Tottenham news: Spurs' identity will evolve under Thomas Frank

Supporters like their team to have an identity, and I can already see one at Tottenham under Thomas Frank after less than 10 league games.

At the moment they are a side which is well drilled with a tremendous work ethic and is difficult to beat, and not obsessed with playing out from the back and giving away stupid chances.

I'd also say they are reasonably pragmatic and rely heavily on set-plays, as we saw in their 3-0 win at Everton on Sunday, but there is nothing wrong with that.

Lots of other teams are the same and Spurs have got some big players to aim at, and others who can provide a good delivery.

At the moment it does feel like they are looking for individual brilliance from their forward players in open play to provide the magic moments in games, rather than a system to play through the opposition.

I look at them and think Mohammed Kudus needs some help in that respect, but that help is coming.

The biggest reason I think they will improve, however, is Frank himself.
