Getting close to a very, very good starting 11 and the wider squad is looking much stronger. A LB/LCB and a LW and we are genuinely looking dangerous. With improved coaching and management, who knows the limits. It’s certainly not particularly worthy of an angry protest imo.

✅ Secured Thomas Frank ✅ Signed Kudus, Simons, Takai ✅ Extended contracts for Romero and Spence ✅ Turned loans into deals for Danso and Tel ✅ Loaned Palhinha and Muani Is it 10/10 perfect window? No Have other clubs spent ridiculous amounts? Yes Am I happy? Yeah 👍🏻

Anyone else concerned that #Levy was mainly a target for fan frustration. A pantomime villain to be vented at. Yet we still exist in a food chain. We’ll still have transfer disappointments. We’ll lose important games. Vinai or Vivian will just be next. It’s predictably boring.

✅Playing decent football but dropping points gives you confidence in the long term hope of things coming good ❌Playing badly and scraping points feels unsustainable and leaves you waiting eternally for things to click Early days, but Frank has us suffering the latter #BODTOT

I’ve got a rather sinking feeling, a kind of miserable realisation, that we have gone from being a bottom half team, to a mid-table team. That’s about it. Gotta face facts and hope for better, but without world-beating forwards mid-table is probably about right. #THFC #TOTAVL

Do you guys think we have too many players that are almost certainly best described as ‘8s’ in the squad? Not destroyer ‘6s’ like Palhinha. Not ‘10s’ like Maddison/Simmons. Bergvall Gray Bentancur Sarr Bissouma Five players for one position. None established as an 8 yet.

Home form just not good enough. Mistakes and dead patterns are being repeated. Hoofing it long, no triangles through midfield, players looking lonely, unable to build pressure etc. What is the attacking plan?? Hoof it and hope for knockdowns? Our CF is so ineffective. #TOTCHE

That was so poor. I’m all for giving a new manager time, but this was as poor as I’ve seen under Frank. Never laid a glove on them. No creativity. No patterns. We are way off it. If I could see momentum and a sign of ascension, I’d be ok with dropping points, but this was blunt.

This feels systematically wrong. The lack of patterns. The lack of chances. I’m all for making us defensively solid, but I expect more. We look like we lack ideas. I’m genuinely not convinced Frank has the answers. If he does, why wouldn’t we be seeing a shift by now?

Consider just how many players have underperformed so far this season? ❌Richarlison ❌Muani ❌Xavi ❌Vicario ❌Porro ❌Sarr ❌Bergvall ❌Bentancur ❌Tel ❌Odobert ❌Johnson Virtually nothing from them all. I know we are missing players but that’s a lot of pros underperforming

I know the players are angry, getting booed and it’s immediately after the final whistle, but look at THAT dynamic between manager and the players. Van de Ven is dismissive, Spence seems to be signalling disgust. That looks so broken. Players know when shit is broken. #TOTCHE

That blue line along the bottom isn’t the X-axis by the way, it’s the actual Spurs XG from yesterday. I’m now getting quite angry at Frank. I’m looking for a kind of 2016 Conte-esque shift in formation and ideas to turn our team’s fortunes around. Something is broken. #TOTCHE

Spurs have played just FOUR through balls this season, the fewest in the Premier League (and just one at home). By contrast: Arsenal 38 Man City 31 Man Utd 31 Liverpool 30 Aston Villa 28 C Palace 27 The league average is 18.5

Porro having a terrible game. So frustrating. Johnson and Richarlison also letting us down when in the final third. Gotta say I’m not convinced Frank got this right today either. Bentancur shoulda started over Sarr, Udogie over Spence, Odobert over Richarlison. #THFC #TOTUTD

Would this be our strongest starting team if everyone is fit? Additional bench options to include Gray, Davies, Sarr, Takai, Tel. #THFC #COYS
