"Thomas Frank has been sacked as Tottenham Hotspur manager, with the stats behind his tenure showcasing why the club were forced to take the drastic decision of changing the man at the helm. The writing had long been on the wall for Frank with the Dane enduring chants of "you're getting sacked in the morning" from his own fans during the 2-1 defeat to Newcastle on Tuesday as well as boos following the full-time whistle, a feature that has become all too common at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium."
"Two wins in Frank's last 17 games in the Premier League The last time Spurs were five points or fewer from the relegation zone after 28 match days was the 2008-09 season (March 11, 2009), sitting four points above the drop then. Spurs are winless in their last eight Premier League games (four draws, four defeats), the club's longest Premier League winless streak since May-October 2008 under Juande Ramos (9)"
Thomas Frank was dismissed as Tottenham Hotspur manager amid sustained poor Premier League form and regular fan hostility. Spurs recorded only two wins in Frank's last 17 league matches and were winless in their last eight Premier League games (four draws, four defeats). The team has not won any of 24 league matches when trailing at half-time and has conceded the opening goal in nine home games this season. Spurs failed to win any of their last 27 matches when conceding first, and Frank averaged just 1.12 points per game (29 points in 26 games). Tottenham now face a 3.95% chance of relegation.
