Thomas Frank hails Mohammed Kudus’ impact in central role during Spurs’ win over Everton

Mohammed KudusTottenham Hotspur manager Thomas Frank has praised Ghanaian midfielder Mohammed Kudus for his influence in a more central role during the clubs 30 victory over Everton on Sunday.Kudus, who has been one of Tottenhams standout performers this season, was deployed slightly differently in the match, operating closer to Xavi Simons in the middle of the pitch, a tactical tweak that caught the eye of both Frank and spectators.Speaking after the game, Frank explained that the change was deliberate and designed to make use of Kudus creativity and ball control.I sometimes try to change it a little bit, tweak it a little bit in the game, Frank said. Having Kudus a little bit more in the middle, together with Xavi Simons, could create a little bit of an overload. I thought there were elements of something good, especially in the first half.While Frank stopped short of confirming that Kudus would play centrally in future games, he admitted to being pleased with the outcome. Its not like its going to be a definite and hell play there all the time, Kudus, but those bits in it I liked, he added.Kudus has continued his fine Premier League form, contributing assists and dictating play for a Spurs side that remains unbeaten away from home this season.
