Ah-HAAAAAAAARomero is injured so that decision was taken out of his hands, we don’t know who would have played had he been fit
The goalkeeper plot thickens

I don't disagree but what's "strongest" changes on SC from game to game. See my last post, above.
EDIT: We lost so its an issue. Bah.
Why did poch play kane on the first hand? Lamela and ali as a number 9 doing fine thn why change it in order to accomodate unfit harry kane??
Well, I guess we half disagree. To call it arrogant seems a bit OTT as you've no idea what the decision was based on. Personally, I'd have picked Lloris myself but I'm not entirely sure it would have made a difference to the result. But we lost, so there's a stick to use I suppose.I wouldn't use the grumblings of forum fans to determine our first XI. Lloris is our number 1 and captain. Pochettino's decision to not play him (whether it would have affected the game or not) is a bit arrogant imo.
I'm not.But seeing as the comments were on here it seems reasonable to point them out.I wouldn't use the grumblings of forum fans to determine our first XI.

THIS!
What my whole gripe about Poch is absolutely this. You've summed it up. Poch is absolutely incapable of instilling the winning mentality that he keeps going on about.
We have comprehensively beat United, Chelsea, Liverpool and Arse this season, but make those games trophy related games or title deciding games and guaranteed we'd lose them.
Give me Simone, Conte, Kopp any day over Poch. Heck I'd even take Dyche!
Any of those would easily instill the mentality we lack. You can't beat those teams in the league and consistently lose to them in deciders and then turn and say we need better players. It makes no sense. It's almost an insult to the players that beat them previously. Almost shameful if you ask me.
The problem is for some brains, success is a very binary thing, trophies = success, everything else = failure.Great post! We're all gutted about the Utd result, but let's not lose perspective about our progress. We're light years from where we were a few years ago. We've had to literally claw our way back from decades of mismanagement. And we're actually competing for the top prizes now. That's a change!
Exactly. For all we know there could've been an agreement between Poch and Vorm that he'd play the domestic cup matches. He only missed out last time because he was injured....you've no idea what the decision was based on.
Has his head been turned? Some of the phrases he is using make him sound like he may leave.
Just read those quotes this morning, feel even worse now. Surely there is no way he doesn’t lead us into the new stadium?
Lets hope he doesn't dip into to SC to read some of the shit that's been written about him on here...
