Thomas Frank reaction: Spurs boss on Cristian Romero injury, blown lead, home loss to Villa<\/p>\n

Thoughts on the game? \u201cIt was exactly the game I expected it to be. Very tight between two good teams. I think overall it could\u2019ve gone either way and a draw would\u2019ve been a fair result. They scored two goals from outside of the box in moments where you cannot expect them to score \u2014 two goals from almost nothing. We could not do that. I think overall actually the performance was very good against a good team.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cristian Romero injury update: \u201cMinor, minor adductor I think. He had been feeling it a little bit the last few days. He was supposed to be fine, he wasn\u2019t. I think it will not be big.\u201d<\/p>\n

Difference in game? \u201cWe started well with good intensity. We had maybe four or five very good transition moments where we need to get something and we didn\u2019t. Villa scored out of nothing and that was the difference.\u201d<\/p>\n

How do you fix home form? \u201cIt\u2019s just win\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tottenham Hotspur boss Thomas Frank got a great start to Sunday\u2019s home Premier League match versus Aston Villa.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":91074,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[42,43,40,38,41,39],"class_list":["post-91073","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91073","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=91073"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91073\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/91074"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=91073"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=91073"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=91073"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
