Thomas Frank expressed contentment with Tottenham's performance despite two draws against League One teams in friendly matches. A Spurs XI featuring players like Cristian Romero, Richarlison, and Son Heung-min drew 2-2 with Wycombe while another side drew 0-0 at Luton. Pape Matar Sarr scored both goals against Wycombe, but new signings Mathys Tel and Mohammed Kudus did not perform well. Frank emphasized that the extended playtime for players provided a positive takeaway, highlighting the success of high-pressure play and defensive focus during the games while acknowledging areas needing improvement.
"Overall, okay, happy. I would say the big take away on the positive side is that we got more or less 75 minutes into most of the players."
"With the Wycombe game, positives, I felt the high pressure and regaining of the ball was very successful in many ways throughout the game."
"We regained it I don't know how many times, but we created six, seven very dangerous situations where we should have done even more."
"The Luton game, that was the game where I felt, 'okay, there is a bit to be worked on'".
