My opinion has been consistent whatever the result as it should be. And it is hardly a contentious view point to claim that our manager is not one of the games best or that he has weaknesses. No one is trying to claim he isn’t a good manager or that we haven’t progressed under him. My opinion is that he is being elevated above his level by many, that’s hardly something to become upset over.

And that single goal came against us! Well that's another nail in pochs coffin!
ochsulk:Other forums and to other supporters but nice investigative work cluso.
Yeah, and how good were those players before he came in? Everybody were screaming when Rose signed and extension and nobody thought Jan could defend. We were being torn apart by every top side when Poch came in. Fuck off back to your cave you troll
I prefer Columbo, you’re still full of shit
Dembele was outstanding in his first season, Vertonghen made PFA team of the year in his whilst Hugo was outstanding from the word go. Have these players progressed since then absolutely but to try claim that he didn’t inherit a side that had talent whose worst finish was 6th was simply absurd. And yes we were getting beaten by the top sides that’s what happens when a manager gets sacked and interim is put in place. If I am a troll so be it, I would readily take that than be the precious snowflakes that you and some others are when it comes to differing opinions.
Such debating skills up there with other zingers as you’re wrong.
You being full of shit isn’t up for debate.
As with our manager, at least you are consistent.
Guess you’ll be hanging around until we string a a couple of wins together.
Rumbled, you’re good at this.
Clouseau, Clueless.
You finally got me, on a spelling, but finally. Well done, does that mean you will stop following me around now?
Your spelling is atrocious and I’m certainly not following you around. Don’t hide behind the ‘discussion board’ door and then complain when you get challenged. Your pseudo intellectual bullshit makes me laugh to be honest.
I think its easy to forget in the whirlwind of Pochettino's arrival and the progress we've seen that as well as having a young side this is still a young manager as well. Say what you like about Wenger, he's still a wily old cunt and he did a number on us today. They pushed their front three onto our back three then found space behind the wing backs, and it caught us out. Like others have said, its very hard to win at these places. For that matter look at our record at home to the top sides last year, its a two way street. The thing is that so far this manager has risen to every challenge. The team got tired near the end of his first seasons, now they finish strongly. His favoured pressing game came up short on occasion and he developed alternatives. Players who didn't shape up have been cut loose and young ones have developed tremendously. All that says this is a manager capable of responding to challenges. Judging by his face at full time he's going to be working on it that's for sure.
I spelt Clouseau incorrectly oh the horror. And you know full well you do, every time I enter into a debate that Joe Clash notification pops up. Now if you had anything of note to add I wouldn’t mind but it’s largely ad hominem or endless complaints about how I shouldn’t be saying such a thing. It has now seemingly moved onto spelling.
Listen I want my viewpoint challenged, I want differing opinions to mine, I want debate. What I don’t want is this mindless drivel you and some others engage in, It’s tiresome and unproductive.
Obviously we need to improve away against the top 6, but I dont believe this is what stopping us from winning the league, for instance the team with the best record against the top 6 last season was Liverpool, and we lost 2-0 today, last season the champions lost 3-0 in the same fixture.
My opinion is that he is the best manager we've had in my memory (I'm 35, so we'll say since 1990).
Would you trade him for any other manager we could feasibly have? Or is it the fans waxing lyrical that you object to?
Wouldn't trade him for anyone, I think some people forget we simply cannot compete with the likes of city and Chelsea when it comes to financial doping, if we took the money away from the other "top" 6, and made them do it the hard way then I have no doubt we would already have won the league.
