what makes you think that if we go 1-0 down to a team, and they put 11 men behind the ball that he can make this unsettled team be able to cross the ball better, or shoot better.

shit happens, and on the day Newcastle managed to block every cross bar a few and Kane and Moura missed the chances, on another day they don't and we go onto win the games

Let it go mate, he's gone now.

I love Poch with all my heart but I feel a manager like Mourinho could be precisely what we need. An arrogant, cut throat, smug bastard who is win at all costs. Everyone hates us anyway. Why not go all in on it and thrive on the hate? Bring it on.

Ive had enough of Audere Est Facere lets try THRIVE ON THE HATE

The way he treated that physio was disgraceful, that was what pushed him into scumsville, he’d previously just resided in momma you old tosser town.
I agree using the words and insulting her was disgraceful. All I will say is that we don't know what was going on behind the scenes, plenty of rumours that players were slagging Jose off with her and she was undermining his work. And with PL football being a high pressurised situation ppl say bad things.

How many times has Mourinho been sacked and paid off.

It is a very sad state of affairs that we're not looking past Mourinho.

he signed a loan contract with a view to a permanent move. sacking a manager he wanted to play for, doesn't mean he wants to play for Mourinho
No he signed to join Spurs. Our league finish this season determines the level of obligation we (not him) have to make it permanent

Every manager gets sacked and paid off. Unless you're Guardiola.

It's not sad that we're apparently going to hire the most successful manager since Ferguson.

Don't see it lasting long. In fact, wouldn't be totally surprised if Levy already has someone else in mind that he has more chance of getting next summer in case the wheels really come off early.

Why?

Benitez - under contract and a similar mould but less successful than Jose.

Ancelotti - under contract and IMO his relaxed approach no longer works. Napoli going backwards under him and Bayern players wanted him out for being too relaxed.

Nagelsmann - Would cost millions to buy out. Not only that but he'd need to adapt to the PL pretty sharpish. He's the sort of appointment you make with forward planning and at the end of the season. A caretaker manager until then will be disastrous.

Howe, Favre, Ten Haf, etc etc - see Nagelsmann.

Poch - keep Poch on? If the players have stopped playing for him and fighting then we could be in serious trouble.

But we should look past the only available manager who is one of the most successful ever and he's not even 60 yet!

that was probably the noise re nagelsmann, just took charge at leipzig but we're sounding him out for a few years time

he signed a loan, or they would have mentioned he had signed a contract for a length of time after. if he doesn't want to play for Moaninho, he will do what others have done to Poch and not turn up even when selected.

do you honestly think that GLC, Lamela, Gazzaniga, and Foyth are going to be happy their compatriot has been fired

Do you think they're gonna care, they're not kids ffs Poch wasn't their daddy. They'll get over it and play well for the good of their career.

they've all played under non-argentinian managers before, as much as i'm sure they enjoyed playing under pochettino, i dont see any of them running for the door.
