What tactics and formations would Thomas Frank play at Spurs? Here’s what we know

Thomas Frank is very close to be reaching agreements with Spurs for the new managerial role after Ange Postecoglou was sacked a few days back.

Tottenham Hotspur are closing in on the appointment of Thomas Frank as their new head coach, according to reports, with negotiations with Brentford now in advanced stages. The Danish tactician, known for his tactical adaptability and disciplined structure at Brentford, is expected to bring a fresh identity to Spurs.

At Brentford, Frank predominantly used a 3-5-2 or 3-4-3 formation, offering defensive solidity while maximizing transition play. His sides were compact, organized, and clinical on the counter. This could suit Spurs’ current squad, especially with wing-backs like Pedro Porro and Destiny Udogie capable of stretching the pitch.

Frank emphasizes data-driven decision-making, pressing in the middle third, and set-piece efficiency. Spurs fans can expect a pragmatic but modern approach, combining structure with moments of expressive freedom for forwards like Son Heung-min and James Maddison.
