The Mauricio Pochettino thread

[Japhet]

I don't see him going with the stadium just around the corner, the CL knock out stages and us in the mix at the top of the table. Having said that, it's time to start delivering right across the board from the players on the pitch to the Board and to start realising some of the potential we have.

On what basis can you say Utd are the biggest club in the world. Most twitter followers?

When they inevitably express their interest, I hope Poch uses it to twist Levy's arm and actually back him in the transfer window. Thank you, Man United, for doing this so close to the January window opening.

 

[THX2208]

No no no...Not that I think Poch is going to go, however replacement wise Eddie Howe for me. But this is a non starter anyway as Poch is going nowhere

Eddie Howe for me too but it's a moot point as Poch will be going nowhere but get used to seeing "How Man Utd Will Lineup Under Poch" & "How Poch Will Win The League In His First Season" its media nonsense

 

[Ghost Hardware]

Well, on the plus side, I would say this increases the chance of Poch being backed in January several times over!

I think he stays. He genuinely seems to love it here, is one of the best paid managers in the game, is adored by the fans and has done the hardwork in getting us (almost) through the period to the new stadium.

People say that united offer job security, they don’t. Since fergie left they’re approach has been similar to Chelsea and managers are very disposable. That won’t appeal to Poch.

The one thing I'm sure of is that Jose getting sacked will have no effect on Levy's purse strings. Regardless of Poch being a target for Utd or not.

As much as I would want Poch to stay you have to look at possible replacements .
We chose Poch because of the job he was doing at Southhampton; well for me the manager that fits the same profile is Wagner .
Huddersfield in the premiership is a minor miracle and how he has made them play with second rate players and little or nothing to spend is remarkable . He with a club like ours could be the one if Poch does jump ship.

Eddie Howe without doubt. Imo.

Anyways. Poch is staying. I have faith.

Bigger SC meltdown than on deadline day this.

 

[1882andallthat]

Instead of Talksport doing their usual of shit stirring the pot by linking Poch to Man Utd, and they were quick off the mark this morning when Moanrinho went with predictable and baseless links why can't they do the same by coming up with similar shit by tongue in cheek linking of Klopp to Man Utd? If they love getting angry callers in biting the bait, that will be like a red rag to a bull and will draw in untold amounts of angry bandwagon jumping Liverpool fans in super quick time.....

 

[thfc1989]

Unfortunately I think this might be too big an opportunity to turn down.

 

[spursfan1991]

one of many concerns with poch leaving us is that we would need a brand new squad. A lot of these players are over performing mainly due to Poch. I can see the levels dropping if Poch left.

 

[TheVoiceofReason]

Fuck sake, what time is Poch’s press conference today?

I don't know about you but when my mum and dad sat me down and said which team do you want to support and showed me the list of potentials, the first thing i did is said.

"Show me the Forbes and Deloitte rich lists so i can make a proper decision..."

Poch won't go anywhere this year. Hopefully Levy is taking note of the speculation and making all the right moves to keep him happy.

Granted it's just one way of estimating a club's value but since "business business business" is the mainstay of everything these days then the point stands.

SC this morning ?

You know the year ends in 13 days right

 

[TheChosenOne]

Poch is tied to this club in more ways than one. It’s not as simple as him just up and leaving.

His son plays for the academy ffs. His family love London. His entire coaching staff and their families live in London. The new stadium coming. Everything about Spurs at this moment in time is in Pochettino’s image.

He has another son on the Spurs payroll too...

At the levels of money these players and to a lesser extent coaches earn nowadays, i really don't think how rich a club is is much of a factor.

And as i said above as a Spanish speaker the top teams in the world will be Barca and Real, and they would not care a jot about ££££'s
