I haven't been happy with Frank this season but if they play the rest of the season like they did for the first 25 mins, I'm willing to let him stay until we get a permanent replacement in summer.
Better options at that time

I think the problem will be that a lot of the selection tonight was probably forced on him due to injuries and ineligible players so it kind of worked despite everything.

Call me Mr Cynical if ya like but I think Burnley will give us a tougher test at the weekend.
They didn't lay a glove on us. Most of our lads had time on the ball and moved it about fairly easy. Look, it's a much needed win and have to say, Simons was very good tonight.
I do feel for Frank, because the injury list keeps growing and growing, it's mental. But what impressed me tonight was the effort. That performance says the players are still with Frank, maybe only just, but still.. .
Burnley will either give him some breathing space or the bullet. I think it's that precarious.

Not pointing at you @Dave, but I find it really weird that Frank gets a pass from many Spurs fans elsewhere given how many injuries we have yet they weren't as vociferous for Ange's previously unheard of plight last season. Point being, Ange's style of play was far more attractive & in line with Spurs "DNA" than Frank's plodding play.
Agree about a loss to Burnley. Prior to today's win, he would most definitely been gone. But after today, no idea what the board may do. Hopefully we bring the same energy & urgency to Saturday's game.
FWIW, today's effort surprised me. I didn't expect it.
