Thomas Frank reflects on his Tottenham journey so far
\nSpeaking to the club\u2019s official channel, Frank admitted that his Tottenham project remains \u201ca work in progress,\u201d but expressed optimism about the future.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt has been super exciting \u2014 a big learning curve,\u201d he said. \u201cYou learn every single day. Overall, I think it has gone well. We\u2019ve done quite well to collect points in both the Premier League and Champions League. We\u2019re not yet where I want us to be, but we\u2019ll get there.\u201d<\/p>\n
Comparing Tottenham to Brentford
\nFrank also discussed the similarities and differences between his new role and his time at Brentford, noting that while the environment is different, his coaching principles remain consistent.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen I walked in here, people asked if it was different to Brentford \u2014 in many ways, no. It\u2019s the same in several respects, just with different people and tactics,\u201d he explained. \u201cThe learning curve comes from understanding reactions and personalities.\u201d<\/p>\n
He emphasised the importance of managing egos and personalities within a squad: \u201cWe all have egos. Some people handle them well, others need a bit more guidance.\u201d<\/p>\n
Unity with the fans
\nFrank also highlighted the impact of Tottenham\u2019s supporters, praising the atmosphere at recent matches and urging continued togetherness.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was really rocking,\u201d he said. \u201cThat positive energy from the fans drives the players, and we need to build on it. It has to be a collaboration \u2014 the more we push each other, the stronger we\u2019ll be. We\u2019ll keep doing everything we can to perform.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
