Great point and I totally agree but why does Pochettino need to leave?
Should he have the chance to rebuild a new young team?

It's as though you haven't actually read ANY of the posts on this thread, there are plenty of well reasoned posts explaining exactly what you're so baffled about, and plenty of posters torn over the conclusion they've reached for the very (somewhat ovetstated) reasons you've given for your beffudlement.

He's had the chance for some time - he's seemingly reluctant to play young players. Can we honestly say that the likes of Sterling, Edwards, Sash, Tracy, Bennetts, Reo Griffiths etc. ever really had a run out? How many PL games has KWP played in the 3 seasons he's been in the first team? 10, I think.
Some of these £100m players like Sancho are separated, in some scenarios, by the existence of opportunity.
That matters, because you have lads like Daniel James doing brilliantly where you just know that, had we signed them, they'd no doubt still be "not ready" yet. We used to be referenced as a team where young players had a chance, but that ship has sailed.

I’m still not decided if i want him to go or to stay, but to say we’ve only been poor for 8 games is simply not true, we’ve not won an away game since January, we’re lucky united are so bad that the media are more interested in them than us

I'm sure he's lovely. Just not the messiah we all hoped for. That'll teach us for daring to believe in football again

A little surprised he's still here. Mayb he's not in as much danger as we all thought.
That means we will have to witness more shitty performances from the team.
Why even wait, like seriously?

Levy isn't about to throw away 5 years of hard work an 4 years of compensation he needs to pay out
At the end of the day we need to get used to Poch staying on as Spurs manager unless we really hit the shit.

He's lucky that points wise we're not adrift from the top four yet and that everyone else has been inconsistent. If we start drifting from the top 4/6 and Levy feels that CL money getting away from him he'll pull the trigger.
When was it accepted ?

Just a friendly question here ..
When what would those that support Poch change their views ?
Lose the next two matches?
Thrashed by Liverpool?
Bottom half by Christmas?
Players continuing to disappoint?
Another diamond formation.
Or we keep him until the end of the season regardless ?
Keep playing turgid football?
Just a question for all those that want Poch supported, we may not get any incomings during the January window, it is a difficult time to get players at sensible prices.
My views chop and change continually, I absolutely loved the last season at WHL.
What a team, we dominated and destroyed everything in our path, what a season.
Now we are pretty turgid in every area, I know we had a time of no transfers but the team is so devoid of ideas now.
Lost to Newcastle, it happens - Keep Poch. Colchester, it was penalties and a more youthful team - keep Poch.
Bayern Munich, thrashed - Poch out.
Couple of days later, keep Poch, lets deal with Brighton.
Lost to Brighton, Poch out !!!
Now, more thoughts on the last year, Poch seems to be in a state of confusion over who to play or how to play.
He has a history of playing players then dropping them as soon as his favourites return, Moura for Kane, KWP for anyone after a MOM performance, Wimmer even for Vertongen ( WImmer was fantastic in that period, not as good a Verts but still dropped immediately)
I have no idea where I stand on Poch at the moment all I do know is I have lost interest in the club over this...
Sorry, that was so long.....

And how do you think that's best achieved?
Poch in or out.
I support the football club, not the manager. Not the owners. If Poch is in charge or not, if Levy is in charge or not. My support doesn't change. I'm too old now to be getting upset if someone leaves the club

It was always a pain to me, that the manager and player that came closest to playing the game the way I like to see it played, in the modern era, was Wenger and Bergkamp.
****s.
Were they all Premier League games, though?

People that are saying Poch should be given the chance to rebuild need to realise that can only happen if we maintain our recent league positioning whilst doing so. We've struggled to pull the very few players Poch will accept as is, no CL will hamper that even further. No way can we start this project again, wait another 5 years just to rinse and repeat.
