Tottenham Hotspur shrugged off their domestic gloom with a 2-0 victory over Borussia Dortmund that took the heat off head coach Thomas Frank and put them within touching distance of the Champions League knockout stages on Tuesday.

A much-improved performance from Spurs help lift some of the pressure that had built up on head coach Thomas Frank and his team

Thomas Frank's Seat STAYS Hot - Morning Footy

Thomas Frank could smile at last on Tuesday as a 2-0 victory for his Tottenham Hotspur team against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League released some of the pressure that appeared to be reaching a critical level.

Thomas Frank has compared his job at Tottenham Hotspur to turning a “super-tanker … in the right direction” after Saturday’s home defeat by West Ham United.

However, those two clubs are not alone. Galetti followed up his initial report adding another interesting nugget — Tottenham Hotspur is also in the mix. Spurs coach Thomas Frank is sputtering and considered to be on shaky ground at the club, which has allowed Tottenham to rekindle an old flame:

The 20-year-old was signed from Bayern Munich by former boss Ange Postecoglou on an initial loan deal last season, and his move to Tottenham Hotspur was made permanent in June for £30m (€35m, $40m), just three days after Frank’s appointment.
