Former Tottenham defender says ‘messiah’ complex has put the club at a 25-year low
A former Tottenham defender thinks one thing at the North London club is worse than it has been for over 25 years.
It has been widely reported by reputable sources, such as David Ornstein, that there is now an acceptance at Tottenham that Frank may not be able to turn things around.
There is said to be an acknowledgement that the 52-year-old was not the right fit for the club, whose results in the Premier League are going from bad to worse.
Some senior figures at Tottenham now want to see the back of Frank, whose days at N17 appear numbered.
Ramon Vega makes a claim about the toxic atmosphere at Tottenham
The Spurs fans have clearly had enough of the experiment, with chants of ‘you’re getting sacked in the morning’ ringing around the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium after the defeat to West Ham.
Ramon Vega believes that the atmosphere among the fans and inside the Tottenham dressing room is now even worse than it was in the dark days of the late 1990s.
The former Spurs defender wrote on X: “Ange was absolutely slaughtered in the media last year, even after winning a trophy after over 25 years. This guy, who has not even won a Danish pastry as a coach, is being treated like a messiah! WHY???
“By sacking Ange, who has created a team spirit, won a trophy, and made the fans proud again, the Board has underestimated the importance of getting close to fans and the spirit of the club; in fact, it has been killed by appointing Frank.
“This is the most important part of a dressing room and also reflects the fans fostering positive togetherness. It’s toxic at the moment at the highest level, not even in my time in 98’ did we have such a toxic atmosphere. COYS.”
Spurs fans’ discontent may have forced the club’s hand on Frank
Even until a week ago, reports indicated that Vinai Venketesham was planning to give Frank time to turn things around, with the club being hesitant to make a managerial change.
However, it has since emerged that the discontent among Spurs fans with Frank may have been the final straw for the Dane.
Even if Venkatesham and the Tottenham top brass believe that the former Brentford boss is capable of turning things around, the atmosphere has now got so toxic that only a change at the top will remove some of the negativity around the club.
