Despite Tottenham's result on Tuesday - and credit to them because they pulled off a performance for their manager - if they lose to Burnley at the weekend then Thomas Frank is right back under the cosh.

That will be the problem moving forward for the Spurs boss - he is always one defeat away from a crisis. And I think the Tottenham board is aware of that.

The club hierarchy isaware of all the difficulties and the problems that need sorting with the squad, but I think it is also aware of the ill feeling towards Frank from the supporters.

That will be a difficult one for him to navigate.
