'From a coach's perspective' -Tottenham manager reveal what he would change in football

Thomas Frank replaced Ange Postecoglou as the new Tottenham manager after the Australian was asked at the end of the season.

Tottenham are now enjoying a promising start to the season under the guidance of the new manager, having won two of their first three games.

The Danish manager has proposed an innovative measure that he believes would revolutionise any football match.

"I'd have a timeout in each half. From a coach's perspective, I think it would be great to have an opportunity during the game to speak with the players and make adjustments," he told Bet MGM, via Abola.

The 51-year-old coach, who has been in England since 2016, didn't stop there, also addressing the hand-ball rule, which Frank believes is responsible for too many penalties being awarded.

Current laws state that an infringement should be called if the ball "touches a player's hand/arm when it makes their body unnaturally bigger," which occurs "when the position of their hand/arm is not a consequence of or justifiable by the player's body movement for that specific situation."

Frank was unequivocal: "I would eliminate that rule because, for me, it's not right. If there's a handball and it touches your arm inside the box, you're giving the opponent the biggest goal-scoring opportunity just because it touched your arm."

"Of course, if you're on the goal line and trying to defend like a goalkeeper, that's different. But I simply don't understand how, if the ball just touches a player's arm and it touches their arm in certain areas, that results in the biggest opportunity of the game," Frank explained.

"It's a rule that needs to be changed to improve the game and make it fairer," he concluded.
