I'm more interested in why Poch was at the MK game. Was he checking on Welbeck

Although I guess it would be an opportunity to see one of our rivals playing live. With our schedule I guess they don't come around too often. Although watching a b team play might not give him the best gauge.

B-team or not, how are MK Dons one of our rivals?

Would love it if it was to look at Kagawa.

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

Spurs Saint how can you disagree. Picture the scene, Poch's office...

- Sit down Harry we need to talk.
- What is it boss?
- We're selling you to Southampton.
- Fucking yes!
- Thought you'd take it a bit harder than that.
- Done the same thing to Danny you big kidder, England here I come.
- No you don't understand...
- I'm ringing my mum.
- Wait Harry!
- Mum it's me, I made the England squad! I know, brilliant. Tell July she can put down the deposite for that house, I'm going to be making the big bucks soon.
- Harry listen.
- Sorry boss but I got to tell my agent. John you can tell umbro they can stick that boot deal up their arse. I'm a fucking international now I'm holding out for the big boys.
- Oh god Harry.
- Sorry boss?
- Nothing Harry.

Just want to grab that baseball cap and roll the peak, like it should be, like it used to be. Roll the peak, fold in the rest, stuff it in your pocket. Now you must revere and preserve them, keep them with their labels on and not allow them to be deformed even by the shape of your own head.

It's a hat, for crying out loud, it's a tool and they all look goofy as fuck no matter how you wear them. Stick a propeller on the top, why not.

Flat brimmed baseball caps with stickers still on are the absolute worst.

This is so bloody true! I went into a sports shop in New York of all places to buy a baseball cap a few years ago and all they had were those big flat ones. I just wanted a simple NY Mets one with the mesh on the back and plastic popper things to adjust it. Instead they have these elaborate buckles and a sever lack of ventalition.

Yes he was... Spoke to him after the game too apparently.

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

what was the source on that?

LOL, I wouldn't have thought so.

 

[jimmy-jojo]

Meaningless prank or shrewd psychology by Pochettino?

By all accounts it seems young Danny can be a bit of an arrogant big head. If that's true then you can imagine the England call-up would swell his head even more.

Good way to try and keep his feet on the ground, if you ask me!
