Arsenal taunt at Thomas Frank sees fans rubs salt in Tottenham boss' wounds as sack calls grow

Spurs boss Thomas Frank is under growing pressure at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, following his Arsenal cup blunder at Bournemouth and his team's FA Cup struggles against Aston Villa

Tottenham boss Thomas Frank has been the subject of taunts from travelling Aston Villa fans during the FA Cup third round clash between the two teams.

During the first half the 9,000 fans in the sway end could be heard signing "Thomas Frank is an Arsenal fan." The chant refers to pictures emerging of the Spurs head coach drinking out of an Arsenal branded cup ahead of Wednesday night's 3-2 loss against Bournemouth in the Premier League.

Later in the match, with Villa leading, chants of "You're getting sacked in the morning" could be heard, presumably coming from the away end.

Tottenham went into the match against Villa looking to bounce back from the disappointment of the loss against Bournemouth.

But goals from Emi Buendia in the 22nd minute and Morgan Rogers just before half time saw them trail 2-0 at the break. The scoreline and a possible early exit from the FA Cup piles more pressure on Frank.
