Tottenham fans are enthusiastic about the appointment of a new coaching staff announced by head coach Frank Thomas, who will be appointed as Tottenham Hotspur's new manager.
Thomas formed Tottenham's new coaching staff, focusing on the coaching staff who assisted him in his previous team Brentford, because they include people who are greatly loved and supported by Tottenham fans.
Justin Cochrane, who fostered young players at Tottenham Hotspur Academy in the past, was brought in as the head coach. Tottenham fans see Cochrane as the right man to take Tottenham's prospects to the next level.
British media TBR Football said on the 14th (Korea time) 'Tottenham fans are very excited about the news that Coach Cochrane will be back in the team' and expressed their fan sentiment about the return of Coach Cochrane, who was in charge of fostering promising players at Tottenham in the past. In some ways, it seems to be receiving more welcome than Thomas.

Earlier, Tottenham replaced coach Enze Postecoglou, who led the team for the past two years and achieved the fruits of winning the UEFA Europa League (UEL) in the 2024-2025 season. Postecoglou led his team to fifth place in the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2023-2024 season, his first season in charge. As he said, he also won the title (the Europa League) in the 2024-2025 season, which is his second year as a vice president.
However, in the process, he had the worst league record (17th), so he failed to keep his position despite his winning performance.

Frank immediately formed a coaching staff to assist him, most of whom were with Brentford. Among them, there was a person familiar to Tottenham fans. That's Cochrane's head coach. Cochrane was also the head coach of Thomas at Brentford, and is expected to play the same role at Tottenham.
Tottenham fans welcome Coach Cochrane because he has been a coach for Tottenham for a long time in the past. He has led the Tottenham Academy for 10 years from 2009 to 2018. Since then, he has served as a head coach at Brentford since 2022 after serving as AFC Wimbledon (senior coach) and Manchester United (Academy general coach).
Coach Cochrane said on his SNS after his return to Tottenham was confirmed, 'I don't know what to say because he will return to where he first started (coaching) in 2009. I'm very happy to be back at Tottenham. Tottenham gave me the first job as coach, and now 16 years have passed. I've worked hard and qualified, and I've become influential wherever I belong. I can't wait to get to work. I came back. Let's go together!' delivered a lively message to fans.

Tottenham fans welcome Coach Cochrane like this because he has successfully cultivated numerous prospects at Tottenham in the past. When he was at Tottenham, he was recognized as a 'cultivation expert', developing numerous prospects such as Noni Madueke, Kyle Walker-Peters, Jaffett Tanganga, Oliver Skipp and Josh Onoma into star players. He also raised Lewis Hall and Tino Livramento for the England national team.
During his time at the Manchester United academy, he won the FA Youth Cup for the first time since 2011, and used Alejandro Garnacho and Kobe Mainu in the final at the time.
Tottenham fans' expectations exploded because of such a brilliant nurturing history. Just in time, Tottenham is full of talented prospects such as Archie Gray, Lucas Veribal, and Mikey Moore. If they grow into star players under coach Cochrane's guidance, Tottenham's power is likely to be further upgraded. Because of this expectation, Tottenham fans are praising Cochrane's return. Attention is focusing on whether Coach Cochrane will be able to take Tottenham's prospects to the next level.
