I liked this:

It’s not fair to compare and say Liverpool is going to be an inspiration for us.

No. It’s the opposite. I think Tottenham is an inspiration for the rest of teams in the Premier League or in England because with less in everything you can fight. That is for me, that is my idea.

Get in Poche.

One of the things I expect he and Jesus discussed was throwing away of the form book for the final and destroying our attack, dazzled by star power presumably . A counterproductive quality when making team selections imo .

It's hard to move on from a dismal final showing. Poch must've felt fated to win it, and the 3 weeks prior sounded special. Such a flat performance. Gotta re-up, but lifetime opportunity lost, possibly.

I had just got over this. Wiped the slate from last season. Now I’m wallowing again.

Poch got over it by throwing multiple darts at his Michael-Owen face dart board lol.

 

[Sarsipius]

Actually it was by checking his bank balance. Then he laughed his head off.

No that was me, except that it's a Carragher/McManaman face dart board

McManaman?

What did he do to incur your wrath? (Aside from being an ex-Liverpool player natch).

It’s his utterly biased commentary. Mind you, the only commentary I actually liked was Capital Gold circa 1988-92
