Tottenham beat Eintracht Frankfurt 2-0 in the Champions League to finish fourth in the group stages.

The club’s form in the Champions League is in stark contrast to the Premier League campaign, with Thomas Frank struggling for any consistency domestically.

Frank will be delighted with another Champions League success, though, and the win means his team go straight through to the last 16 of the competition without the need for a play-off.

Sum up Tottenham’s win vs Frankfurt in just one sentence

Randal Kolo Muani has been linked with a move away from Tottenham, with Juventus looking to take him after a pretty drab loan spell in North London.

He bagged the first goal in Frankfurt, however, and now, Frank has shared what he told his striker after his latest goal for the team in Europe.

What Thomas Frank told Randal Kolo Muani

The French striker has found his time at Tottenham very tough so far, with the player yet to bag himself his first goal in a Premier League game.

His goal against Frankfurt was tucked away nicely, though, and ultimately, there is now a decision to be made over whether he stays at Tottenham or goes.

MORE SPURS STORIES

After his third goal of the season in the Champions League, Kolo Muani was praised by Frank, who shared what he said to his under-fire player after the game.

He said in his press conference: “I said to him, please don’t only score against your old clubs!

“We know when you come to a new club and a new country, it is never straightforward. I hope this will give him confidence.”

Randal Kolo Muani has three goals in three Champions League starts this season…

What should Tottenham do with him? 🤔

Tottenham should persist with Randal Kolo Muani

There is clearly a player in Kolo Muani and it’s time for Frank to pledge his loyalty to the striker and find a way to get him playing better in the Premier League.

If Jean-Philippe Mateta is the alternative, Tottenham might be better off keeping £40 million for the summer and letting Kolo Muani play his way into form this season.

It’s clear that Muani can play and score goals against PSG and Frankfurt is definitely positive with the challenge now to start finding the net in the Premier League.

Tottenham can’t become a club that simply washes its hands of players after six months and as a result, it’s extremely positive that Frank has given his striker a pat on the back.
