Spurs were effectively beaten within the opening minutes, with Kenny Tete striking in the fourth minute and a costly error from Guglielmo Vicario gifting Harry Wilson a second soon after. Although Mohammed Kudus pulled one back on the hour mark, Tottenham failed to turn their chances into a comeback. Aside from Kudus and Micky van de Ven, few players impressed, prompting loud boos at full-time.<\/p>\n<p>Growing Concerns Over Frank\u2019s Tenure<\/p>\n<p>Spurs have now won only two of their last nine matches in all competitions and have slipped to 10th in the Premier League. Fans are increasingly questioning Frank\u2019s calm touchline manner and believe this defeat could be the final straw. While Daniel Levy\u2019s transfer strategy remains a talking point, much of the anger is directed at Frank for what supporters called a \u201cshambles\u201d of a performance.<\/p>\n<p>January Transfer Plans Uncertain<\/p>\n<p>Football Insider\u2019s Mick Brown reports that Tottenham may halt Frank\u2019s proposed January signings, a move likely to further irritate fans.
