The Mauricio Pochettino thread

[MattPhilpott]

Actually pathetic what shit people will spin to get their clicks...

We could win the League Trebel, and the papers would say “Spurs players and Pochettino set to leave for big clubs after impressing this season”

Vapid, lazy journalism...

Sorry @Hercules but don't have that emoji.
I know it's not the ITK thread so is it alright to question you about what it means

Oh my fucking God. Not even 24 hours have passed & the press have already started plotting his escape. I bet you can't guess which particular Spanish based news outlet has started the ball rolling


Mauricio Pochettino’s new contract release clause should concern Tottenham fans

However, fans will come back down to earth with a bump when they read MARCA‘s reports which claim that the contract includes an escape clause which would allow Pochettino to depart the club if Real Madrid or Paris Saint-Germain come calling.

The report goes on to state that the former Espanyol and Southampton boss is desperate to one day manage the Champions League finalists, whilst his history as a player at PSG would certainly make a move there appealing.

Fake news

Best possible news we could hope for this summer. Over the moon Poch is here for another 5 years and hopefully beyond!

I didn't & don't read blogs. I got a notification on my phone from an app called White knight (Which I was pointed to for somewhere to watch a stream of our game against Newcastle whilst I was in hospital) . It had that story, I remembered someone saying yesterday about how long before the press come up with something about him leaving, thought it was amusing, so found it online & posted it in here.

It isn't "the press". It's some net blog. The people writing it aren't journalists.

I am totally calling him Poncho Tino from now on...

Flipping heck why does it matter?

The point was (and still is) as soon as the contract was announced yesterday, someone made a joke remark about how long it would be until someone was saying about Poch leaving. I got a notification via an app on my phone, saw it was exactly that topic, so figured there'd be no harm in attempting to show that member of the site that he didn't even have to wait 24 hours for what he said to come to fruition.

Didn't realise how wrong I'd be.

So he's on around 165 a week?

But we can't pay Toby that?!

Fucking joke. Countries going to the dogs. Enicout. Brexit means brexit. Fuming. Disgrace.

I actually don't know if you're being serious or being sarcastic?

Who's done more for the club & deserves the higher salary?

Shouldn't even need discussing.

This has probably been posted elsewhere, but I’m too lazy to check. Great read from Alasdair Gold. I’d say one of the best football articles I’ve ever read.

Obviously the sum that Poch is being paid for his new contract has been widely reported, what I'm curious about is how much the backroom staff are paid ;does anyone have info on this ?
