    Yeah, and the likes of Son, Kane and Dele are collectively flipping Levy the bird too by taking more and more of his precious money every time they sign new contracts!

    The Mauricio Pochettino thread

    Is that a hint of sarcasm I detect??? Not exactly fully accurate, I distinctly pointed out that I want us to win every game, but that if people rightly or wrongly would sacrifice a match for what they believe to be the long term benefit of the club then it's a little harsh to dismiss them as...

    Please find me one single post where I have said I want us to lose?

    Well you could, regardless of his feelings toward the board he could have enough respect for the club and fans to not to make THFC look stupid until after he's left. He's hardly been frozen out or treated unfairly. If he'd wanted to leave but the club refused to negotiate then I'm sure he'd be...

    The Mauricio Pochettino thread

    So you can't engage in a reasonable exchange of views, and yet I'm the numpty? Ok guy on the internet, guess I'd better just bow down to your superior intellect, you've provided quite the detailed rebuttal after all...

    One of the more baffling things for me, why does he wait to be away with England to say this shit? Like, does he think it won't get back to the club or something???

    Some semi good news

    I'd be fucking delighted with a 5th place finish, it would imply that at some point we're gonna start winning more often than not again, and could give us some momentum to take into next season.

    The Mauricio Pochettino thread

    So you'd disagree with the notion that Poch has always preferred athletes over flair players, and graft over craft? It's the exact reason why Toby once said that without our superior fitness we were nothing, and now sure as shit, without higher fitness levels we look inept. Perhaps with...

    The Kyle Walker-Peters Thread

    Call me crazy, but if he'd had more exposure to first team football during the last few years, he might not look as nervous as a 40 year old virgin on the pitch now.

    I mean, the only way I can see Bale being relevant to this thread is that he was also a left back, amirite???

    But I bet if any of the bigger clubs that he thought were into him when he was hanging on to Walker's coat tails were after him now he'd be off like shot. Guess Watford being the only rumoured interest must have been a reality check.

    The Mauricio Pochettino thread

    Tbh, and I know this may sound like revisionism at it's finest, but even at our peak the style of play was a lot of huff and puff, and when it worked it really worked, but we still had plenty of frustrating games where we just couldn't break through. Sometimes it maybe seemed more scintillating...

    Some semi good news

    Is super computer available to come in as manager? It seems to hold the current squad in much higher regard than the present one...

    The Mauricio Pochettino thread

    It's more like 15 months of shit performances though, start of last season the excuses of WC and we always start slow were readily accepted by most, and most expected that the performances would improve to go with the winning so all was ok. As it transpired though performances didn't improve...

    The Mauricio Pochettino thread

    Christ, I'd just about forgotten how embarrassing it was for a supposed top side to turn up at City and show less ambition (and technical ability in fact) than a non-league side would have. Cheers...

    The Mauricio Pochettino thread

    Surely any idiot can see that onfield success would provide more chance of making substantial profit from a future sale? So why exactly would Levy and co not want onfield success? Plus if they were only after sale profit why haven't they sold already? Didn't they pay peanuts compared to the...

    On the bright side I'm no longer annoyed about dropping 3 points at home to Newcastle, there's no way those points are gonna cost us CL.

    It's ok though, he's well primed to have a worldy in his next game, even Martin would be almost guaranteed a clean sheet!

    The Mauricio Pochettino thread

    I don't get your point then, are you blaming our board for not backing the manager and getting rid of the unwanted players or are you blaming Poch for not making them so desperate to leave that they would take a step down?
