With every passing match, the pressure ramps up on Thomas Frank at Tottenham Hotspur.
Spurs were dumped out of the FA Cup at the first hurdle on Saturday, losing 2-1 to Aston Villa at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, making it highly unlikely they will back up last season's UEFA Europa League triumph with a second trophy in as many years.
Out of the Carabao Cup and now the FA Cup, with Spurs 14th in the Premier League table, the Champions League is now the only remaining chance of silverware - and given their form that is a highly unlikely occurrence.
Tottenham Fans Have Lost Patience
There were boos at half-time and full-time in N17 on Saturday evening, although some of the full-time boos may well have been reserved for referee Craig Pawson, who drew the ire of the home supporters throughout.
Boos have become the norm at the end of matches involving Tottenham Hotspur of late, such is the disconnect between the fans and the club.
The January transfer window could be a hugely important one, not just for the club, but for the head coach, who is seemingly holding onto his job by a thread.
It looks like Spurs will tie up a deal to sign Brazilian wonderkid Souza from Santos this month, with the left-back undergoing a medical after a £13million deal was agreed.
At 19 years old and without any top flight European experience, however, Souza is one for the future and Tottenham need players for the here and now.
Spurs Summer Transfer Decision Looks Silly Now
And one player who left in the summer - albeit temporarily - could be a huge benefit to Frank and Spurs right now, given their injury problems.
Tottenham will be without Mohammed Kudus for a couple of months after the Ghanaian picked up a quad injury during the draw with Sunderland last week. That came just days after Frank sanctioned the £35million sale of last year's top scorer Brennan Johnson to Crystal Palace.
Spurs are light in attacking areas and will be looking to rectify that in the January transfer window. But one player on the books in N17 could have solved a number of issues already - Mikey Moore.
The teenager has impressed on loan north of the border at Rangers this season and has come alive in recent weeks having settled in to life in Scotland, with three goals in his last eight appearances for the Gers.
Tottenham legend Glenn Hoddle does not think he should have gone out on loan.
"Mikey Moore, for me, should still be here at Tottenham. He'll be playing [this weekend]. He's a talented lad, doing well at Rangers on loan and I think that is somebody who has a bright future for Tottenham.
"For me, he should be playing here in this squad. They've sold Brennan Johnson and they have got a player, in-house, who is going to get better and better and better."
Rangers take on Aberdeen on Sunday, with Moore likely to be part of the squad, knowing they could go top of the Scottish Premiership table if Hearts slip up against Dundee earlier in the day.
Mikey Moore Has Big Admirers
Former Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou described Moore as a "special player" last season, saying: "He's just turned 17, but even physically, he's such a strong young man. We just have to be careful how we use him and when we use him because, for us, he's going to be a pretty special player."
After a 1-0 win over AZ Alkmaar in the Europa League last season, James Maddison said: "From minute 45 to 65 I thought we had Neymar on the left wing. He was brilliant, demanding the ball, fearless, with that young fearless mentality and you never want to take that away from him."
