Thomas Frank's time at Tottenham Hotspur is over. The club pulled the trigger just hours after last night's defeat to Newcastle United. Frank promised he'd be there for the Arsenal game on February 22, but Spurs had other ideas.
The writing was on the wall for weeks. Frank didn't win a single Premier League game from the end of 2025 onwards. Tottenham are now just five points above the relegation zone—that's genuinely terrifying for a club of their stature.
To be fair to Frank, he inherited a mess from Ange Postecoglou and dealt with a brutal injury crisis. Tottenham paid Brentford £6.7 million to get him and his staff. That's looking like money down the drain now, especially with a hefty severance package still to come.
But here's the thing—his team looked passive and easy to beat. That's the complete opposite of what he built at Brentford. The squad lacked identity and fight, which ultimately sealed his fate. Anyone thinking about backing Spurs right now should wait to see who takes over this absolute hospital pass of a job.
Chelsea's Men Throw Away Two Points in Spectacular Fashion
Chelsea had Leeds United beaten last night. They were cruising at 2-0 with less than 30 minutes left. Then everything fell apart in the most Chelsea way possible.
Moises Caicedo gave away a soft penalty. The entire backline then gifted Noah Okafor an equalizer with defending that defied belief. And then Cole Palmer—usually ice-cold from the spot—missed a sitter in injury time that would've won it.
Those two dropped points could be massive in the top-four race. Chelsea under Liam Rosenior have been decent, but this kind of collapse raises serious questions. Leeds, by the way, look solid enough to stay up after their promotion.
Chelsea Women Face Power Struggle Behind the Scenes
Chelsea's women's team had gone 10-and-a-half years without losing two league games in a row. Read that again—it's an incredible record. But this season they're struggling, and now their head of women's football Paul Green is gone.
According to reports, there's a massive power struggle at Stamford Bridge. Figures from the men's side are apparently interfering with the women's setup. One source called it "a masterpiece being torn apart," which tells you everything about how well this is going down.
The players aren't happy. The results have dropped off. It looks like Chelsea tried to fix something that wasn't broken, and now both their men's and women's teams are in chaos at the same time.
James Rodriguez joined Minnesota United and sat down for a fascinating interview. The 34-year-old set the record straight about quitting Bayern Munich (it wasn't just the cold weather, apparently). His devotion to Colombia's national team is something special—he compared it to representing his ancestors and roots.
Meanwhile, fellow Colombian Jhon Duran continues his bizarre career journey from England to Saudi Arabia to Turkey and now Russia. That's quite the travel itinerary for one season.
