Tottenham Hotspur Women's new head coach Martin Ho is taking inspiration from men's boss Thomas Frank. Ho, 35, named Frank alongside Pep Guardiola and Eddie Jones as coaches he looks up to.
What inspired Martin Ho?
He highlighted Frank's clarity as a quality he wants to replicate. Ho said: “Thomas Frank was a big inspiration in terms of clarity – he’s very clear on what he wants, he’s very specific on what he wants and he gets the best out of players with that.
Why it matters for Tottenham Hotspur Women
The team finished second-to-bottom in the WSL table last season, but Ho is excited about the club's ambitions. | Category | Stat | | League standing | 5th in FA WSL, 36 pts, 11W-3D-8L from 22 games | | Goals this season | 35 scored, 38 conceded (-3 goal difference) | | Title race | 19 points behind leaders Manchester City W |
Ho wants his trademark on the side to be intensity, character, personality, and bravery. He added that he wants the team to be front-footed and consistently stepping forward.
What comes next?
Ho's first task is to improve the team's performance and get them back on track. With the league expansion next season, Ho believes it's the right time to come back to the WSL. He praised Tottenham's ambitions for their women's team and is excited about his role in growing the women's game.
