'A hazardous job predicting what will happen with Spurs' - McNulty
- Published
Over on our live page our chief football writer Phil McNulty has been taking your questions.
Tom asked: Phil, as a Spurs fan I go into the window with the same resigned anxiety as ever, that the club will low-ball offers until the final week of the window in the hope of getting a deal. Given that strategy and the sacking of Ange Postecoglou, I'd have not been surprised if people had tried to warn Thomas Frank off the Spurs job. With all that in mind, do you think the hierarchy changes in the boardroom and other high levels will change anything at the club, or are we doomed to "rebuild" every two years as has been the way since Pochettino was unceremoniously booted?
Phil McNulty: Hello, Tom. There does appear to be change behind the scenes, and Thomas Frank will have surely sought the necessary assurances before leaving Brentford.
There is already talk of a move for Bryan Mbeumo, Frank's former player at Brentford, while Mathys Tel has been signed and sealed.
Will things really change at Spurs? Who knows?
It is a hazardous job predicting what will happen with Spurs. After all, chairman Daniel Levy sacked all the managers who failed to win trophies then also sacked Ange Postecoglou, the one who did.
I do actually think there is the basis of really good squad for Frank to work with, augmented by a couple of quality additions.
