What Tottenham chiefs plan on doing before making final Thomas Frank decision
The Tottenham Hotspur hierarchy wants to find out one thing before deciding on whether to continue with Thomas Frank.
According to reports, Frank is now losing support among the Tottenham board as Tottenham’s results in the Premier League continue to go from bad to worse.
It was reported on Monday morning that Frank will take charge of Spurs’ Champions League clash on Tuesday, with a decision on his future not expected to be imminent.
This comes despite Tottenham’s 2-1 defeat at home to West Ham, and their lowly 14th position in the Premier League table.

Tottenham want to find out what players think of Thomas Frank
The Sun have now claimed that the Spurs chiefs were weighing up whether to axe Frank before their upcoming Champions League fixture.
Senior figures at Tottenham are thought to be keen on assessing the temperature of the squad to assess if the club’s head coach still has internal support among the players.
However, the report adds that there is a growing sense that the 52-year-old may struggle to restore any authority among the squad.
There is a feeling that the best move for all parties involved would be to bring a swift end to Frank’s miserable seven-month reign at the club.
However, it now appears that the Dane will get at least one more match to turn things around. It remains to be seen what a win, or a heavy defeat for that matter, would do to his job prospects.
La Liga title-winning manager in Spurs’ sights
The Sun name many of the same candidates that other sources have as potential Frank replacements, including Mauricio Pochettino.
The report suggests that the club are considering making an interim appointment to navigate through the rest of the campaign.
However, the publication also adds another name to Tottenham’s managerial shortlist, revealing that former Barcelona boss Xavi is among the coaches in contention to replace the former Brentford boss.
