'It’s a new ballgame'- Teddy Sheringham believes new Tottenham manager needs to steady the ship quickly; pressure already mounting up

The fans are also hoping that the 51-year-old starts on a positive note as Daniel Levy’s watchful eyes will always be on the results and the performances. The Spurs chairman is increasingly under pressure to get the decisions right, and to see Thomas Frank fail might just put the final nail in the coffin for the Englishman.

Managing Tottenham will not be an easy task for Thomas Frank

The English media loves scrutinising Tottenham as the club always creates headlines in one way or another. So, Thomas Frank must aim to silence out all critics as he kickstarts a new era at N17 next season. However, Daniel Levy must also back the Dane in the transfer window and bring in new signings in the summer if the club wants to compete for trophies next season.

Now, Teddy Sheringham believes that the ex-Brentford boss will need to get started at N17 quickly to avoid pressure. Speaking to Sky Bet (via Football.london), Sheringham said,

“I’m okay with the appointment of Thomas Frank. I know he’s done very well with Brentford, but it’s a whole new ballgame from Brentford to Tottenham. You’ve got to be a different type of manager and experience different expectations.”

The ex-Spurs player added,

“Thomas has done very well at Brentford but it’s a big difference managing at Tottenham and it will be interesting to see how that materialises. He’s going to want to get his players in, install a new way of playing football which he has to get across very quickly because if he doesn’t, he’ll start getting under pressure.”

Teddy Sheringham believes Thomas Frank did an incredible job at Brentford, but managing Tottenham will be a ‘new ballgame’ for the 51-year-old as expectations will be higher. The ex-player insists that it will be interesting to see how the Danish tactician manages to lead a big club like Spurs next season. Sheringham urges Thomas Frank to bring in players and instil his style quickly, or he would be under pressure from the get-go.

Fans will also hope that Daniel Levy bring in reinforcements in the summer as the Lilywhites aim to close the gap on their rivals next season. The only question that comes to everyone’s mind is… How does Thomas Frank do a better job at N17 than a man that just ended the club’s 17-year wait for a major trophy? The answer will reveal itself with time as the season progresses.
