Thomas Frank is many people’s favorite to be the next Premier League manager sacked. In that scenario, there’s now an obvious replacement in Oliver Glasner. <\/p>\n

When Thomas Frank was appointed as the new head coach of Tottenham, there was a sense of excitement in the air. Frank had done a marvellous job at Tottenham, and his step up to a bigger Premier League team was a long time coming. <\/p>\n

However, a few months into his spell at Hotspur Way, it’s fair to say it hasn’t gone to plan. After several bizarre lineup selections and randomly throwing players under the bus<\/a> unnecessarily, Tottenham fans haven’t been this disgruntled since, well, last season. <\/p>\n

So, naturally, what better way to go about it than sack Thomas Frank, right? What’s so good about keeping a manager and giving them the time to overcome adversity? That’s so 2010. <\/p>\n

Tottenham’s best Thomas Frank replacement is hiding in plain sight<\/p>\n

In the likelihood that Tottenham decides to part ways with Thomas Frank, an obvious replacement has just opened up in the shape of Oliver Glasner. <\/p>\n

According to a report from Bruno Alemany, Oliver Glasner will not renew his Crystal Palace contract<\/a> when it runs out this summer. It is believed that, due to their knowledge of this, Palace is already looking at his replacement. <\/p>\n

Obviously, this news pertains to Tottenham fans. The section of fans that wants Thomas Frank gone<\/a> might look at Glasner, and for obvious reasons, declare him fit enough to coach Tottenham. Heck, he sure has the credentials.<\/p>\n

Oliver Glasner has already won the FA Cup and the Community Shield with the London team. If that wasn’t impressive enough, Glasner also won the Europa League with Frankfurt before joining Crystal Palace. <\/p>\n

If there’s one word that you could use to summarize Glasner’s career to date, it would be overachievement. That’s a compliment of the highest order, by the way. <\/p>\n

Glasner plays the beautiful football that Thomas Frank was hired to play. However, he one-ups Frank with his impressive record of winning trophies. <\/p>\n

Now, the confusing part. The small print that we have to enlarge. Oliver Glasner is under contract until the 2026 summer, and as far as Crystal Palace is concerned, they have no reason to end that relationship early. If anything, they would want to prolong it for as long as possible. <\/p>\n

So, do Tottenham ride out the poor form under Thomas Frank, knowing they can get Oliver Glasner in the summer, or do they jump ship now?
