Would be remarkable if Poch turned down Madrid to stay with us. And would set a great example to our players. I expect we'll have an entire summer of Kane & Pochettino to Madrid for $$$$$$$$$$$$ all over the media
It depends on what he see's as a real achievement in terms of his managerial career, is it a real achievement to win La Liga as Real Madrid manager or even the Champions League? It's an expectation - just ask the manager they're supposedly about to sack having won the CL 2 years in a row how that's now regarded by the hierarchy at Real.
Poch no doubt has more money personally now than he'll ever spend and will continue to get well paid by Spurs should he stay. For me some people feel the sense of satisfaction/achievement by accomplishing something that's a real challenge (like winning honours with Spurs) as greater reward than $$$$$$$$ and inflation of their ego by being able to say 'Look I've won La Liga and CL with Real Madrid aren't I great' a la someone like Jose.
To me Poch strikes me as that kind of guy, provided we're matching his ambitions in striving to fulfil is goals. For me if he were to take the Real job he'll be taken the easy way out and a couple of years later will no doubt be gone.
Stay strong Poch! That said I could be completely wrong...
