Strange one to compare. Poch started all ruthless, then went the other way towards the end. Although he didn't have many options. Again, there seems to be some debate that was his choice. But there's no doubt poch was flogging dead horses at times when it came to form.

I think the main difference is the squad size and depths and Levy seems to trust JM with the transfer budget. Along with his ruthless team selections.

Poch was an amazing man, I doubt anyone could have done better to build what he built he just couldn’t get the trophies

no one doubts Jose won’t win things at Spurs, it feels with hard work it’s going to happen! It’s a big thing no one will question Spurs not getting trophy’s sadly all poch got was “but they haven’t won a trophy”!

Which is what we're seeing happen at City also, sometimes teams and managers just come to an end of a cycle and the managers words aren't as powerful and the club needs a refresh. If Poch was coming into the club at the similar stature that Jose had then maybe he'd have got some trophies over the line, who can say and we'll see what happens with his next move.

I absolutely love having Jose at the club, I think he's the best possible manager we could have for where we are as a club but It's getting tedious reading people undermine what Poch did for us as if there's seemingly no way to lavish praise on Jose without doing so.

Yes. Even Jose when he started talked with lavish praise about poch and the foundations he had built. As you say, 2 different sets of circumstances. Not really comparable. Pochettino still has huge potential as a coach. I've no doubts he will have matured his approach and we will see him win things.

I think Pochs biggest problem was he was a bit naive in continually publicly stating the cups dont matter. They do if you want to build a winning mentality.

Hopefully not in this country. Otherwise he'll have to settle for more runner up spots

Equally, it's boring and somewhat ridiculous when people (fans and pundits) undermine what Jose has done thus far and say "But if Poch...".

Did I do that?

Not exactly, but it was a half-presented statement - it goes both ways. People do it all the time.
