Brentford man tempted to join Tottenham Hotspur

Brentford man tempted to join Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou has endured a difficult season at the club.

Spurs are 11th in the Premier League standings and their form this season has been highly disappointing.

They have had some positive results this season, like the wins against Manchester United and Manchester City, however, they have failed to be consistent over the course of the season.

At the moment, they have just one win in their last eight games and questions are being raised about the future of Postecoglou at Tottenham.

Along with West Ham United, Tottenham are interested in Brentford manager Thomas Frank.

According to TEAMtalk, if the North London club make a move for the Brentford boss, he could be tempted to leave his club to join Spurs.

Frank has firmly established himself as a respected Premier League manager, with his work at Brentford widely regarded as exemplary.

His ability to build a competitive squad, develop players, and deliver consistent results has made him one of the standout managers in the league.

Frank has earned the admiration of Brentford’s supporters by guiding the team to promotion from the Championship during the 2020/21 season through the play-offs, followed by a successful run in the Premier League. Since then, he has been instrumental in maintaining the club’s top-flight status.

Tottenham face competition from West Ham United

The Hammers are struggling to perform this season under Spanish manager Julen Lopetegui and they are also keeping an eye on the Brentford man.

After a busy summer transfer window in which they made a number of new signings, Lopetegui has been unable to get the best out of them.

The race to appoint Frank could heat up and both the London rivals could go against each other to appoint him.

The manager is recognised for working under a budget and still playing attractive football and that has particularly caught the attention of both Spurs and West Ham.

Spurs are currently backing Postecoglou to succeed at the club and they hope that with the start of new year when they can get some of their injured players back, they will be able to regain their form.

Trent Alexander-Arnold breaks silence on his future at Liverpool

Trent Alexander-Arnold breaks silence on his future at Liverpool

Trent Alexander-Arnold’s future at Liverpool has been the subject of conversation at the club.

The right-back has entered the final year of his contract at the club and he has still not signed a new deal at Anfield.

The England international has been linked with a move to Real Madrid where his best friend Jude Bellingham plays.

Along with Alexander-Arnold, Mohamed Salah and Virgil Van Dijk are the other two players who are still facing an uncertain future at the club because of their contract issues.

The start of the new year will give all these players the authority to negotiate a pre-contract agreement with other clubs.

Alexander-Arnold has claimed that he will not discuss the details of his contract situation with Liverpool in public.

“I have been at the club 20 years now, I have signed four or five contract extensions and none of those have been played out in public – and this one won’t be either,” Alexander-Arnold told Sky Sports News.

The Liverpool star is enjoying life under Arne Slot and he has been particularly impressed by the level of details that the Dutch manager works with.

Slot’s brilliant work has translated into Liverpool’s performances this season, who are leading the Premier League and the Champions League standings.

“The level of detail he has… I find myself smiling about it because that’s the kind of thing that I really enjoy,” Alexander-Arnold said.

“It’s just football in like a very, very in-depth level.

“I could tell from the first time I met him that I was going to enjoy playing under him and being a part of this. I’m feeling like I’m going to get better and improve and learn so much in such a short space of time and just keep on learning, because I could tell he was football obsessed and the level of detail was incredible.”

Trent Alexander-Arnold to stay at Liverpool?

The fact that the defender is enjoying life at Anfield under Slot should give the fans hope and confidence of the player staying at the club.

His personal performances have improved immensely under the Dutch manager and it appears like the defender has worked hard on the defensive aspect of his game.

Alexander-Arnold is a special talent and Liverpool need him to stay at the club and continue being an important part of the project.

“Amorim looks fed up” – Pundit claims Man United boss has had enough of one player

“Amorim looks fed up” – Pundit claims Man United boss has had enough of one player

14/12/2024, England, Multi Sports, English Sports Publications, Article # 32118583

Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has been rotating his squad since joining the club.

The first goal of his tenure at the Premier League club was scored by Marcus Rashford against Ipswich Town but the English attacker has been in and out of the team.

He has failed to cement his place in the starting line up at the club under the new manager and questions have been raised about his long term future at Old Trafford.

Rashford has been linked with an exit from the club with the Red Devils reportedly ready to cash in on him. They have been linked with a move for Brighton attacker Evan Ferguson to replace the unwanted Man United player.

Football pundit Troy Deeney has claimed that Amorim is already fed up of Rashford and he went on to describe one of his recent performances as a “disgrace”.

‘Marcus Rashford looks like he is carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders,’ Deeney wrote in a column for The Sun.

‘Everything is always everybody else’s fault and his application stinks.

‘He is still capable of moments. It wouldn’t surprise me if he goes and scores the winner against Manchester City this weekend and then goes missing for the next few weeks.

‘He knows he can live off these “moments” and nothing more, and that isn’t good enough. It is the same old cycle.

‘A new manager comes in and for three of four games you see a “new Rashford” and then he slips back into his old ways and old form.

‘He then begins to get dropped. We saw it on Thursday night, subbed off against Viktoria Plzen and already United boss Ruben Amorim looks fed up with him.

‘Look, I’ve been there. It’s not nice when that is happening.

‘As a striker you want to be left on to build some momentum, but I was at the Emirates when he came on against Arsenal last week. He was a disgrace.

‘Amorim summed it up best when he joined, telling Rashford he will get full support but it is up to him as a player, a person.

‘That’s where the problem lies. Nobody wants Rashford to fail, but if he keeps delivering these substandard performances then we will all keep on saying the same things.’

Time for Man United to let Marcus Rashford leave?

Rashford is one of the senior most players in the squad and his attitude as an experienced member of the side is not up to the mark.

He has failed to find consistency for a very long time now and the Red Devils are thinking about letting him leave the club.

The English attacker has never fully lived up to his full potential which is concerning for a player like him who is now 27-years-old.

Issues off the pitch may have distracted the player but that is not Man United’s concern.

They deserve to get better performances from the player and a lot of managers have tried and failed to extract that.
