Thomas Frank has come under bizarre criticism after revealing he was previously approached by two big Premier League clubs.
It is too early to say whether or not Tottenham Hotspur will have a good season, with their results fluctuating from one week to the next.
Thomas Frank has helped to steady the ship after a dreadful Premier League campaign, but Spurs are still only eighth in the league table.
On top of this, Tottenham have already been knocked out of the Carabao Cup, which is usually viewed as the most winnable piece of silverware on offer.
Simon Jordan rips into Thomas Frank’s personality
Former Crystal Palace chairman Simon Jordan has blasted Frank, claiming that the Spurs manager ‘sucks’. However, his comments have nothing to do with Tottenham’s performances, but how the manager performs in an interview.
Frank revealed he held talks with Chelsea and Manchester United before his Spurs appointment and Jordan believes this says something negative about the Dane.
He told talkSPORT: “I bet he thought he was good enough for those jobs. I bet he thought he should be in the conversation for those jobs. And if he wasn’t in the conversation for those jobs, he’d would have been morally offended.
MORE SPURS STORIES
“So, the fact that he’s done a good job at Brentford and we’re seeing a side of Thomas Frank that’s very relatable, very human, and very authentic in people’s minds and all the things you would like to think that managers represent and don’t.
“So the fact that he didn’t get two interviews tells you that he sucks at interview levels and spends more time writing a book than doing interviews.”
Responding to Jordan should not be Frank’s priority
Despite sucking at interviews, as Jordan says, Frank secured the managerial role at one of the biggest clubs in England.
It is not uncommon for clubs to interview multiple managers and the fact Frank was not offered a job by Chelsea or Manchester United probably says more about those clubs than it does about him.
Frank should not waste time listening to the opinions of people like Jordan, who are always looking for something to rant about. Instead, he should channel his focus into getting Tottenham winning matches and moving up the Premier League table.
