Spurs' effectiveness from set-pieces so far this season should come as no surprise.
This is not about hopeful balls into the box or copying the latest trend. This is about Thomas Frank being a details man who surrounds himself with equally technically and tactically astute staff.
While we scored 11 times from set-pieces last season, we have already produced five goals from them under Frank.
In direct contrast to his predecessor, Frank not only understands the technical and tactical detail of set-pieces, but he also believes passionately in their importance - an opinion that has changed during his career, as he has progressed to different clubs and developed his way of coaching.
When you are trying to build something new with people who you are still getting to know, it is a common human and coaching behaviour to go with what you know. Frank knows set-pieces and, perhaps more significantly, he knows an expert in them - Andreas Georgson.
Georgson helped Frank turn Brentford into set-piece specialists during their time together at the club, so when the Swede was also recruited to Spurs in the summer, it made sense that becoming better at attacking and defending set-pieces would be a priority.
Kevin Danso famously won the long throw-in competition in pre-season and is already causing chaos with it in this campaign. Micky van de Ven, someone with exceptional speed, was identified as a player who should be making more of his height and build to really bully opponents at both ends of the pitch. Both were excellent against Everton on Sunday.
Clearly, Spurs cannot rely on set-pieces alone. However, while Frank continues to improve the system so that our attacking players can flourish, being a force to be reckoned with from set-pieces is another valuable layer in a set of increasingly promising foundations.
