Tottenham Changes Style Under the Leadership of Frank

• Tottenham is changing its tactical approach in the game under the new coach.
• Frank emphasizes attention to standard situations and set-piece structure.
• Bissouma is returning to the squad after a disciplinary issue.

Tottenham Hotspur continues to adapt its style of play under the leadership of new coach Thomas Frank after completing the previous season, in which the team won the Europa League but suffered 22 defeats in the league. Frank, unlike his predecessor, Andrej Postekglu, begins to take a pragmatic approach to tactics, which he demonstrated during the Supercup match against Paris Saint-Germain. In that match, the team showcased new tactical schemes, including utilizing long passes from goalkeeper Hugo Lloris to striker Harry Kane, which is a change compared to the previous style of play.

Frank plans to utilize players in positions that contribute to achieving maximum effectiveness in attack. In matches before the season, the team demonstrated readiness for quick attacks, as well as changes in the defensive structure aimed at reducing the number of conceded goals. One of the key innovations is the emphasis on standard situations, given that last season Tottenham conceded 12 goals from such situations.

Thomas Frank also confirmed the return of Yves Bissouma to the squad for the first match of the season against Burnley after he was suspended due to a previous incident. The coach stressed the importance of establishing standards within the team and emphasized the need to support young player Matheus Tela after the recent racist remarks from fans.
