Spurs suffered their third loss in their last five league matches at the City Ground as they dropped to 11th place in the Premier League table. Following the 3-0 loss, fans have called for the removal of the Danish manager.Spurs fans took to social media following the 3-0 loss to Nottingham Forest on Sunday to demand that the club call time on Frank's disappointing spell in charge of the Europa League champions. The humiliating defeat left the north London side in the bottom half of the table, with supporters angry after yet another sub-par display that means Spurs have now won only one of their last seven league matches to leave their top-five hopes in tatters.Former Tottenham owner Lord Alan Sugar had also urged the club to bring in ex-Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp as their new manager as he wrote on X: "With the massive fortune of the Lewis family, it would be a win-win situation if they hired Jurgen Klopp in January. Loads of money for players and a great manager. Who agrees #coys."While Frank has clearly lost the support of a section of the fanbase, BBC and The Athletic report that it is unlikely that the club will part ways with the Danish manager at this stage of the season. The ownership does not want to take any knee-jerk decision which could harm the club in the long run.The report adds that Frank's performance has come under scrutiny in recent times and the management is assessing the performance, however, the strong sentiment among the ownership is that they want to stick with the experienced former Brentford boss. Looking for smarter football bets?

That was a bad performance, especially first half. I think overall, especially after the 1-0 goal, we looked disjointed. Also, after the second goal, it looked disjointed after that; didn’t win enough duels; and we couldn’t hit each other - it seems like we gave the ball away every single time we won it back throughout the game. That doesn’t help to win a football match. On paper, black and white, we lose 3-0 here. That is disappointing. The better team won today. When things go against us, we have to keep doing the right thing and keep our cool heads."Add GOAL.com as a preferred source on Google to see more of our reportingDespite the growing criticism and reports of Spurs sacking their manager, the 52-year-old remains confident that he will stay at the club. The Tottenham manager added: "I think it's pretty evident that if no one gets the time, no one can turn this around. This is not a quick fix. I'm very honest about where we are as well. I was also very honest. Today was a very bad performance, no two ways about that. But I also know that to change this will take some time. No one will want to hear about that. It's just reality. I think the ones who have followed the club and the team, I think it's fair to say there's been a few not too consistent performances and that's the thing. We are working very hard."
