Brendan Rodgers could be the man to replace Thomas Frank at Tottenham.

The Dane is coming under increased pressure at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium right now after Spurs lost 3-0 away to Nottingham Forest on Sunday.

Djed Spence openly questioned Frank at the City Ground, raising more questions over the respect he commands in North London.

Frank could face the sack at Tottenham after just months in charge as fans continue to grow frustrated with results and performances this season.

The Lilywhites could now look to move on from Frank and replace him with Rodgers after what Jeff Stelling has heard.

Brendan Rodgers could replace Thomas Frank at Tottenham

Rodgers is one of the favourites to take over Tottenham should the N17 club look to pull the trigger on the Danish head coach.

The 52-year-old has overseen just 16 Premier League matches with the Lilywhites after replacing Ange Postecoglou over the summer.

With just six wins and an 11th-place spot in the table, it is fair to say that supporters have had enough with Frank after the Forest defeat.

Rodgers could be the man to turn things around in North London, with the ex-Liverpool man available after leaving Celtic earlier this season.

This idea was put forward to Stelling live via talkSPORT on 15 December, and he was certainly open to the Northern Irishman’s appointment.

He said: “Abby, who’s a Manchester United fan, says, ‘Thomas Frank is out of his depth with Spurs, it’s too big a challenge, and he’ll get the push by Christmas. Que Brendan Rodgers arriving at the scene.’

“[That’s] Not the daftest of suggestions.“

Rodgers could stabilise Tottenham this season

There would be plenty of noise in N17 if the former Celtic boss were to come in and become the new Spurs manager.

Tottenham fans may not be pleased to welcome the 52-year-old, but he does have a winning pedigree that the Lilywhites need.

Rodgers was a serial winner in Scotland and came so close to winning the Premier League during his spell with Liverpool.

He isn’t the most inspiring of appointments, but as a man manager to get the best out of a struggling squad, he could be a useful option to potentially replace Frank.
