Thomas Frank received a great reception following his return to Brentford, but he is still struggling to win over Tottenham fans.<\/p>\n
Spurs manager Frank had an incredible seven years at Brentford, taking them to the Premier League and to the stunning G-Tech Community Stadium.<\/p>\n
Understandably, Frank maintained a low-key demeanor as he walked onto the pitch before kick-off to receive a warm ovation from the home fans for all he has done for Brentford.<\/p>\n
However, seven months after taking over at Spurs, Frank has yet to win the hearts of Spurs supporters, having shouted “boring, boring Tottenham” in the away end at the end of a disastrous match.<\/p>\n
This has become such an issue because Frank doesn’t feel he deserves a club that has always been about style, entertainment and drama.<\/p>\n

Frank was all about set-pieces, moments and success rates at Brentford, but it wasn’t enough for the Tottenham faithful. They want and expect more.<\/p>\n
This was quite muddy and overall dull. For those who have had an empty month, it may have truly tested their resolve. It was completely off. In fact, the first half was so monotonous and boring that traveling Tottenham fans watched an entire repertoire of former players.<\/p>\n
They sang about the likes of Dele Alli, Moussa Dembele, Danny Rose, Ledley King, Eric Dier and even Aaron Lennon. I wonder what one of those players should do now. It was a game that lacked quality, inspiration and skill.<\/p>\n

Brentford are a difficult team to play against. They are well organized, very physical and hit long balls. But it remains up to Tottenham to defeat them and impose their own game. Incredibly, Tottenham have taken fewer shots than any other team in the Premier League in the first half of this season, with a total of 21.<\/p>\n
Tottenham were unable to make a run this time until the 32nd minute, when Richarlison’s chipped cross found Archie Gray and his header was brilliantly blocked by Brentford defender Nathan Collins.<\/p>\n
Brentford’s best shot of the first half came when Jordan Henderson lofted in an inviting cross, but Igor Thiago’s header took the ball away from Kean Lewis-Potter, who was running at the back post.<\/p>\n
However, Brentford had the upper hand at half-time as Lewis Potter converted a big chance and Vitaly Janert headed a direct shot past Spurs keeper Guglielmo Vicario.<\/p>\n
The best part of the whole match was the final whistle.<\/p>\n
