Thomas Frank is now under increasing pressure at Tottenham after the 2-1 defeat against West Ham at home.
The Dane knew that it was a must-win game as Spurs were in 14th place, but it was yet another uninspiring performance that led to them losing it.
Frank could face the sack at Tottenham despite moving to North London in the summer, as he has failed to do well at the club.

However, with Tottenham in 14th place, a decision will need to be made if he deserves time to turn things around or if a new manager is to be appointed.
The club will also consider the fact that the fans have started to turn on him and even chanted: “You’re getting sacked in the morning.”
How can Frank turn things around at Tottenham?
If the hierarchy decide to stick with the Dane, he will not be given too much time to turn things around.
Whatever needs to be done must be done immediately, and it remains to be seen what his plan is.
For starters, he could look to change the shape of his team and look to make two or three permanent changes to his starting eleven.
There is a good chance that the likes of Dominic Solanke and Mathys Tel are made front and centre of his plans.
Dropping underperforming players, no matter their influence in the dressing room, will send a message to the squad that he means business and is not willing to tolerate things as they are.
Until he takes drastic action, things are not expected to change and will only lead to the club’s downfall.
It remains to be seen what his pitch to the board is if he does believe he can turn things around.
