Race for the Top 4 - 2018/19

Meh no surprises there the results going as expected.

Not picking on you personally, yours just happens to be the post that broke the camels back so to speak. I've seen several posters say this. Is there a growing opinion Pochettino should be sacked?

I don't think Poch should be sacked, but neither did I think Redknapp should have been sacked at the time. However, the capitulation in 2012 was enough to convince Levy and Lewis to sack him, and whilst I think Poch seems to have a far better relationship with Levy than Redknapp ever did, there is a precedent here. I'd love nothing more than for Poch to have a successful end of the season and to continue to build his Tottenham dynasty as years go on, but he is far from blameless in this whole saga.

We can bang on all we want about Levy failing to invest in the team, and I think the events of the past 12 months (especially letting Dembele go without a replacement) have been infuriating. But we've witnessed an extended period of time in which players are making sloppy, individual mistakes and have been wasteful in finishing their chances - that suggests a there are issues with either coaching or player mentality (or both). On this issue, the buck stops with Pochettino.

TBH It certainly sounds like you want him to be given his P45

Why am I so nervous about others' games for shit sake!!

Poch has got us to at least a CL semifinal and the top four for at least three consecutive seasons. He’s banked more good credit than any Tottenham manager in the last three decades. Even if we don’t qualify for CL next season, he gets more time. Only a rinsed out, sun dried ballsack would disagree

Knees stopped flying all over the place early this morning.

Ask the same question about Chelsea, Arseanal & our little club.

We're all in a mini league trying to discover who's the best of a bad bunch.

More like trying to find out who's not the worst of 4 poor teams. (As of late for us anyway)

Yep he's made some mistakes but I want him to get the opportunity to learn from them.
