Happy Pochettino day?

Hand in my Pocket

I'm short but I'm happy
I'm bald but I'm kind
I'm different but I'm wealthy, yeah
I'm sick but I'm sexy
I'm a gimp but I'm so well hung
I'm confused but I'm hopeful baby
What it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be fine fine fine
'cause I've got one hand on my pochett
And the other one is talking to Frank de Boer
I want 4th when I'm sober
Coz i'm a dwarf I just don't get laid
Another one fired but it ain't my fault, yeah
I care but I'm restless
I'm here but I'm really gone
Be careful what you wish for
I have bastard sons on SC baby

What it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be quite alright
'cause I've got one hand on my pochett
And the other one is flicking a V-sign
And what it all comes down to
Is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet
'cause I've got one hand on my pochett
And the other one is giving the wanker sign
I hire and I sack them
I don't spend coz i'm wise
I'm hard but I'm friendly baby
I'm bad and I'm laughing
I'm tight and I'm chickenshit
I'm bald but I'm pretty baby

And what it all boils down to
Is that no one's really got me figured out just yet
'cause I've got one hand on my pochett
And the other one is calling Rafa Benitez
And what it all comes down to my friends
Is that everything's just fine fine fine
'cause I've got one hand on my pochett
And the other one is holding his P45

At least we have managed to manage to appoint a manager that can manage managing the team that needs managing for a full pre season. Hopefully he'll manage with aplomb.

That said, it's not on the OS yet..
It would be so spursy if....

Sun is shining, spurs have an exciting new manager (touch wood/fingers crossed etc). Life is good :).

I think I can manage to say that our managing to manage to appoint a manager who can manage as well as Poch can manage, manages to convince me that next season we may manage under a new manager to finish higher than we managed to last season thanks to managers who couldn't manage to manage.

V Cool intro A&C , dated yourself a bit with the ' V sign' mention tho . Wha happened to the V sign , perfectly British ,going for 500 years and then Boom...a few too many imported yank tv shows and 500 years of British history down the drain .

Give someone a V sign now and they wonder what two means ffs.

BBC, ITV et al are all singing the same tune about us being in "advanced" talks with Pochottino and possible announcement this week, it smacks of official sources.

If it is Poch, why do I have a horrible feeling in my stomach that this choice has been made on the basis that someone who can speak Spanish will turn our two most expensive signings into world class players again and enable us to recoup the club's pounds next summer.

I will support him and i truly hope the fans and Levy get behind him, but something in me just says meh about this appointment and await the swingdoor to open in a few months time. Hope I am wrong and he turns out to be the next Pep or Ferguson

Not sure why that is a bad thing? What if he does turn Bobby and Erik into world class players? It would absolutely justify it. Having two or three world class players in our team is what we've been missing since Modric, King, Bale, VDV.

On the contrary, I feel quiet the opposite.

He could be the one to get likes of Lamela, Paulinho, Soldado & Sandro get going. There is genuine feeling among non-Spurs fans that Poch will be sacked in 8 months as well. I just feel this is not going to happen.

I have a good feeling about this appointment. If we can keep Lloris & Vertonghen, I see marked improvement defensively under Poch.

My only concern is with his training style. I heard its bit hard on players. If so, we might petered out late in the season, if the players get tired. I hope he uses utilizes the squad well.
