was just physical with Spence having more running in him. He implied that he was giving Porro a break from the red zone. No injury suspected.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    And I genuinely get that. However, my point still remains. In what capacity or role would Harry be doing this to help Frank? Where would he fit in the org chart and how would that play out with all the incumbents? Would it add value or even change a thing? You can probably sense in my questions...

    Abductor injury sustained in November. He's out until March.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I'm always thinking that Harry is the darling of the fans but not for the folks in the game itself. I think he is marmite to them. If he came to Spurs in the second half of the season to lend a helping hand, what exactly does he do? Does he become assistant manager or part of Frank's coaching...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    A lot of water under the bridge since then. In reality, we had 2 points from 8 games and by January we were not looking like relegation. It was such a shame that we didn't get Bellamy, instead of Robbie back. I'm trying to remember who we bought in that Jan window but I do remember a bunch of...

    He's in white obviously. They put him in the wall so he could watch from 10 yards how free kicks are taken properly.

    What's to say these players wouldn't just laugh at the lovable old codger? Why would they take Harry seriously?

    Does anyone believe the Tchouaméni links? I mean, even if we did pay £87m, why would he come to Spurs? We are definitely in the last 5 days of the window

    Mathys Tel

    lol - I was thinking the same. I was also thinking that Muani may not even be at our club come the end of this window. We'd surely have to have a replacement though.

    Teams will always get pulled out of shape. Jut look where Porro was. Xavi was nearest man.

    Cristian Romero

    The other bit I remember is Xavi not putting enough pressure on Walker for that cross. It was half hearted and it made it easy to play the perfect cross. Ironically, Xavi then did the exact same thing later in the game.

    We probably need to bring in another keeper so Kinsky can head out on loan. He's at an age where he needs to work on the weaknesses and get some experience.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I think we may need to stop comparing Frank to Ange in this way. It's obviously natural to do so because he was the last guy in the hot seat. Where it gets divisive is perceptions. My perception of Ange in the public domain was one of ego, backtracking, being spiky and a general arrogance that...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I think we'll see Frank switch tactics back to being more conservative for the big 4 Feb games. We won't be over-committing and will happily take draws. I'm expecting him to last 2 or 3 of those games. I have a feeling he won't be in situ for the NLD.

    ***OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Burnlio, Sat Jan 24th, 3pm***

    You could well be right. Frank is definitely applying his own filters to the squad and inevitably with a short term focus. As an example, you don't mention Scarlett above but I believe there have been more occasions where he should have been used as a 9 with his back to goal. He could have put...

    ***OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Burnlio, Sat Jan 24th, 3pm***

    Only because everyone else had covered that aspect. My view is always that it is very rare that there is one root cause for a single goal. There are usually multiple culprits and Romero plays his part as the baddy in a fair few. So don't be baffled. I think Frank has a decision to make with...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I think you summarise how we all feel. We can't catch a break e.g. hitting the cross bar yesterday. We are also getting a raw deal from the officials across many, many games. They have no doubt cost us points with their incompetence. As you say we're sort of in that shoulda, woulda, coulda mode...

    ***OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Burnlio, Sat Jan 24th, 3pm***

    Solanke is a critical enabler to a system. He was for Ange and he will be for Frank. There's always better out there but he's one of a kind in our squad in my opinion. We will need a competing number 9 as we look beyond Richi and Muani. Be nice to think one of our own young lads can step up...

    Frank Give him time or get rid?

    Yeah, I just don't know what a caretaker does differently though. They can't magically fix the injury crisis so they can't really change the line-up. The players still look like they are on side so will they get a higher application out of them? Will shifting some tactical pieces really make...
