Thomas Frank is preparing for a tough challenge as Tottenham Hotspur hosts Manchester United on Saturday, despite beating them four times last season, including the Europa League final. The upcoming match is crucial, as a win for either side would put them provisionally second in the table.


Tottenham finished 17th last season, while Manchester United finished 15th, making this a significant opportunity for both teams to turn their seasons around. United has shown improvement under Ruben Amorim, winning four of their last six games, and Amorim was named Premier League manager of the month on Friday.


Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim is finally turning things around at Old Trafford, with a solid start to the season following a terrible beginning. Amorim, who took over from Erik ten Hag last year, led United to their worst-ever Premier League finish, but things are looking up after a shaky start to this season.



 United have won four of their last six games, and Amorim's efforts have been recognized with the Premier League Manager of the Month award for October. This is a significant turnaround, considering the pressure Amorim faced earlier in the season.



“It is a United team with more confidence. I think Ruben and his coaching staff have done a good job. It has obviously been a tough year for them, so I admire him a lot for going through such a tricky spell with many setbacks,” Frank told reporters.


“They are in a moment where they have every key player available. We know exactly what to expect from them. They have an incredibly dangerous front three.”


Tottenham Hotspur's Champions League win over FC Copenhagen hasn't translated to their Premier League performances, with their last home league win dating back to the opening weekend against Burnley. Their recent home form has been disappointing, exemplified by a 1-0 loss to Chelsea, where they struggled to create meaningful attacking opportunities.


The team's struggles at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium have been evident, with only one win in five home games this season. Manager Thomas Frank is under pressure, and the team's lack of fluency in the final third is a concern. Frank has acknowledged the team's struggles, emphasizing the need for improvement.


“It is a big shirt to wear,” Frank said of his side's problems at home. “You should be proud and excited to play in this shirt, whether at home or anywhere.


“I can understand that the stats are not too good over a long time. For me, it is a new opportunity and a new one to embrace in the best possible way.”






Thomas Frank is optimistic about new signing Xavi Simons, saying, “I think every player needs confidence. Even the best in the world. When you go to a new club, it is not always that easy to hit the ground running.” Frank believes Simons will improve and become a key player for Tottenham.


Mohammed Kudus, Tottenham's standout player this season, is a doubt for Saturday's match against Manchester United after picking up a training injury. “He's touch-and-go for tomorrow,” Frank said, indicating the uncertainty surrounding the forward's availability.
