Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
Integrating academy kids into the team and levelling up young senior professionals to the next step of their careers are, in fairness, two different sorts of tasks.
It could be to do with contract obligations he has to PSG or Spurs regarding the terms of his pay offs.
Thats a claim, blame it on that slippery floor..
And it would be but the fans need pacifying. He simply has to deliver a decent manager and that manager has to finish above Pochettino next season. If he doesn’t then it won’t be a good look.
I swear it will be Rodgers in the summer.
Who else will put up with Levy's shit and have Hugo and Mason grassing back to Levy?
Doesn't seem like the best way to do that. 69% of the people here didn't want Poch to take over from Conte.......
Yes; yes he does.
It's not an significant criteria.
- We finish 8th and they finish 9th? Who cares...... It's been lame either way.
- They finish 1st and we finish 2nd? We'd still have had an excellent season....... Perhaps the tables are turned the year after?
- We've had a shit season regardless of whether the scum win the league this year or not.
What we do and how much we can improve is what's important. That's the only things that's gonna genuinely pacify the fans.
A bit like Spammer fans moaning about moving to the Olympic Stadium...until they knew we wanted it then they are all for it!!
Indeed.
Uh well that's not true, is it. Just because they may have had someone else who they preferred (some of which are now no longer available) doesn't mean they were actively against Poch taking over. Someone might prefer Nagelsmann, but deep down think that isn't happening so want Poch.
Do a poll of people who are actively against Poch joining straight up and I imagine the % will be pretty low. Poch is by far the 2nd most popular choice for next coach (41%) after Nagelsmann, who quite honestly we might as well stick Klopp in there as far as I'm concerned, he ain't coming.
Touche...... I don't explicitly NOT want Poch......... But the whole point of the poll (before it got rehashed and ruined) was to see who people wanted most if forced to choose.
(All the options in the vote were still available at the time Conte was sacked.... And that's when the snapshot was taken).
31%
JN was 29%
No point looking at the current iteration of the poll cos it's a multiple choice thing now and adds up to around 170%.

Mosy managers only last 2-3 seasons anyway. But no I’m not that bothered if Poch doesn’t come back.
There are other managers out there besides Poch. I don’t know why you’re sure anyone we get will be objectively worse than him.
I’m not convinced of this yet.
I don’t think we would be his first choice but there appear to be enough credible links. There just isn’t a lot of transparency into his thinking and to why he didn’t pursue Chelsea.
There will be enough decent managerial candidates available in summer to fill the post.
Rodgers is every bit as good as Pochettino in my opinion if not better.
More than content if we end with him.,
Who has won more?
If it's about who has won more then we should never have sacked Jose, and should've been on our hands and knees for Conte.
If you create a narrative then you csn also create the outcome.
So .. Poch was the most popular option? Was anyone ahead of him? He got 31 and Nagelsmann 29? Who got the rest of the % ???
For the majority of the fanbase, re-hiring Poch would've been viewed as a positive move. There would've been some cynicism about it, but even the cynical people would've probably got a nice glow when they saw him on the touchline.
That doesn't in turn mean the next 5, 10 , 20 years are set in stone.
