The BBC Radio 5 Live Football Daily panel were discussing what now for Tottenham and Thomas Frank.
Tuesday’s 2-1 home defeat by Newcastle leaves them five points above the relegation zone.
"I'm just looking at the bench and most of them are just kids," said ex-Newcastle goalkeeper Tim Krul.
"I feel for Thomas Frank in this way, but ultimately it's a whole season. There are 12 games to go.
"Is this enough time for somebody to turn this around and cement their Premier League status? This is not a stadium that should be in the Championship, but this is where it's at. The decision makers will wake up with a headache if they don't make the right decision."
Former Spurs midfielder Michael Brown suggested that if Daniel Levy – who left in September – was still chairman he would have been making contingency plans "weeks ahead".
He then wondered if Ryan Mason could have a third spell in interim charge – referencing the success Michael Carrick has had in a similar role at Manchester United.
"Ryan Mason stepped into that before and he knows the club," said Brown.
"Is he somebody who they get in just for a change of voice just while they have a little look at the situation if they're going to make a change?"
When asked if Mason would want to come in just for the short term, Brown added: "He'd go for even three games in a heartbeat."
