Pochettino's prank on Danny Rose.

[dimiSpur]

Just read that Rose has revealed that Poch pulled a cruel (but hilarious) prank on Danny.

Danny's words:
"So I've gone to his office, he's sat me down and said I've got something to tell you."
"I said what is it and he said we've accepted a bid, we are selling you. So I said no you're not, and he said yeah it's true."
"So then one of the other coaches has walked in and said have you told him he's got to go."
However Pochettino eventually came clean on the prank and informed the youngster he had heard a rumour at MK Dons' 4-0 thrashing of Manchester United in the League Cup.
Rose added: "But then after that he told me he was at the Milton Keynes game the night before against Man United."
"He heard a rumour that I might have had a chance at being selected and later on last night (Wednesday) the England manager called me and verified it."

Brilliant sense of humour

I don't get it.

ok, you have to completely ignore a sentence in the OP for it to make sense.

Good to see that level that he genuinely likes the players and can have a joke with them. Doing it that way you can tell he was delighted for Danny to get the England call up and knew how much it would mean to him.

Liking Poch more and more.

I wonder if this is where being a former player helps as he will know what it means to represent your country whereas perhaps AVB would have seen it as more of an annoyance?

It would be even funnier if Rose buys a paper the next day and finds out he's been sold to MK Dons.

the punchline must have been "we have to let you go" for it to make sense, i presume.

I think it's the way Danny tells 'em.

 

[Lilbaz]

The really funny thing is when he tells the next player they're sold and they think they're off on international duty.

Or even worse, Man U.

Although witty and an insight I don't really think its very professional for Danny to be sharing office discussions with the worlds media.

Okay.

No offence @dimiSpur, but that makes a helluva lot more sense than your OP.

He wasn't divulging our top secret training methods or tactics.
