That’s the problem though. Not everyone can just move on and forget it.
He said himself that he had never forgotten what Spurs fans said in 2014 when he got a new contract.
Could say there was no point talking about that but he did anyway.
That interview is never going away.
You're right. It's never going away but that remains so wether he remains at Spurs or not. If he left the interview would still be brought up, if he stays the interview is brought up. "Lads it's Tottenham" still gets brought up despite hardly ever losing these days and clearly shaken off that tag line 4yrs ago, but as sure as eggs is eggs it get's trotted out after each of our 4 or 5 losses each season.
What's important is to trust the Manager. The Manger who has inserted standards and an etiquette of what is expected from the players, step outside of theses and you're history. He has made examples of other players, we will never know if he would have binned off Rose too this season, Rose's injury saw to it that he missed most of the season, but given what we have seen and heard I would be surprised if he would have played him had be been fit for the first couple of months of the season.
Either way, it's clear conversations have taken place, sometime ago too as he's never not trained with the squad whilst working on getting his fitness back. I do trust Poch to select a player who's mind is right, wants to play, is training hard, competing for his position, adding value to the team, etc..., just as I trust him not to select a player that does tick the right boxes, Toby anyone.
I hated the interview and thought him an absolute cunt for doing it, nothing has changed my view on that, but players come and go, players are good and bad, agents are snides but the Club is why we are here and I applaud the values of the club instilled under Poch, Levy & McDermott. These values stand for something and our players have to abide by them and live them in order to play for us, if he's playing then the management deem him to be abiding by them. That's good enough for me, they are there 24/7/.
Whilst we have John Cwoss, Neil Ashton & Custis and their view on Tottenham 24/7. I know who I'm backing.
