Supercomputer predicts where Tottenham finish as Thomas Frank completes transfer business
Tottenham suffered their first setback of Thomas Frank’s reign last weekend as they were beaten 1-0 by Bournemouth.
Evanilson’s early goal was the difference in North London as the travelling Cherries ended their hosts’ unbeaten start to the new Premier League campaign.
Tottenham added Randal Kolo Muani to their squad on transfer deadline day, with the forward arriving on loan from PSG to complete the squad in N17.
The Lilywhites had shown plenty of promising signs in their opening two league outings, and they will be hoping that they can achieve significant progress from their lowly standing at the end of last term.
Tottenham predicted to finish 10th in Premier League
Frank has made a bright start to his Tottenham reign, as his team looked energetic without the ball and clinical in front of goal in their victories over Burnley and Manchester City.

The former Brentford boss has a strong reputation around the league for being an impressive and shrewd tactician, and that has been clear to see from the majority of Spurs’ early displays under his guidance.
Kolo Muani and Xavi Simons have both joined the ranks in the final stages of the transfer window to provide more firepower in the final third, and that could be crucial for the North Londoners moving forward.
They will be hoping to kick-start their season once again after the international break, but Opta’s supercomputer does not predict them to have a good season.
Opta have had their say on the final outcome of the 2025/26 Premier League table, and it isn’t looking good for Spurs, as they are expected to finish tenth, and a huge 21 points behind their rivals Arsenal.
Thomas Frank could lose his job if Spurs don’t finish in Europe
Daniel Levy has lofty ambitions for Spurs as they move into the Frank era, but he will be desperate to see quick signs of improvement under the new boss.
The 63-year-old took plenty of time to decide on Ange Postecoglou’s fate at the end of last season, which suggests that it was only a marginal decision to dismiss him.
With that in mind, he will be keeping a keen eye on Frank to ensure that he can deliver the sizeable upturn that he is expecting from this campaign.
The club chief will certainly be eyeing qualification for European football in the league, and if the manager can’t deliver that, then it would be no surprise to see his position come under threat.
That may be viewed as a harsh stance to take from some quarters, but Spurs simply must be ruthless if they are to close the gap to the top of the table in the future.
