REACTION: AS Monaco 0-0 Tottenham | Spurs Remain Unbeaten In The Champions League

Spurs have climbed to third in the Premier League after a solid, but strangely unexciting win away at whatever Everton's new stadium is called. The first team to score from a set-piece against Everton, as well as being the first team to beat them at their new ground in the Premier League. Thomas Frank's introduction of Kolo Muani from the beginning was a welcome addition, regardless of the Palhinha x Bentancur double pivot. How good are Spurs? Do we know?

Following Tottenham’s drab 0-0 draw with Monaco, Jack is joined by Dan Louw to ask whether Thomas Frank is really the right man to take Spurs forward. The football’s tough to watch, the results aren’t disastrous, but is it just mediocrity dressed up as progress? They also dig into Xavi Simons’ faltering form, his crisis of confidence, and whether Spurs’ issues can really be solved by new signings or if a change of manager would put Spurs on an upward curve. In the Q&A, Dan reflects on his classic Away Days YouTube series, the changing nature of football content, and whether he’d ever bring it back. Learn more about your ad choices.

Jack is joined by Gavin to break down Tottenham’s defeat to Aston Villa, a result that laid bare the increasingly cautious nature of Thomas Frank’s side. From the conservative midfield of Palhinha and Bentancur to the lack of attacking spark and Xavi Simons’ quiet display, it was another afternoon where control seemed to take priority over creativity. The pair also question whether Spurs’ struggles come down to tactics or personnel with Tel and Odobert under scrutiny and debate the ongoing concerns around Pape Sarr’s minutes and Vicario’s form. The chat closes on the bigger issue: Tottenham’s home form and atmosphere. With ticket prices sky-high and the football often uninspired, is it any wonder the stadium feels flat?

Tottenham slipped to a 2-1 home defeat against Aston Villa in a flat and frustrating performance at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Despite a bright start, Spurs quickly lost control and never looked convincing once Villa grew into the game. Questions are now being asked of Thomas Frank’s reserved tactical approach, with his side once again lacking attacking impetus and creativity in the final third. Further scrutiny also falls on Vicario after another shaky display between the posts. A disjointed showing, a disappointing result and a warning that Spurs still feel some way off finding a rhythm.

No Spurs this week, but plenty to talk about. Jack is joined by The Extra Inch’s Windy to take stock of Tottenham’s season so far. Is Thomas Frank genuinely builing a brighter future, or is his system limited? They debate whether the team’s attacking issues come down to personnel or system, and share thoughts on Wilson Odobert's ability and potential dividing fans right now. Then it’s onto listener questions:– How should we manage expectations around young players like Mikey Moore and Luca Williams-Barnet?– Which fumbled academy prospects could’ve made it if handled better?– Who of Kane, Bale or Modric at their Tottenham peak would transform this side most? These and many more. Theme is Ghost Cat by Gillen Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Jack is joined by Billie T to discuss Tottenham’s 2-1 win over Leeds United, a huge result before the international break that ends Leeds’ long unbeaten run at Elland Road. The lads talk about Spurs’ growing solidity under Thomas Frank, the remarkable stat of being the only Premier League team not to concede in the final 15 minutes of games, and whether Frank’s pragmatic, low-xG style is sustainable. There’s praise for Mathys Tel after his goal, Xavi Simons’ influence through the middle, and Udogie’s return to form. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
