I don't mean does he care if we finish 2nd as opposed to how significant might it be as a fan if we fail to secure 2nd in relation to our thoughts on Pochettino. Try to forget that Woolwich take 2nd if we lose.
I believe Pochettino expected us to lose against Southampton. He has said very little as if to say the atmosphere around the club from last Monday to Sunday's game had taken its to. I get that.
But now the match with Newcastle, the first time in however long that we have started a match at the same time and not after Leicester takes on added significance I feel. It's a game where he has to ensure we get the right result.
Woolwich we drew when the win would have taken us top for a few hours at least. West Brom we drew when we were primed to put the pressure on again and then Chelsea clawed their way back when we could at least have hoped the useless Everton might have found some pride. The Saints game could also have seen us secure 2nd even if I understand the difficulty in that.
So on a scale of 1-10 and on a personal capacity how important do you feel it is to Pochettino that he sees us into 2nd?
