"We have Micky van de Ven and Djed Spence who are doing everything they can. They perform very well so far this season and everyone is frustrated. We do things in a different way, so I don't think it is a big problem. All the players are of course frustrated. They would like to do well, they would like to win, they would like to perform well, so I understand that."
"I would say that, of course, hurts massively. I've never been in charge of a team that created that little in one game, never. So that, of course, I will look into what we can do to make it better. But I think that's one thing. I think everything is a little bit linked. And today, yeah, we didn't hit the level."
Thomas Frank downplayed an apparent show of dissent from Micky van de Ven and Djed Spence while condemning the team's attacking display as one of the worst of his managerial career. Tottenham lost 1-0 to Chelsea through Joao Pedro's first-half goal, marking a third consecutive home defeat and prompting boos from supporters. Van de Ven and Spence appeared not to follow instructions to acknowledge the fans at full-time. Tottenham produced just 0.05xG, the lowest single-game total recorded by Opta since 2012/13 and the lowest by any Premier League side this season. Frank described the creation total as unprecedented and pledged to address the problem.
