Thomas Frank reveals one thing he will not do at Tottenham until April

3 hours ago 32

Thomas Frank has provided an interesting response when asked about Tottenham Hotspur sitting near the top of the Premier League table.

Spurs sat third in the table going into matchweek five, having won three and lost one of their first four games. However, the Lilywhites picked up an extra point away to Brighton, pushing them up to second for a short time.

The most impressive thing about Frank’s men in the opening four games was their defensive solidity, with the Lilywhites proving nearly impossible to break down, conceding just one goal. Unfortunately, that tally tripled after conceding another two at the hands of Brighton.

Frank has labelled Cristian Romero as one of the best centre-backs in the world, and the Dane will be hoping that the Spurs captain can help his side keep plenty more clean sheets over the coming months.

Thomas Frank is not paying any attention to Tottenham’s position in the Premier League table

Tottenham may have made an impressive start to the 2025/26 campaign, but Frank insists he will not pay any attention to the standings until very late in the Premier League season.

When asked when he will start looking at the Premier League table, Frank smiled and responded (via Tottenham): “April? Let’s put it that way. I think I looked at the table a couple of times after one of the last games, and I thought, ‘ooh, is that team that high or that low?’ because I’m not looking at it.

“I’m trying really to focus on ourselves and our performances and what we can do. It is so easy to get dragged into something you can’t control.”

Frank gives Spurs fans the license to dream

Tottenham have found themselves near the top end of the table at this stage of the campaign on a few occasions over recent years, only for the wheels to come off at the second of the season.

While Frank insisted that the supporters have a right to dream of the impossible, he also made it clear that he will remain focused on the here and now.

The Spurs head coach added: “I think for the fans, they should dream, they should hope and all that. That is what football is all about.

“I also dream and hope, but I’m a little bit closer to the action, so I need to stay level-headed and focus on the next training because it needs to be perfect like today.

“It was very good training, with the coaches, with the staff, top players. Everything ran very well, and then I need to do what I can to make sure we win more.”
