tottenham head coach Thomas Frank Impressions Club “Legend” is revealed mauricio pochettino He was released after equaling his debut after 13 matches.
Spurs fans rejoiced after a 0-0 draw at Monaco on Wednesday. Champions League,
It took one win from five matches, but Frank’s starting record is now similar to Pochettino’s, who led Tottenham to an unexpected runner-up finish in the Champions League in 2019.
Pochettino won six of his first 13 games in the 2014–15 campaign and lost three before beginning the longest managerial reign by anyone at a north London club in the 21st century.
Frank’s record mirrors that of the popular Argentine coach with six wins and four draws, including Spurs’ Super Cup shoot-out defeat to Paris Saint-Germain, but his team has scored more and conceded fewer goals.
Ahead of Sunday’s trip to Everton, Frank said: “Yeah, it’s not just that example, but I think it’s a good example because obviously Pochettino is a legend here.
“What he created, what he was part of achieving, I think it’s definitely a magic that I saw when I wasn’t here and certainly I was very aware of it when I was offered the job.
“I always looked at him and thought, ‘Wow, what he created, what they created there together was quite unique and quite impressive.’
“I think any success in football history has more or less come from clubs and teams that have had the same head coach or manager for a long period of time.
“Of course, it’s not about me but it also involves key staff members, so they have continuity across key staff members who can be sporting directors.” ceoHe could be an assistant coach and of course a manager or head coach.
“This is almost non-negotiable and of course it is up to me to make sure we make substantial progress along the way, but we all know there will be a bit of up-and-down.
“Then hopefully it will keep getting a little bit better and sometimes unfortunately it will go (down) a little bit like this.
“There are a lot of things but gradually we will get stronger. I have no doubt about that.”
“I’m relatively happy, I would say, with where we are. I always want more, but I know there’s more to come.”
Frank’s cause hasn’t been helped by a growing injury list with the captain Christian Romero (adductor) and Destiny Udogi (knee) have been sidelined to join key players like James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski and Dominic Solanke on the treatment table.
The shape of Frank’s midfield has been a regular source of debate, particularly the need for both Joao Palinha and Rodrigo Bentancur, but the 52-year-old explained his ideal for Tottenham and why physicality is so important.
“In the Premier League, you need physicality, so you need a certain level of physicality in the team because if you don’t have that, you have no chance,” he said.
“If you look at the three big boys now, Liverpool, Arsenal and (Manchester) City, they all have incredible physical ability.
“And then I need to set up a structure that makes sure we play as free-flowing football as possible.”
