Thomas Frank claimed it was business as usual at Tottenham despite intense speculation over his future before Tuesday's visit of Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League.
A 2-1 loss at home to West Ham on Saturday pushed Frank towards the exit door, with Spurs supporters chanting "you're getting sacked in the morning" following an eighth defeat in 14 matches.
Frank claimed to have "the trust of everyone" in the post-match press but it is understood talks have taken place at Tottenham over whether they should cut short his tenure after only seven months.
Ahead of the visit of Dortmund, Spurs boss Frank said: "I have just been feeling the trust along the way. I have said that after every match.
"I had lunch with Nick (Beucher), Johan (Lange) and Vinai (Venkatesham) today, so all good. I know it is part of the media circus and the only thing I am focused about is tomorrow.
"As long as we win football matches and make sure we do that, win enough, then everyone will support us."
Asked if he had been given any assurances or clarity over his future during that lunch, Frank said: "I think it's a nice question.
"I haven't heard any situation like that in football where they say 'hey, mate, if you win tomorrow, no problem. If you lose tomorrow, no problem'. We had a good conversation about life and football, the future of the club, everything normal, like you do.
"Of course, there's a little bit, how would we say, stormy weather out there. I just think it's an extremely good sign, because normally people are running away if there's bad news or bad weather coming, they're normally not coming in and being friendly for lunch.
"I think if your back is against the wall, you fight. And that's what I do. I'm energetic, I fight and again, it's not about me.
"We need to win football matches and we need to win football matches together. And that's what it's all about. We planned well, we are ready, we are focused for the game tomorrow and the players look good."
Frank's options are extremely limited with Radu Dragusin, Yves Bissouma and Conor Gallagher all ineligible, while Micky van de Ven is banned and Joao Palhinha is ruled out. Spurs also confirmed Ben Davies had surgery on a fractured left ankle on Monday.
Tottenham were already without Rodrigo Bentancur, James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, Mohammed Kudus and Richarlison.
Mathys Tel is also unavailable due to Dominic Solanke's return to fitness, which meant Frank had to pick between the duo after Tel was initially left out of the club's Champions League squad, but put in as an injury call-up last month.
"It was not a nice decision to have to make. Unfortunately that's football, you have to make a decision. With the way the rules are, the only option was either Dom or Mathys in the squad," Frank said.
