Ironic Vinai’s statement the day before that disaster yesterday. Zoom out and it’s been disaster for months. To say you have high expectations and then get embarrassed at home AGAIN, puts Vinai in a pickle.

With no statement yet I have to positively believe they are firing him and lining up a plan b before they make the statement.

Dang man, just fire the guy already! This does not make me hopeful going forward that they will get anyone competent to manage the club.

For all that Lange and Frank are into data, never seen a manager more safe with these stats.

Lange and Frank are engaging in cronyism. If they weren't danish friends there is no way he would still be here. Get them BOTH out.

This is the only reason why he’s not sacked yet, furthering the point they both have to go if Lange is backing Frank

Or the delay has to be down to succession planning.

Ornstein weighed in leaning he’s gone. Not if but when.

A big club wouldn’t blink in sacking him. Only Spurs carry this drama

If ENIC wanted to back up their words about higher standards, this wouldn’t be an issue. That tells me that the Danish Duo tangles things. If so, like I said, Lange needs to go since he’s showing his true colors of incompetence

What would it take for this club to ever compete for an EPL crown? It seems so hopeless and there should be real concern about relegation this year.

Times reporting:

quote:

Frank is due to take training on Monday, which will be open to the media for 15 minutes from 2.15pm, and then attend his usual pre-match press conference with a player at 3.30pm. But club sources would not confirm on Sunday evening whether Frank would be fulfilling those duties at their Hotspur Way training ground, and even if the 52-year-old Dane is given the game against Dortmund, his future will still be in doubt.

Tottenham’s next match after that is away to Burnley in the Premier League on Saturday. The lack of clear alternatives to replace Frank mid-season is believed to be part of the club’s dilemma, especially as there is a danger the wrong appointment could push Spurs closer to the relegation zone. They are 14th, ten points above 18th-placed West Ham after the defeat on Saturday, and interim appointments at the club have not gone well in recent seasons.

John Heitinga would be a possible candidate to take over temporarily but the 42-year-old, who has managed Ajax and was an assistant to Arne Slot at Liverpool last season, was only brought in as Frank’s assistant last week. Frank helped choose Heitinga after being impressed by his record working with individual players, including Mohammed Kudus at Ajax.

In terms of permanent replacements, some of the more attractive coaches will not be on the market until the summer. Xabi Alonso is keen on a move to the Premier League but the recently sacked Real Madrid head coach is understood to want a rest and will study any offers from June. Mauricio Pochettino has made no secret of his desire to return to Tottenham but will be in charge of the USA at the World Cup. Andoni Iraola has always tried to see through his coaching contracts and his Bournemouth deal also expires in the summer.
