The Mauricio Pochettino thread

[Seafordian Spurs]

You are all insane. Take a step back from your keyboards. Look at whose tweet was posted and then begin your backpeddling.

Also, pretty sure we all agreed to stop posting anything from that clown on here this summer. Let’s adhere to that. The guy is a faux news aggregator and an amateur hack who writes his own spin on spurs news.

Dicky Ball Sack. He's certainly an amateur.

Remember that time when people thought we had Tottenham back because we beat palace 4-0, lol good times

And yet:


It should be clear that he's been paying the press nothing but lip service for ages now.
"Are you going to such and such?"
"Sure, why not?"

Shuts down the questions, he's still here, and somehow grown men are still getting upset over an arbitrary question from a parasitic Spanish vulture. Seagulls and Trawlers.

If anything gets him pissed off to the point that he wants to leave, it'll be that after all this time, and all he's done, he's still getting these tedious questions, and Spurs fans will still doubt him.

He has more than enough credit in the bank.

How about no Premier league away wins since Jan son ? So no, it’s not just fucking Newcastle. The teams an absolute mess.

Unfortunately they keep conveniently forgetting that this is a continuation of that form nothing has changed that's not to say it won't, but I can see it being turned around now I think the rot has set in personally but of course would like to be proved wrong.
There has been various excuses put forward for last seasons form this year I would imagine that our players have pre European championship on their minds along with the 1985 broadwater farm riots still effecting the player's which is of course understandable.

But can he play DM for us that is the question

You jest, but this is really the biggest problem for us right now. A proper destroyer to protect the back 4. Not rocket science.

Yes I know but I'm jesting because one it's ridiculous that it hasn't been addressed and two because I'm trying to inject some humour to break up the gloomy feeling.

Agree. Levy won’t sack him yet as he will have to pay a fortune, and especially when he could be getting a big fee if another club like Madrid came in for him. That’s a ridiculously big swing in money terms. Levy will sit tight and expect Poch to improve and get us back into the top 3 but for the first time I genuinely think this is Pochs last season and I have to say again for the first time ever, I’m fine with that.

The only way Levy pulls the trigger is if we are well off the pace by December.

I agree. We are actually in a really difficult position. I suspect it will go down to the relationship between the two men. I’m guessing we will be hearing of more meetings between levy and Poch in the coming weeks.

Levy won’t want to sack Poch. But it will come down to how honest Poch is with him on what’s going on with the squad and with him personally.

Could go either way. It’s replacing him which is the biggest decision this club has made since embarking on building the new stadium. It’s a massive decision we can’t get wrong. DL will know that and won’t be rushed into a decision I reckon.

 

[dontcallme]

Put Mourinho in charge and we'll see Sanchez start over Verts every week, Wanyama and Dier form a double pivot in DCM and the football will be turgid. Mourinho's era has been and gone.

Wanyama and Dier are going to do what to me?

Well said. There is a lot of gloom. Maybe because the Foxes game was three days ago but I'm pretty sanguine about things. We are who we are. The new stadium was%is a big deal.

That 86/87 team that lost the FA Cup and finished third. Pretty much prefigured my love of Spurs since and epitomises us.

Could be worse we could be Everton, Watford etc..

 

[wadewill]

If I was a betting man, right now, I would have West Ham to finish above us all day long.

Give that some thought

 

[The Doc]

Oh give it a fucking rest. You would spin a positive out of Spurs going into administration. Pochettino has answered a question last night once again saying he would be open to move to Real Madrid one day. The way the club is in a state right now, this is the last thing he should be saying. Ricky Sacks tweeting this doesn’t mean it’s any less concrete. He said it you idiot!!!!!

Something is definitely awry when Yankspurs is being rinsed for being too positive. Lots of noise around but it will all go away if we put a few wins together. Poch still the man for me, but if he moves on, so be it. 5 + seasons at the same club (esp Spurs) is not normal and we'll miss him when he does actually leave.

Could be even worse... My Dad's (and by extension, my second) team, S****horpe, are circling the drain of the football league right now, and if they drop out of the league they will be at very real risk of doing a Bury.

We're just struggling for form. We don't really have problems.

 

[Shadydan]

Yankspurs positive? Hmmm ?

Yes agree obviously I got further back with spurs due to being an old git.

Maybe you need to give it some thought. It’s a stupid opinion.

Well at the moment they are playing alright and if they played us would definitely win right now, it is a bit soon became they are not the most consistent of clubs they could finish 5th this year then 15th next year.
But how ironic would it be to see us fall away and they take our place maybe in the short term they would hold street parties over it, but again this is something we have brought on and allowed to happen in reality we should not be talking about them and us in the same position but the fact that we are shows how much of a rut we are in.

That it's probably for the best that you're not a betting man?
