"Need to play better" - Tottenham star discusses adjustment to Thomas Frank's tactics
"Tottenham centre-back Micky van de Ven has admitted that he and his teammates need to play better than they did last night against Bodo/Glimt. The Netherlands international scored as Spurs came from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 in Norway, but it wasn't the best result in a game Thomas Frank's side would have been expected to win. Frank has made a decent start to life as Tottenham manager since joining from Brentford in the summer, but there is perhaps still a bit of an adjustment period going on."
"Tottenham look to be heading in a pretty positive direction under Frank's management, even if it's not exactly been the most sensational start to the 2025/26 season. So far, it's five wins from the first ten games of the season for Spurs, with three draws and two defeats, one of which was only after a penalty shoot-out against Paris Saint-Germain in the Super Cup. THFC also have four points from their first two Champions League fixtures, which isn't too bad, though they are now on a run of three draws and one win in their last four games in all competitions."
Micky van de Ven scored as Tottenham recovered from a two-goal deficit to draw 2-2 with Bodo/Glimt in Norway. The comeback earned a point but fell short of expectations for the fixture. Tottenham have five wins, three draws and two defeats from their first ten matches of the 2025/26 season and hold four points from two Champions League games. The squad is on a run of three draws and one win in the last four matches across competitions. Young players such as Xavi Simons and Lucas Bergvall are identified as important for ongoing improvement.
