The article discusses Tottenham Hotspur's poor home record in the Premier League, with only Wolves having a worse record behind them. Former Spurs player Danny Murphy and current coach Thomas Frank have both been quoted as saying that there is still hope for improvement at home. Despite only having 14 points from 12 games, Murphy believes that Frank will get things right and that the team just needs a bit of luck in the fixture list to turn their season around. He also notes that the quality of players available to Spurs is returning, which should help improve their performance.

I'm not buying it 
. 14 points from 12 games is not exactly a bad record, especially considering the team's squad depth and player acquisition situation. It sounds like they're just trying to put a positive spin on things. I mean, Danny Murphy played for Spurs, so what does he know about their current state? Has he seen the way the team is performing in those games? 
And Frank's track record as a manager isn't exactly impressive... his team at Brentford didn't exactly set the world on fire either.
And "just needs a bit of luck"? That's not a strategy, that's just wishful thinking
. What about some actual changes to their tactics or squad dynamics? Are they going to magically improve because Frank says so? I need to see some concrete evidence before I start believing that Spurs are on the verge of turning it around 
. Can we get an update on the team's injury report or something?

Can we get an update on the team's injury report or something?I gotta say, I'm not entirely sold on this "there's hope" vibes . Don't get me wrong, I love watching Spurs play at home, but 14 points from 12 games is just... not good enough 
. I mean, Wolves are behind them in the table, that's some serious ground to make up! 
I do think Danny Murphy's right, though - Thomas Frank does have a solid track record at Brentford and he knows how to get the most out of his players. And yeah, Spurs have been bringing in some quality talent lately, so that should help turn things around
.
But, I'm still waiting for some concrete signs of improvement before getting too excited. They need to start winning some games at home and showing consistency, or this season's going to be a long one 
. Still, with Spurs' history and all, you've got to keep the faith, right?

they're not doing too bad considering all the injuries and whatnot... but still gotta get those 3 points at home lol so hopefully frank can whip them into shape and we see some consistency from them. 14 points from 12 games is def a rough start, but murphy's right that luck plays a huge role in these things 
i mean who doesn't love an underdog story? plus murphy himself played for spurs so he knows what they need to work on... and it sounds like frank's got some solid ideas 
fingers crossed for spurs!

That's like saying you're halfway up a mountain after just taking three steps 
. And yeah, Danny Murphy and Thomas Frank are both saying the right things, but we've heard that before too 
. The thing is, it's not just about 'a bit of luck' or 'getting players back'. It's about building consistency and a winning mentality . I mean, Wolves have only 14 points more than Spurs, what's different for them?
And another thing, if the quality of players is returning, why aren't they doing anything about it on the pitch? I'm not asking for miracles, just a bit of cohesion and strategy
. Until that happens, I'll keep saying Spurs are stuck in neutral

. Until that happens, I'll keep saying Spurs are stuck in neutral ️.It's wild to think that Tottenham Hotspur, one of the biggest teams in England, are struggling so badly at home . 14 points from 12 games is not great, but I'm with Danny Murphy on this one - Thomas Frank has been doing a solid job as coach and I believe he'll get the team back on track 
. The problem is, Spurs have been inconsistent lately and it's easy to see why they're having trouble at home. The stadium can be intimidating for opposing teams, but also a bit of a curse for Spurs themselves 
.
But seriously, the quality of players coming in has to make a difference, right? I mean, we've seen what some of these stars can do on the pitch and it's only a matter of time before they gel as a team. And with Frank's tactical approach, I think Spurs will start winning more games and gaining confidence. Until then, let's just say it'll be an interesting second half of the season

. Until then, let's just say it'll be an interesting second half of the season .I mean, come on... 14 points from 12 games and they're already saying there's hope? I'm not convinced, mate. They need more than just a bit of luck, they need some solid performances. And what's with this 'quality of players available' business? It's all well and good, but when you're getting thrashed at home like Spurs are, it's time for some serious tinkering in the dugout.
Frank's been saying some positive things, I'll give him that, but we've heard it all before. The thing is, until they start winning games consistently, we can't just write off a poor run of form as 'just luck'. It's Spurs, after all... they're used to disappointment. Until they sort out their home record, they're never going to be considered more than mid-table, mark my words.

. And what's with the "quality of players" thing? Just because some top talent is coming back to the squad doesn't mean they're gonna magically turn their home form around 
.
I've seen teams go through this before and come out on the other side just as bad, or even worse
. It's easy to say there's still hope when you're not the one stuck with a subpar home record 
. I need to see some actual changes in the team's tactics and personnel before I start getting all optimistic .
I'm also curious, where are these 14 points exactly? Is it just based on some article or statistic that someone found online
? Give me a source and let's discuss

And don't get me wrong, Danny Murphy and Thomas Frank are both trying to spin this as a positive, but let's be real, they're just trying to keep the fans' hopes up . The fact is, Spurs have been struggling for years now and it's starting to look like a habit they can't shake off. And luck? Please, that's just a band-aid solution . They need to sort out their team dynamics, get some decent players in, and then maybe, just maybe, we'll see an improvement. But I'm not counting on it

But I'm not counting on it .omg u guys can't believe how much spurs are struggling at home i mean 14 points from 12 games is crazy! i was talkin to my mates in english lit class and we were all like "what's goin on with spurs?" they said that the team just needs to get their act together and start takin' wins at home like, it's not rocket science right? 
but u know what's even crazier? danny murphy is still hopin for a comeback 
he thinks thomas frank will turn things around and that the team just needs a bit of luck. i think he might be onto somethin' tho... they're finally gettin' some top players back in, which should help 'em pick up some wins 
but still, it's not lookin good for spurs this season

. They need a win, but not just any win, a convincing one . It's been ages since we've seen them put on a show at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium 
. Danny Murphy saying there's still hope is good, but it's also true that things don't always work out like you want them to 
. The return of quality players will definitely help, but Frank needs to find that magic formula . It's a shame we can't see more of their games, especially at home, or we might be able to gauge just how bad it really is . Still, 14 points from 12 games isn't the end of the world... yet 
.OMG , I'm like totally surprised by Spurs' home form being so bad 
! 14 points from 12 games? That's not even a single point per game! But you know what they say: "when life gives you lemons, make lemonade" 
. Danny Murphy and Thomas Frank are trying to spin it like everything is gonna be alright 
. And honestly, I'm rooting for them! 
It's not all bad news - the squad is getting some top talent back from injuries 
, so that's a plus! If they can just catch a break with fixture scheduling and get some consistency going, I think we'll see Spurs turning it around 
. Fingers crossed for them!

Fingers crossed for them! man... tottenham's home record is like something outta a bad dream they're literally getting torched at home and it's just... i feel for dan murphy tho, he's right that frank's gonna turn things around, these guys are top-notch players but seriously, 14 points from 12 games is crazy. you'd think with the talent they've got, they'd be doing way better it's like they're not even utilizing their squad properly or something... anyway, i'm gonna keep an eye on them and see if murphy's optimism pays off

They're going through a tough time, but I think it's great to hear from Danny Murphy and Thomas Frank that they still believe in the team's potential It's true, having some talented players back from injuries could make a huge difference 
️ And with Frank at the helm, who knows? Maybe he can whip them into shape soon The only thing I don't like about this situation is how much pressure Spurs are putting on themselves to perform It's a lot of stress for fans and players alike, but hopefully they can turn things around soon

I get what Danny Murphy and Thomas Frank are saying, but Spurs have been in tough spots before and bounced back, right? The thing is, their home record has been a major issue since the summer, so what's changed now? Are they really getting the quality of players that they're talking about or is it just PR spin?

The thing is, their home record has been a major issue since the summer, so what's changed now? Are they really getting the quality of players that they're talking about or is it just PR spin? I'm not sure I agree with Danny Murphy on this one . 14 points from 12 games is actually pretty low 
. I mean, we're talking about a team that's supposed to be competing for top four spots and Spurs are struggling at home . It's not just about luck or the quality of players . They need to sort out their defense first 
. Wolves have only 13 points from 12 games so I'm not sure they're in a better position than Spurs 
. And what's with all these 'we'll get things right' quotes? It sounds like Spurs are trying to convince themselves more than anyone else . Can't we just have a honest conversation about how bad things are for once? I think Danny Murphy's optimism about Spurs' home record is understandable, but it's not all sunshine and rainbows, you know? 
They're still bottom of the table after 12 games, that's a tough spot to get out of. The quality of players they've signed up this season hasn't quite lived up to expectations yet, and their home form has been abysmal. It's easy for Murphy to say 'just need luck with fixtures', but when you're as far down the table as Spurs are, every match is a massive ask. They can't afford to slip up now. Still, Thomas Frank does have some decent players in his squad and they've shown glimpses of life in their last few games... maybe Murphy's right, maybe things will turn around. Fingers crossed! I think it's pretty interesting how Danny Murphy and Thomas Frank are still holding out hope for Spurs' home record. 14 points from 12 games is definitely a concern, but at the same time, you can't deny that they've had some tough fixtures so far. The fact that only Wolves have a worse record behind them shows that there's still room for improvement. I mean, the quality of players they're bringing in will definitely make a difference - it's not like they're getting anyone of that calibre mid-season or anything . But seriously, it's all about confidence and momentum now. If they can just get on a roll at home, they might be able to start turning those results around. The problem is, who do you pick to make the starting lineup? Do you go with the usual suspects or give some of the younger lads a chance? Either way, I'm intrigued to see how things play out over the next few weeks! I'm low-key shocked they're not doing better at home lol... 14 points from 12 games and I'd think they'd be in a worse position . But you know Danny Murphy's always been a Tottenham fanboy so what does he know? Still, Thomas Frank's got some good experience under his belt, maybe that'll turn things around. The squad's getting stronger too, which is a plus ️. It's not all doom and gloom just yet... Spurs can still make a push for the top 4 .

. frank's a decent coach but he's got big shoes to fill after murphy left . maybe he'll get it right eventually, but 14 points from 12 games is still pretty pathetic . and yeah, the quality of players they're getting back might help, but it's not like spurs are going to be contenders anytime soon . just don't expect them to start winning at home any time soon
