With our next 3 games being United Liverpool Arsenal. Every single combined xi will have more spurs players against all 3 of those teams. If we were to fail miserably would people start to question Poch? Not saying sacked but seriously question. Honestly interested to know peoples feelings.

No.

The only way I will be upset with him is if we manage to get zero points from those 3 games.

I always question Pochettino, I don't think he is a flawless manager. And if we get nothing from any run of three matches regardless of opposition, I don't understand how Pochettino can't share in the blame. However, it has nothing to do with "combined teams", that means nothing to me.

So if we lost all 3 or got a couple of draws you’d be fine with that? If not who are you blaming Poch ? Players ? ENIC ?
Wh would you blame anyone? We are playing 3 top teams that are quite considerably richer than us.

This is what football is all about. Let’s see what happens before asking silly questions

Why must there always be someone to blame?

Because that’s how life works? If someone fucks up on a job then they are held accountable for it, the buck has to stop somewhere doesn’t it?

Do you live in a fairytale world where nobody should be blamed or held accountable for anything?

You are quite sensitive though mate so it wouldn’t surprise me if you think that’s how the world works, not everybody wants to live in a world where they get their belly scratched for doing a shit job.

It's just a nonsense question to ask. If we don't win in 3 games you don't just start questioning the **** in the same way when we are top of the form table (like now) you don't start lauding him as the best manager in the world.

The phrasing of the question is silly I agree, if by “questioning” it means questioning his capability of doing the job and questioning his employment status with us I would say that’s ridiculous, he has been the best manager (certainly in my lifetime) and he has earned the right to have more time than 3 bad results (if it were to happen.)

That being said, people would have a right to be upset and ask who is to blame for 3 bad results in the same way I would have a right to ask who is to blame if someone jizzed in my egg fried rice at the takeaway.

The manager is to blame for a loss in the same way he is to be congratulated for a win. Shit happens, if we don't win in 3 games it will be Sissoko's fault anyway.

Why would anyone question him wrt to results against clubs with greater resources than us?
If we were getting regularly turned over by clubs with less resources then he should be questioned.

But are you just classing bad results as losses, or hammerings?
Theres no shame, and not really anyone to blame if we lose matches to these clubs but put in good performances.

That’s the thing, if we had repeat performances against teams like Southampton for the remainder of the season then his ability to do the job should be questioned.

That being said, it won’t happen imo so the question won’t need to be asked.
