The Mauricio Pochettino thread

[Deleted member 27995]

Moving into a new stadium, CL footy, many on world cup duty so will more likely tire out or struggle with lack of pre-season, Manager speaking publically about the importance of getting signings in early, if ever there was a season to invest in the squad it was this one, if the wheels come off this season there can only be one person to blame and it's not Poch.

Making excuses for a man getting it wrong? You're just as bad as those who defend Levy to the hilt.

Tired of reading this trite shite.

Levy screwed it before a ball was kicked and now Poch is fucking it up on the pitch.

Not good enough from either of them.

Maybe the black signifies the club /DL are dead to him...?

go elsewhere then, nobody forcing you to read it, at least that I'm aware off, personally I'm tired off people moaning about people moaning, but whatever floats your boat...

I know times aren't great, players seem jaded from WC, team isn't performing, didn't get any signings and stadium is behind but this talk of Poch being on the way out is crazy imo. Cast your mind back to when Madrid were sniffing around and he signed a new deal, everyone was cock out and all was well with the world. Yeah its been a shit few weeks, no way am I thinking Poch is losing it though, I'm frustrated as fuck but keep some perspective guys.

If you can't accept that both are to be held accountable then I'll continue to point out when people are typing trite shite.

You can have an opinion, I can comment on it, the beauty of a message board in all it's glory ... Who wuda thunk it?

I don't even know who you are. I didn't know you were stalking my posts in such a way.

Bit creepy, innit?

Anyway, while my team under performs in every aspect of football and business I'll leave you with this cracker of a joke - don't forget to think about it.

Tea is for mugs.

toodles!

Ultimately, he has improved us so much. He has been great for us. But....has he taken us as far as he can? He certainly hasnt been helped by Levy.

But is he a winner? Im not so sure at the moment.

I don't ever, for one minute think he was bought to the club to be a winner. Levy might have thought it would be nice if we won something but that was never Levy's modus operandi. He wanted someone who wouldn't stand up to him, someone who would toe the line. I have never truly convinced that we could win with Poch, unless he was supported all the way with money. Even that season that never was with Leicester winning the league always felt that it was one step too far for us and Poch. Thing is I think his ego has got a bit too big for someone who has won fuck all in the game. The book sold the deal for me. Loved the guy for what he has done for us but now feel there is an air of inevitability and think he will go.

Felt the subs were wrong, especially the Kane one, it's not a shock to see we conceded to a corner after Kane was excellent defending them.

stalking no, reading your usual sarcy shit on a forum yes

Yeah I'd say stalking ...

Have a word with yourself.

 

[TheVoiceofReason]

He certainly isn't magic this season, more black magic the way he dresses now as well.

True. He’s dressing like a the head bartender at a Pitcher and Piano these days.

How many fingers have you got left now? ?

Stalking...don’t be absurd. It’s a public forum.

Talking like he knows me ... ?

Nah.

When's the last time we dropped 3 straight under Poch? Feels like ages ago.

We have'nt lost 3 on the bounce under Poch

SSN said earlier that 2014 against Arsenal was the last time we lost 3 games in a row

 

[St José Dominguez]

They may not know much about train schedules but I reckon a cow would’ve made better in game decisions than him today.

 

[DanielJohnCosta]

He is clueless on subs. He will say he is brave. But he is clueless acting smart. So long now this same chronic problem keeps biting us.

literally the only good thing we've had in decades

As a fan one's perspective is everything when following Spurs so some still feel optimistic right now despite what we have seen the last few games while most are rightly pissed off. Levy polarizes opinion and quite rightly so as there is no doubt we stood still when others strolled on by new Stadium or not.

But if you put perspective aside for a moment and actually look at what is going on it seems we are all on a different planet to Poch all of a sudden.

Over the last few games most everyone on here and pundits and Commentators could see that at times the shape we played was not working or that the substitutions were odd or in today's case quite bizarre. (Lamela for Winks killed our momentum and Kane had been on for 89mins why not leave him on to at least defend corners.) The high press has disappeared all of a sudden whether due to fatigue or tactics.
Its obvious Kane is just not right at present yet Poch persists with playing him despite the fact when he was injured last year we coped well enough without him with Son up front. Yes we should have signed adequate back up in the Summer but thats a whole different discussion.

All of the decisions he is making seem to be going against the natural consensus. Is he trying to make a point, has he lost the plot or are we just unlucky. Fool me once and all that but Watford we threw away and you could say its on Poch maybe? Liverpool we just didn't show up so that on Poch in terms of motivation. But today if you watch it back was almost as if he threw it away and that leaves me wondering if we can all see it why cant he. After all he is paid a fortune to be an expert when at present it looks quite the opposite. Winner or not I like Poch and what he offers but something has changed since the Man Utd game and I just hope he sorts it out sooner rather than later otherwise we are all in trouble whether we can see it or not.
