So no comparisons til we've played 9 games then?Did Sherwood even get 8 games before people were savagely criticizing him? I'm very happy to talk win% after 8 games, but I've already said I'm not going to do lot of comparisons till the end of the month.
You forgot to use Microsoft Excel to showcase the graphic - deemed VOIDDon't worry guys, I've crunched some numbers too
Cheers MFF. I'm waiting till Hallow'een before I start the 'clueless Tim' and the 'Prince of Pressing' comparisons.
But I will say now if Tim had had the win % Poch has in the Prem, I think he would be getting a lot rougher ride than Mr P has had so far. Sherwood was never given a chance by many Spurs fans and I'm still fuming over his treatment on various forums by many posters.
I'm going to judge based on where we are at the end of the year. It makes no sense to judge any sooner.
Don't be a bitch... Judge now!
Brief judgement. Liking Poch. Time to build his squad / ideas would be nice.
West Ham Boleyn Ground 0-1 - Big win.
Limassol Antonis Papadopoulos 1-2 - Nice win.
QPR White Hart Lane 4-0 - Great performance.
Limassol White Hart Lane 3-0 - Nice win.
Liverpool White Hart Lane 0-3 - Shit
Sunderland Stadium of Light 2-2 - Okay result / okay performance.
Partizan Belgrade FK Partizan Stadium 0-0 - Okay result / poor performance
West Brom White Hart Lane 0-1 - Shit
Nottingham Forest White Hart Lane 3-1 - Good win
Woolwich Emirates Stadium 1-1 - Good result / Performance
Besiktas White Hart Lane 1-1 - Poor
So'ton White Hart Lane 1-0 - Great win.
Man City Etihad Stadium 4-1 - Good performance
Pros:
Mason / Kane / Rose look tidy and Lamela is improving. Lloris is god like.
Negatives:
Strikers can't score, centre backs still dodgy.
This is basically it, nobody can post anything until next game now, nothing to discuss, our centre backs were looking ok until Poch replaced Jan with Fazio though... in fact you are totally wrong you tiny dancer
Nah, the melt nature of the whining of the fan base is really bothering me. Too many people bleating and moaning about too many different things. At this point I like cheering for Poche and the squad because they piss so many of our own fans off.Don't be a bitch... Judge now!

I haven't said it's maeaningless, cos I don't think it is and I thank MFF for bringing it to our attention. Sherwood was being called all sorts of names after 8 games, so why shouldn't Poch be judged as well. Indeed Poch has actually had 13 games including the Cups, and it was unlucky for us 13 against City, but that was partly becuse of poor management by Poch. Had Sherwood made as many errors as Poch did on Saturday, he wouldn't just be being judged, he'd be tried, convicted and sentenced to 'internet death' in Spursdom by a whole pack of baying 'supporters'.Where is Gross / Ramos / Santini?
Or did you just want to make Poch look like the worst?
Poor trolling from Mr Fact!
As everyone else has said. So early it's meaningless. A couple of wins and suddenly OMGZ BEST MANAGER EVER!
Chirches / Kaboul / Fazio have all had a "dodgy moment" or two. (75% of our centre backs excluding Dier)
Dodgy.
Case justified.
Next.
Living in Canada, it's rather expensive to regularly do that. The fans are more an online issue. Too many people buying into various media agendas and then perpetuating that bullshit as if it was a personal cause. They should just go pick a different team. Liverpool seems more to their tastes.It has been like this for a while. Get yourself to away games / 1882. Eradicate the whiners from your life.
