Overview
- Travelling fans booed and chanted 'boring, boring Tottenham' after a 0-0 draw at Brentford, and Thomas Frank said he understands and shares their frustration.
- Tottenham sit 12th in the Premier League with only two wins in their past 10 league matches as pressure grows on performances and results.
- Frank highlighted attacking absences — including Dominic Solanke, James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski — plus suspensions and AFCON call-ups as factors behind the lack of cutting edge.
- He pointed to recent defensive gains, noting solid away displays and four clean sheets in six, while admitting the team’s build-up play and decision-making must improve.
- Organisational churn and January transfer scrutiny continue, with the £35m sale of Brennan Johnson and questions around Fabio Paratici’s future as Frank insists any signings must fit a long-term plan.
