It isn't actually, they often post nonsense like that, such as " x would be a great fit", " y is being looked at" and so on and on.It very rarely pans out

The Telegraph very rarely talk about us but when they do it is usually spot on.

Percy has probably fed something back. It would make sense looking at Frank. 

Percy has retweeted it now. Usually a credible source

If it was a DailyMail or Sun article, maybe

 

But seeing how its the Telegraph, probably something to it

 

Percy has retweeted it now too.

Thomas Frank.

Why?

Yes, he's done well but just think that he comes across as very arrogant.

I'm not convinced by Frank, but I think he'd definitely come if the offer was right. 

[LeeTheFox]

Thomas Tuchel is the dream. 🙏🏼

I do have to wonder why people insist on Dyche being the " Nuclear Option"

Makes no sense at all, going Nuclear would be some premier league or relegation tested foreign unknown !

It's is in the sense of his style of play and his overall image. It very much goes against what the club have been trying to do over the last few years.

 

He is renowned to sceptical of things like data and sports science, yet we've invested a lot in both. We also have a squad that Brendan Rodgers built and is currently playing a style of football wildly different to Dyche's. It's a huge gamble to expect him to either try and get this squad playing his way, or instead ask him to play a style that he has zero experience with.

 

It would be a manager to plug particular holes that exist at the minute and then hope he keeps us up. He isn't a long term option.

 

I could see him improving things for a few weeks but come May I think we'd be in trouble again.

No chance. Why would you leave Brentford to get on the titanic. 

If we double his salary, he'll come. Money talks

I would take him. Nasty streak in him, will get in other teams faces, wind up supporters, get the feeling players would run through walls for him. Everything that our ego-maniac, top 6 arse kissing ‘leader’ isn’t.

We could easily triple his wages and he’d still be on half of what Rodgers is. He’s proving himself in the Prem, will always play good football. 
 

Anyone saying that he wouldn’t come is either daft, or a Brentford fan. 
 

Yes we are lying bottom of the league but still have 31 games left to play. The best training ground in the league. A phenomenal group of players. We are a very attractive proposition.

I guess how Brentford recruit players and spot future talents in that money ball approach of spotting players, would appeal. It's what Leicester used to look to do, as well as his style of play.

Seems like like one or two managers are waiting and watching what happens to Leicester in a day or two before complementing a move to Brighton, Forest or even Bournemouth

Do you really want Rafa? He wouldn’t know how to get us out of a relegation fight and he was terrible at Everton. 

Everyone is terrible at Everton. They're always a bad run away from relegation with a fanbase who wonder why they aren't in the Europa every season. They only stayed up because we gifted them points at the end of the season.

 

That said Rafa would be a huge gamble. One up front and that would be Perez

[Lionator]

If Frank was out of work, he’d absolutely be top of our list. And let’s face it he’s a better option than most being touted. 

[RowlattsFox]

Frank might use Iversen too...but then he might also use Vestergaard. 

[alex]

Why not Poch? Why would he not come here? He needs a project, this is a great one.

How he used Vestegaard would be different tho.

Not my experience, however, even if it is true, what are they actually saying ??

We admire him ? so do a lot of other clubs now I imagine, but that is a very long way from having approached Brentford, having talks with him and so on, isn't it ?

Its meaningless nonsense in real terms, it's just to fill up space, and that is all it is

Frank would be absolutely superb!

Cos he's considered part of the Spurs family 

[StriderHiryu]

Thomas Frank has experience managing in the Championship 

[StriderHiryu]

Jokes aside he’s a good coach, especially in the bigger picture of developing the entire club and academy. I think he’s a bad loser and got bailed out massively by Christian Eriksen, but think he’d do well with technical players, of which we have many. 
 

He’s been linked to us before do definitely something in it. 

[StanSP]

I'd take Frank. He's upped Brentford's stature massively. Plays a decent brand of football and doesn't back down in the press, takes the pressure away from his players. 

 

I think with the players we have he could get a good tune out of them. 

[kingkisnorbo]

Frank wouldn’t come.
