HOW TO RUN A TOP CLUB IN ENGLAND AGROUND? Ask Tottenham!
In the latest episode of Postimees' football podcast, hosts discussed the struggles of English clubs, particularly Tottenham's poor performance and subsequent firing of coach Thomas Frank.
In the 66th episode of the Postimees football podcast ‘KESKTORMAJAD,’ hosts delved into the issues faced by English football clubs, particularly focusing on Tottenham Hotspur. The discussion highlighted the alarming decline of Tottenham this season, where they have managed to secure just one win in their last eleven Premier League matches, currently placing them 16th out of 20 teams. This poor form has raised concerns about the club's management and direction, especially given its previous status as one of the top teams in English football just a few seasons ago.
The podcast emphasized the club's decision to part ways with coach Thomas Frank due to the team's dismal performance. Observations were made about how despite bringing in a new coach, the underlying problems remained unaddressed. Host Marko Susi pointed out the harsh statistics illustrating the team's struggles, blaming the club’s construction which seemed unfit for the demanding conditions of English football. The last match against Newcastle was particularly disastrous for Frank, as the team faced significant injury issues impacting their performance.
This discussion offers valuable insight into the pressures faced by managers in Premier League football, especially at clubs with a history of success like Tottenham. The analysis raises critical questions about club management, expectations, and the rapid changes in coaching staff as clubs attempt to reclaim their competitive edge amidst intense competition in the league.
