All is not well in North London. Arsenal are exhibiting signs of a Premier League title wobble despite being the most consistent team in the division this season, while Spurs are teetering precariously above the drop zone.
Last season's 17th place finish was an embarrassment for a club of Tottenham's stature and it was hoped the arrival of Thomas Frank from Brentford in the summer would herald a return to better days. But, the Dane was unable to steer Spurs clear of trouble and paid the price with his job, just eight months after his appointment.
