Tottenham Hotspur's latest defeat to Fulham has thrown more pressure on the team's manager, Thomas Frank. The turning point in the match came when Guglielmo Vicario committed a costly mistake, allowing Fulham's Harry Wilson to score a stunning goal that left Spurs fans stunned.
Vicario's error was nothing short of artful, with the Italian goalkeeper's hesitation in dealing with a cross resulting in Wilson slotting the ball past him with ease. The goal was a masterclass display of clinical finishing, and it was clear why Wilson is being touted as one of the Premier League's top players.
The incident has raised questions about Vicario's defensive capabilities and whether he is up to the task of playing at the highest level for Tottenham. With Spurs struggling in mid-table, Frank will be under pressure to respond to this setback with a win in their next match.
As Joe Hart and Danny Murphy pointed out on Match of the Day, Vicario's mistake was not just a one-off error, but rather a symptom of a larger problem that needs to be addressed. The Spurs manager must now consider whether Vicario is truly reliable between the posts, and how he can improve his defensive performances.
The pressure is now on Frank to right the ship and get Tottenham back on track. With a big game looming in their next fixture, the team will need to regroup and refocus if they are to make a push for European qualification.

. Vicario's mistake was sickening 
, but it's not just him, it's like the whole team is having an off day. I mean, what's going on with their strategy? They're supposed to be one of the top teams in the league and they can't even take care of a simple cross 
. Frank needs to get his act together and sort out those defensive issues ASAP 
. Can't have him slippin' up like this again, or it'll be a tough season for Spurs 
.
i mean, you feel like they're always under scrutiny, no matter what happens. it's not all Vicario's fault though, Guglielmo's been playing well in general and that one mistake just happened to be a really bad one 
. i do think the problem runs deeper tho, if joe hart and danny murphy are saying it's a bigger issue than just 1 mistake... maybe frank needs to look into Vicario's training or something? and can we pls talk about how stunning that goal from wilson was tho? 
Spurs fans are losing it after that crazy goal against Fulham 
- the hesitation, the misjudgment... it's like he knew the ball was coming and just froze 
. Harry Wilson's goal was insane, no doubt about it 
It's time for Thomas Frank to make some tough decisions - does he stick with Vicario or look for a new keeper? 
Either way, it's gonna be an interesting ride at Tottenham 
!
, he's clearly having an off day, but it's gotta be said that Spurs' defense is like a sieve right now 
. They can't keep relying on the keeper to bail them out every time they mess up. Frank needs to take a hard look at his team's setup and figure out what's missing. Maybe they need to get some younger blood in there, or work on their set pieces... idk, but something's gotta change 
. Can't keep expecting Vicario to single-handedly save the season 
.
! But seriously, it's got me thinking - can we really trust our goalie? 
, like what was he even thinking? It's not just about the goal, it's about the mental state of the team right now... they need to bounce back from this ASAP 
. It's not all doom and gloom though, Spurs have had some great players in the past, so I'm sure they can turn it around 
️!
can't believe that vicario cost them the match like that 
. Can't have players makin' mistakes like that in the Prem when you're tryin' to qualify for Europe 
It's gonna be a tough one to bounce back from this loss 
... that goal was just devastating 
, but it made me think - what can we do to prevent similar errors from happening in the future? 
... just a thought 
. I'm not surprised he's being touted as one of the Premier League's top players.
. And Vicario's mistake was just a symptom of that bigger issue
