Tottenham manager Thomas Frank admitted he was "very happy" after the club eased the pressure on him with a 2-0 home win over his former club Brentford, ending a run of disappointing results.
The Spurs boss had been under scrutiny following three defeats in four matches and a series of underwhelming performances at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Frank's decision to give Xavi Simons his first start since November 8 proved decisive, with the Dutch midfielder assisting Richarlison's opener before scoring himself in the 43rd minute to secure his first goal for the club.
