TA: Tottenham players are reluctant to leave Obo, Frank s primary goal is to establish a good relationship with the players

June 11th Frank is about to become the new head coach of Tottenham. TA talked about his primary goal in coaching the team is to establish a good relationship with the players.

After leading Tottenham to the podium to receive the UEFA Cup championship medal, Postkoglu chose to stand away from the spotlight, allowing the players to be the focus of celebration. Reguilon tried to encourage him to join the team after noticing Postkoglu back to the edge. Vicario also grabbed his hand and pulled him into the middle. Postkoglu has established long-term personal connections with many Tottenham players, and he will be deeply missed from the farewell message he received after he left.

These are more than just standard short "Thank you coach" messages, many are obviously very personal and heartfelt tribute to those who help them achieve their UEFA Cup success goals.

Mickey Vandervin wrote on Instagram that he was "forever grateful" to the outgoing head coach. He wrote that despite many ups and downs over the past two years, Postkoglu “believe me from the first day I came to the club”.

Madison described him as "a family man with great morality" and thanked him for putting himself as deputy captain and being a member of the leadership team: "Your unwavering self-confidence and strong mentality are infectious, which is one of the reasons why you can end the club's 17-year title without a championship."

Son Heung-min wrote next to a photo of the two holding the trophy together that Postkoglu was "the legend of Tottenham Hotspur," and told Postkoglu: "It is an incredible honor to be able to learn your leadership style up close, because of you, I became a better player and a better person."

Like Madison and Son Heung-min, Vicario mentioned the leadership position given to him by Postkoglu in his farewell post, and attached a photo of him during his two-year-old coach in North London. Even Bisuma, although Postkoglu replaced him in the first half of the away game to Fulham in March and publicly criticized his performance, wrote that the coach "believe me, motivate me, and help me become better every day".

The connections Postkoglu has made with many Tottenham players, whether experienced veterans or young players, are undoubtedly the factors that Levi considers when deciding to fire him. Naturally, Australians will also maintain lasting emotional connections with the trophy-hungry fan base and the newly-championed champions. Choosing a new coach who can get support from the team immediately is crucial as Tottenham is looking for the sixth official head coach in six years.

Frank seems to be a wise choice from this perspective. He is not only a great coach, he has led Brentford to the Premier League for the first time in 2021 and has remained there. He is also a warm, charming figure who can connect with players.

Frank began his coaching career in the Danish youth team system, specializing in cultivating young players and individuals. At Brentford, he played a key role in elevating young player Mbemo, developing him from a potential talent to one of the top scorers in the Premier League. This is not only due to his coaching, but also the footage of his interaction with Mbemo after the game, which is also due to his personal guidance.

In recent years, Tottenham has similar talent introductions to Brentford, identifying young talents such as Archie Grey (Brentford almost signed him from Leeds United), Berrival and Odobel, and quickly signed them.

Postkoglu is known for convincing players to join Tottenham, and Frank's history of polishing rough jade should encourage the club's young core. David Raya and Ivan Tony, who had grown up under Frank, who was suspended for eight months for violating FA gambling rules, called Frank "the greatest help I can ask for."

Ivan Tony's remarks fully illustrate Frank's ability to build personal connections with determined and ambitious international players, which will be crucial in winning the players' favor in the new season.

Madison, Vicario and Romero are Postkoglu's most determined supporters in the team, and their influence cannot be underestimated. Without their support, a promising season could quickly fall apart. Nuno is an example, when he was fired after four months of coaching at Tottenham and failed to create a sense of unity in the locker room.

After two charming coaches, Pochettino and Mourinho, who have established real connections with the team, Nuno was unable to form an atmosphere of unity, causing momentum to stagnate at the beginning of the season. Like Nuno, Frank needs to win a brand new team without any pre-relationships, so Tottenham’s pre-season tour in Asia will be his first chance to make his mark at the club, which is still shocked by Postkoglu’s departure.

A strong start is crucial to immediately dispel doubts from fans, players and management about whether Postkoglu should continue for the third season, and establishing a connection with the team’s leadership will ensure wider recognition that allows Frank to match the successful start of his predecessor.
