Thomas Frank Feels Board Trust Amidst Tottenham Pressure

Tottenham head coach Thomas Frank says he is "feeling the trust" of the club's hierarchy despite a disappointing season so far. BBC Sport understands Frank is under significant scrutiny within the club as they considering ending his seven-month reign. Spurs have so far backed Frank publicly despite their struggles this season, although Saturday's home defeat by West Ham has added to the pressure on the Dane. Frank had lunch on Monday with chief executive Vinai Venkatesham, as well as other board members Nick Beucher and Johan Lange, which he said was "all good". "We had a good conversation about life and football and the future of the club," said Frank at a news conference before Tuesday's Champions League match at home to Borussia Dortmund. "It is an extremely good sign because normally people run away if there is bad news or bad weather coming, they are normally not coming in and being friendly for lunch."
