The man needs a break from football.
100% - break from football.
Good manager - absolutely. But totally wrecked.
Needs a year off.

No, he was excellent already, they have had a record low # goals conceded thanks to his service. Yes he wasn't nominated for awards but you need to be internationally visible for thatAt Southampton he was merely a good defender with high potential
Eh? Majority of them we sold, and were sold to worse clubs than Liverpool (Palace, Saints, WBA, Stoke, Bournemouth etc). Why would a player want to go from Pool to shit like Palace if not forced by Klopp? He's clearly written them offAll of those players "thrown out" were either loaned out multiple times as we had to do with our deadwood, left for free at the end of their contracts, or were sold because a club actually made a bid and the player actually agreed to go there

We don't know either how far he could develop under another manager, do we?
Does he actually have any info on it because opinion wise his head is well and truly in the sand imoJJ has been posting and he is far too positive about Poch - he is going no where!
I'm not missing the point, I've completely hit it.
We can speculate on who's at fault for different factors all day long, but he's responsible for coaching, motivating, preparing and picking the team that he has at disposal now.
It's not been good enough for far too long now, and this current group is capable of a lot more.
Yeah, but do you think it's because Mauricio cannot improve the high potential players?Anyway this is digressing from my main point which once again was about our players under performing.
It's not a world class squad, feel like everybody overestimates our team on here.
Our fullbacks options are poor, our only hope on that front is the 2/3 we haven't given enough of an opportunity to know what they're capable off in Foyth/Sessegnon and possible KWP.
Lloris has been steadily getting worse, he's not world class.
Our CB's have aggressively aged, Unless sacking Poch unlocks the curious case of benjamin button then I can't see how we improve that.
Our DM's are not even an iota of what they used to be.
We have some quality players in Ndombele, Lo Celso, Kane, Son and then a few the tier below in Dele, Lamela with some showing signs of potential in Sanchez but we do not have a world class squad by any stretch of the imagination.
Although we still should be doing better than what we are.

Injuries aside, why is it that other clubs buy players and use them immediately? Why is it that other clubs’ players can play with a level of intensity and pace that we can only dream of, and yet we’re supposed to believe our manager demands too much? I see nothing at Spurs other than a demoralised group playing without any sense of direction. Forget ENIC, this is all about Poch.

I think that's one of his clear strengths - if he gets the right material in. He's taken Walker, Kane, Son et al to another level in my opinion
He is always spot on with any views IMO, he is the best we have and the comments he is making tell me Poch is going nowhere!
Lots of excuses and reasons why the manager is not the issue.... I genuinely think JJ is the mouth piece for levy at times which is great as it gets a message out but I truly see what he says as bang on, he isn't often wrong..
Look at Dybala even this summer, he called it when on and instantly off before anyone else...
Ndombele - spot on!
he knows his stuff
Have to agree with shady here. VVD was a excellent defender at Southampton but he was relatively under the radar. Many many people on spurs forums said he was an a crap CB, I rated him really highly. Liverpool came in for him eventually and the rest is history but what other clubs were in for VVD at the time? Nobody was really fussed about him.
Klopp has many average players and some very talented players playing at their maximum. No way Fabinho and Winaldum and Henderson are as good as they are now under a different manager at a different club. It’s all down to Klopp. Conversely we have many talented players and some average players playing like absolute Rubbish, because of Poch.
and to anyone blaming ENIC. Honestly, they aren’t responsible for the mess we see in 2019 on the pitch. Levy doesn’t set the tactics or coach the players. He delivered Poch two major targets this summer and Sess who clubs like Man United wanted. We may need some work in certain areas like fullback and DM but you can’t tell me this team is only good enough for 13th. We should be walking top 4 this season.
I hope Poch is sacked tomorrow morning. It may happen. The plan JJ is talking about selling wantaways in January and signing loads of new players is absolutely ridiculous. Who on earth thinks up such rubbish? We can’t trade half the squad in one window and on what basis does Poch deserve such backing when he’s led us into such a mess in 2019? It seems some people actually have blind faith in Poch. Blind faith in a manager who has never won a single trophy in his life and led us to the most defeats of any team in the league in 2019. A manager who has lost the entire squad. Mental.
How can you prepare and motivate players to be better than they are or as good as they used to be?
he’s deluded mate. There is no way he can be so positive about a manager who has led us into such disarray. We are a mess. I think JJ is just a huge Poch fan and can see no wrong in him.
