Thomas Frank has now revealed whether Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall have done enough to start together for Tottenham in the Premier League.
Thomas Frank rang the changes ahead of Tottenham Hotspur’s clash with Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday, as he sought a response from his team.
Lucas Bergvall and Archie Gray were amongst those who came into Frank’s side, as the Dane reverted from his 3-4-3 setup in the derby day defeat last weekend to Arsenal.
Both youngsters have had their struggles after being sidelined because of injuries, but their return to the side brought some much-needed energy and freshness to Tottenham’s game.

The duo were involved in Tottenham’s opening goal, following a neat exchange at the byline before Gray picked out Randal Kolo Muani at the back post, who then assisted Richarlison for the opener.
Gray was also involved in the second for Spurs, as his glancing touch was headed onto the crossbar before it fell kindly to the feet of Kolo Muani, who volleyed home.
Such performances will not go unnoticed, and Tottenham boss Thomas Frank has opened up on whether the pair could be involved at the weekend against Fulham.

Speaking to the official Tottenham channel, Frank introduced his thoughts by highlighting the level required to start in the Premier League before offering a firm indication of what their midweek showing meant to him.
He said, “I think if you perform like you did against the European champions away from home, you are ready to start in the Premier League.”

It remains to be seen if both players will feature again from the off as they did in the midweek.
The inclusion of both Gray and Bergvall saw some big names dropped, as Mohammed Kudus, Xavi Simons and Joao Palhinha were left on the bench by Frank.
