    I assumed we were after both.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I really like this post. When you break it down, we have a core of players that this or the next manager would just enjoy having. I think it is as many as 15 or 16. Then you have the 4 or 5 other youngsters, not including Gray or Bergval as they're already in the former. Then you go to work on...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Selling Johnson could actually give his captain confidence that we can see the wood from the trees as a club. Romero surely wants to be playing with elite players at Spurs. I'm sure he was as objective as all of us about the move. Tougher for Romero though, as Brennan was a friend in the same...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I really don't know. If he finishes say 15th-17th then I can't see how we'd be able to keep him. If he climbs the table from this point and we have momentum going into the end of the season then I think we should keep him. If we get relegated, where do we find a manager? We have one that...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I do wonder whether the stylistic topic is as prominent with the Spurs leadership team as it is with the fans. My head is currently in a place where I would live without not having the ultimate Spurs football philosophy for a while. I'd happily give it 2 or 3 seasons and see where it takes us...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    It's all about due diligence at this point. Scenario planning for the different outcomes. If Frank fails, it's probably proof that we didn't do it that well last time around. That's the big concern. We mismatched the criteria that we needed as a club to what he could bring. That's as much on us...

    Cristian Romero

    I agree, and social media rules should be written into players contracts in my opinion especially when you do things like accept the captaincy. You can't wear the armband of a half a billion business and just start posting unvetted message to the fan base with an implication that Google...

    Transfer thread

    This resonates with me. It's the quality over quantity argument. What happens if Spurs buy 2 players in a summer window of the quality you talk about. Then in the January window they buy just one, again of this elite quality. Alongside, keep buying these younger players (e.g. Souza) and...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Yep, it becomes a bandwagon with Frank unfortunately, mostly from a very noisy online minority. I still think most fans are putting objective arguments together for or against him though. I certainly feel that on this forum.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    It was THFC that created the Spurs fans mentality. It is also their job to reverse that mentality and build trust. That includes sticking by managers and demonstrating to fans that is the right approach. Our contingent of online fans literally turn on a dime. They turn against on a bad result...

    Luka Vuskovic

    Just a thought but does he have 3 or 4 seasons to pass the club trained critireia though? He's only 18 now. I'm wondering if he has 2 seasons in Germany and 2 seasons under our FA (hopefully with us) then he ticks the right boxes before he is classed as a senior player.

    U23s, Academy and Loanees

    We are clearly playing a numbers game by supplementing our academy ranks with more and more players. Not a big deal for me unless the rules change and we can't have unlimited loans for this age group. All the time we can, I think we'll keep bringing them in, loaning them out and seeing if they...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I think I've posted similar themes to this myself recently. Most players transition seamlessly. I have a feeling it was @Raziel and I chatting about this the other day. If there is a concern, it is that we're not shortlisting managers who fit a criteria that match to our club football...

    Transfer thread

    Nah, it's not all of a sudden. You have to find new homes for those 6 players and that could take an entire summer, if not longer. We might of course offer Palhinha a contract as well, adding one back. Then you take a pretty large group of younger players that were put out on loan this season...

    Transfer thread

    Spurs fans are so used to a high volume of signings that they lose their brick when no transfers happen on a day like today. Unless we were going to get an Adam Wharton level player, I wasn't so bothered. Akliouche was an interesting link and perhaps we've done some groundwork for a summer move...

    Xavi Simons

    I'd actually encourage fans to look at the Xavi heatmap on here - https://www.whoscored.com/matches/1903277/live/england-premier-league-2025-2026-tottenham-manchester-city We bought Xavi as a number 10 with a left bias. A fair few years ago we bought Eriksen, a number 10 with a right side...

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Emirates Marketing Project, Sunday Feb 1 KO - 4.30pm***

    I think I'd rather take the positives out of that performance to be fair. I thought Udogie, Palhinha, Gallagher, Xavi, Dom etc were outstanding. Completely vindicated those fans (e.g. @Robspur12 ) who has talked a lot about the impact of missing players like Solanke all season. It also...

    I've never really understood how my brain works but all I could think of when Dom scored was Eric Morecambe. :tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy:

    As people know, I'm always happy when football stakeholders of all types speak out about the incredibly poor standard of refereeing in Howard Webb's team. It was nice to hear a senior player stepping up, even though ironically he should have had multiple yellows if the ref was following the laws...
