Thomas Frank - Head Coach

It's all subjective but no for me I did not think we were good last season. My critique came very early on, as early as the leicester game because I was begining to see the same pattern from the previous repeating.

The football early on in season two was very laboured/turgid - we were picking up results and the hope was that the football would get back to what we saw early in the first season, the same hope that we had in the second half of season one. But we never got close to that type of football again. I eventually reached the conclusion that that football wasn't even what we were aiming towards given how different we setup across key positions in the team. Son & Maddison in particular were most noticeable - both key to that early football but clearly at that stage the demands of their role within the setup had not fully sunk in.
 
I don't know why being favourites for the tournament was ever meant to be some sort of 'put down' in regards to the achievement - A big part of the Spurzzzy tag whether it's harsh or not is because we don't deliver when we are expected to and don't deliver on the big occassion. We delivered on both accounts....
We were favourites because Ange had done a great job achieving a 5th place finish in the PL for us to qualify as the highest place team in the best league.
