Painful ?

Yeah, if he loses at Villa, these press conferences will get even more uncomfortable for him.
I never said he shouldn't in my post. He can do whatever he likes but it comes with the effect of him not being as welcomed back here as he should be for all he achieved.His family are happy and settled here.
Why should he uproot them and move to another part of the world. Just so he doesn't upset a few football fans?
He's entitled to work in his preferred profession and he's duty bound to put his family first. I'd think far less of him as a person if he put the thoughts of a bunch of over emotional, fickle supporters that he'd never met above his family's happiness.
He will get my applause, and I'm sure many others will see it the same. It'll be a one time thing before the game kicks off and then it's done. I moved on the day he left, and barring a very brief lapse brought on by us making such a pigs ear of bringing in a manager early in the Summer, I have never wanted him to return. I'll never forget the good times with us which is why I'll show that brief moment of thanks, but I understand he's not a Spurs supporter and has a family to look after and professional goals he wants to achieve.I never said he shouldn't in my post. He can do whatever he likes but it comes with the effect of him not being as welcomed back here as he should be for all he achieved.
There might be some boos, but not really the same as with a player who might be booed when they have the ball in an attempt to rattle them.As things stand I don't recall him really referencing his time at Spurs since he took over at Chelsea. Iim sure that'll be ramped up ahead of our game but he doesn't look particularly comfortable/at peace with himself, which was always one of his key strengths in our prime. He had an aura of calm and belief in his system whereas (to me at least) it feels like he is trying to keep his head down until his squad is more settled and they hit form. Obviously he shouldn't really be under pressure but in the modern game and with the money they've spent it won't be long until it really starts to build.
On his return, I really hope we don't hear boos. I suspect there will be a bit more passion thrown into the 'keep your Pochettino' part of the Big Ange song but otherwise let's hope at worst he gets ignored and all the love goes to Ange. I was so sad when he was fired and its easy with time to forget just how incredible we were and how connected we as fans were to him in the prime. He delivered so much joy in our last seasons at WHL and handled the Wembley period so well. Managing Chelsea does tarnish things a bit, only because we felt he was ours and one of us.
Ultimately he's just a football manager who has a right to earn a living and on paper a team flush with cash aiming to buy the best young talent around is clearly an insane opportunity for him and his 'philosophy'... just hope it continues to go terribly and he leaves before any flash points occur where he really has to show his allegiance to Chelsea fans vs his history with Spurs as that will be harder to come back from (in terms of long term sentiment with our fans).
They're fucked.Their fixtures after the next international break are shocking. Arsenal, Brentford, Spurs, City, Newcastle, Brighton and United all back to back.
They have Villa (H), Fulham (A), and Burnley (A) in their next three. If they don't pick up at least 7 from 9 things will be looking desperately bad for them. I'm here for it.
Money with Chelsea and ultimately he did get trophies at PSG, both a league title and a cupHe has just made stupid choices, after moaning about being our “head coach” and not manager. He went to mentalists PSG (Where he clearly had no control) and now Chelsea, where clearly he is having no say in signings. Really poor choices with clubs, I don’t get his thinking
Yes, it was exactly this.It's funny as I've seen a lot of Chelsea fans complaining about the constant side passing and possession for the sake of possession. My memory isn't the greatest but wasn't this the problem when things started to decline with us?
I believe he is just chasing the money now. That is the only explanation I can find for taking on the PSG and Chelsea jobs.He has just made stupid choices, after moaning about being our “head coach” and not manager.

This. He needs a project at an underdog. That's his forte.Go to Spain or Germany or somewhere that’s not the elite and rebuild mate, work with a younger team again and remember what made you good. You gave me too many good memories for me to enjoy your struggling.
