Clean sheets is a pointless stat. Goals against is what you want to look at.

This must be a hell of a welcome video, dread to think what they've got him doing.
Slow-motion video of Frank bungee jumping from the Spurs cockerel on the stadium roof in order to properly showcase his majestic set of hair. Only way to win over the fans

Antonio Conte was the pretender, Thomas Frank is the real deal! :)

I'll disagree here.

Levy likes to be the face of the organization, but he is not a front man. He is not who we want to put in front of the press - it will come across poorly, imo. And, ultimately< I don't think that benefits anyone, including the club.

I understand your concerns, and I think maybe teams, in general, should do better than just sticking a manager in front of the press to answer for everything going on at the club. Maybe Venkatesham can be more press-friendly, and introduce himself, and some of the thinking behind the clear changes in direction going on at the club. (I would expect some rather generic answers though, rather than disclosing any internal fighting.)

Still...I find the fact that anyone above manager are all so "Press Shy" deeply concerning. When have Levy, Munn, or Lange done any interviews that are harder than puff pieces by friendly faces? Hopefully, as you say, Venkatesham will help start a new beginning of dealing with fans / press.

I think we will improve with a more organized team structure alone.

I'm still a little nervous with Vicario having to make decisions with the ball at his feet, but I think he will have better passing options this season.
I wouldn’t want to place much cash on Vic being nailed on for No.1 next year. I think Kinsky will push him very hard next year - I’ve liked what I’ve seen from him so far. I like Vic, some of the saves he’s made are unreal but I think with a better organised defence and midfield, he should have less of those type of saves to make. That will just leave his command of the area and his distribution as possibly being his more regular contributions, both of which he needs to do some heavy lifting on in my opinion.

I think Kinsky's ceiling might be higher, and I rate Vic.

I am warming to Frank, he speaks a lot of sense, but it's still hard to be optimistic when Short Round still has the final say
