Thomas Frank insists his job is safe at Tottenham Hotspur despite an 11th league defeat of the season leaving the club five points clear of the relegation zone.
Thomas Frank maintains his position at Tottenham is secure despite a 2-1 home defeat to Newcastle. The loss leaves Spurs just five points above the relegation zone after an eight-match winless run.
Fans expressed their anger with loud boos at the final whistle. Frank responded to the pressure, stating: “I spoke to them [the owners] yesterday, so no,” when asked if his job was at risk.
Internal support for the Dane is reportedly wavering as the club faces a potential relegation scrap. With a twelve-day break before the North London derby against Arsenal, the board is weighing the need for stability against the threat of the drop.
Frank acknowledged the mounting tension, adding: “I understand the frustration. It has been building up a little bit – last season it was similar.”
