Tottenham manager Thomas Frank has sent a warning to Tottenham’s board following the recent defeat.
Tottenham suffered a 3-0 defeat at Nottingham Forest on Sunday, their sixth loss in the Premier League this season.
The result leaves them in 11th place with 22 points, six points behind fourth-placed Chelsea.
The fans expressed their displeasure at full time, but the manager sent a stern warning to the fans and the board in the post-match press conference.
Thomas Frank warns Tottenham board
Thomas Frank hasn’t shied away from questions about his future at Spurs. Instead, he warned the Tottenham board against taking the decision to sack him.
The Dane was brought in with a long-term project in mind, with the former Brentford manager reminding those at the top and bottom of the need for patience, insisting that the club’s problems run deeper than the manager and that stability is the only path to success.
Asked about his job, Frank told reporters:
“So they don’t question my thinking because I’ve been very honest about where we are, just like I was very honest about it being a very bad performance. There’s no two sides about it.”
“But also know that changing this will take time. If we don’t take the time, no one can change this. This is not a quick fix.”
Frank took over the Spurs job in the summer following the shock sacking of Ange Postecoglou, who had just ended Tottenham’s long-awaited trophy drought.
He arrived with a huge reputation for his performances at Brentford, but has had a mixed start to his career at Spurs so far.
