No, supporters should stop trying to think like Chairmen

Something you clearly did years ago.....
Best thing for me is he wins the dressing room and develops youth.So it seems Pochettino is the one.
I'd be pretty happy with that. Like what he's done at Soton and his attacking style will suit our options.
Also help Lamela which is a bonus.
I can only presume that you been have watching a different group of players to me. Take Eriksen and Loris out, and you are left with complete averageness. Apart from the two I mentioned, can you honestly see any of the others playing for a top four side. Perhaps Vert, but that's only when he feels like it.
No, we don't attract the top managers, and this is why. One miserable league cup in how many years? A chairman that any self respecting human being wouldn't want to work with. A NET Kitty of zero £s. The only reason any manager would come to us is for relatively big wages.

I'd love to see him bring any of Lallana, Ward-Prowse, Louvren or Lambert with him. Developing youth is a hallmark of his. But we have a pretty youthful squad as it is.Best thing for me is he wins the dressing room and develops youth.
Link?So it seems Pochettino is the one.
The bold is exactly what excites me about him. I want FdB but I think we'll get the MoFo; MoPo. Having Prem experience is a bonus too.I'd love to see him bring any of Lallana, Ward-Prowse, Louvren or Lambert with him. Developing youth is a hallmark of his.

I've grown on the idea of Poch massively. Prem experience is a big plus for me. I wanted LvG and would have been happy with FdB. But Poch is on a par at the very least with de Boer.
No links as such. Just the number of ''sources'' saying so and it all seems a bit more concrete than the stuff said about de Boer. Could be wrong of course but I generally trust Greg Stobart who's put up an article today explaining Spurs' position.Link?
Cockney rhyming slang - possiblyI'm all for a bit of good banter, but that's when it's just that, good. This one makes absolutely no sense.
Betting odds giving 1/3 for Pochettino to be manager. 7/2 for FDB.
I entirely agree that it's sensible to take the emotions out of it once in a while to take a look at what's happening. But if you've left all semblance of being a supporter behind you years ago, to the extent that you no longer have any understanding of what it means to support your club, then you are one of the very reasons our stadium has turned to shit and you should be fucking ashamed of yourself. I really don't know why there is this sub-breed of fan 45+ years of age who go around with such arrogance that they think they know the game and out club better than everyone else. People like you disgust me. You think you're the fucking experts because of a few extra years of supporting, but you're just contributors to the cancer that is the "negativity under any circumstances" stench that runs through our fandom now. I just thank my lucky stars that I know plenty of mid-aged fans who don't behave like that.Absolutely, and that comes with maturity. The fact that where I sit in the Lane, the people around me are the same. We want our side to do as well as anyone else, but we watch football with our eyes wide open, and don't wear blinkers. I don't think our club is as big as some people think it is, and I certainly don't think our players are as good. As long as we have a chairman who's only idea of a good season is when we make lots of money, don't expect Spurs to win anything.

So some people want Poch because they're excited about him working with our youth and doing what he did with Soton, and yet a lot of people moan when Bentaleb was starting week in week out, not having a dig just curious to the way of thinking.
