Thomas Frank reveals what pleased him most in Tottenham’s 3-0 win against West Ham

Wait 5 sec.

Tottenham Hotspur bounced back with a 3-0 victory over West Ham United on Saturday evening in convincing fashion.Spurs were left licking their wounds into the international break after a disappointing 1-0 defeat to Bournemouth saw their unbeaten start to the new Premier League campaign come to an end.Tottenham headed to the London Stadium without a win on West Ham turf since 2019, when Jose Mourinho led his side to a 3-2 win.Thomas Frank made changes to his side with Mathys Tel and Lucas Bergvall coming into the starting eleven with the Dane possibly having one eye on Tuesday’s Champions League curtain raiser against Villarreal.Photo by Justin Setterfield/Getty ImagesTottenham were dominant against West Ham UnitedTottenham were certainly hard done by when they thought they had scored the opener 20 minutes into the match when Cristian Romero headed home from Mohammed Kudus’ corner.The joy was short-lived when referee Jarred Gillett immediately blew his whistle having adjudged Micky van de Ven to have pushed Kyle Walker-Peters, with VAR failing to overturn the soft decision.Second half goals from Pape Matar Sarr, Lucas Bergvall and van de Ven rounded off a comfortable win over the Hammers leaving Thomas Frank delighted with the display of his players.The Tottenham boss believed his side were clear winners and highlighted the importance of his coaching staff focusing on set pieces, something which has drasticaly improved since the Dane succeeded Ange Postecoglou.He told Sky Sports: “It was a clear, deserved win. I think the first 20 minutes were more even. West Ham had a few crosses flashed across the box, but after that we dominated clearly.“I’m happy that we continued that in the second half. We scored a great first goal and an even better second goal.“We’re focusing on set pieces. It’s an important area to be good at. You need to be important in all areas and today we thought we had a chance there.”“I felt we were brave and wanted to get on the ball. I thought we were aggressive too. That’s the foundation to try and win a football match.”What a magnificent header from Lucas Bergvall! 🤩The 19-year-old has his first Premier League goal in style! pic.twitter.com/Bc8lSaoD1y— Sky Sports Premier League (@SkySportsPL) September 13, 2025Lucas Bergvall took his opportunity with both handsWith Frank deciding to start Bergvall in place of Rodrigo Bentancur, who had experienced a lengthy commute from international duty with Uruguay, it proved to be a shrewd move.Bergvall was impressive against West Ham and scored a well-deserved goal to double Tottenham’s lead, with his headed effort being the first time he has found the back of the net in the Premier League.Tottenham have lacked depth to their first-team squad in recent seasons and now with Frank having the confidence to rest players and knowing there is real quality to rely on, hopefully it means players are not put through the same physical demands as to what they experienced under Postecoglou.READ MORE: Five things we learned from Tottenham’s 3-0 win over West Ham UnitedThe post Thomas Frank reveals what pleased him most in Tottenham’s 3-0 win against West Ham appeared first on Spurs Web.
