Tottenham\u2019s bright early-season form under Thomas Frank has faded quickly, and Jamie O\u2019Hara hasn\u2019t minced words about their troubling downturn. After being inside the top five in August, Spurs have suffered a steep drop-off in recent weeks and now find themselves sliding toward the lower half of the table. Their latest disappointment\u2014a 2-1 defeat to Fulham\u2014has only increased the pressure on Frank, with home fans once again voicing their frustration at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.<\/p>\n
Jamie O\u2019Hara questions Spurs\u2019 worrying slide<\/p>\n
O\u2019Hara offered a harsh assessment of Tottenham\u2019s current state, arguing that both the manager and the squad are failing to meet expectations. He suggested that the scale of the job might be proving too much for Frank, who is in charge of a top-six side for the first time.
\nHe said: \u201cI\u2019m starting to think the role is too big for Thomas Frank. Recruitment has been terrible\u2014these players aren\u2019t up to the required level. Most of them are way off it. It\u2019s a big issue.\u201d<\/p>\n
January window approaching<\/p>\n
With the winter transfer window on the horizon, Spurs have significant choices to make. Reports indicate the club is hoping to reinforce several areas, including striker and the wings. Antoine Semenyo is still heavily linked, and there are also rumours of a new goalkeeper coming in.<\/p>\n
If Tottenham hope to revive their season and compete near the top again, they\u2019ll need to focus on signing established, top-quality players rather than developing prospects who are still learning the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
