Is it just me who finds it a bit ironic that people who howled against the likes of Real Madrid and Manchester United arrogantly thinking they could just spirit Pochettino away mid-season are now down with the idea of us trying to do the same to Atlético de Madrid?
That's leaving aside the small matter that Simeone trousers over £18.3 million-a-year after tax while Pochettino, easily the highest paid manager in our history, earns £8.5 million-a-year before tax

My choice is not even on there..
Carlo Ancelotti has won just about everything and has worked with some of the biggest names in the business. He has premier league experience and demands success.
He would gain instant respect and wouldn’t have a problem dropping under performing prima donnas.

This thread can fuck off.
For me to be to be the one posting this is something considering I am a massive Pochettino fan. However it looks like the end and while there is a part of me that still thinks he can turn it around it’s probably just blind optimism.
I do want to say a big big thank you to Poch. You made strong, gave us belief and took us far but I suppose all things come to an end. It’s hard to see a way back for Poch and also a way back for some of the players who have been so disappointing.
The season is not over and if we are to recover either Poch needs to get his mojo back and the players play properly which is doubtful or we get someone else in and hope the players start performing again which is more likely.
We have to look to the future and be positive. There are some good managers out there and with a good manager and a proper clear out of players who ain’t good enough or don’t want to be here we can start again.
I don’t care if people think I am a dick for posting this straight after the match, I want some grounds for positive thinking and some debate on where we go from here even if you still believe Poch can turn it around.

If we do change Managers, we need one who's won something.. We usually get managers who have won nothing.
Barton would be a gamble.
Was it a mouth watering prospect to replace Claudio Ranieri at Leicester?
Managers don't give a shit about what the previous guy accomplished, they give a shit about the resources they're going to have to accomplish things themselves.
Top managers will look at Tottenham and say "wow, that's a job with great potential", and go to Daniel Levy and say "give me 100M net each of the next two summers and I will catch City and Liverpool"
And then Daniel Levy will thank the top manager for his time and press the button under his desk to release the hounds.
Howe.
If an english manager is going to make the step up to a big club, then a big club has to give him a chance. We should be that club.

Just stop this bullshit
Italian newspapers say that Allegri could go to the following destinations, all top clubs: Real Madrid, Totthenam, Manchester United and PSG (I had forgotten). Certainly today's Totthenam, although it can spend less than the other three, is considered a top team and Italian newspapers talk about it with respect. Certainly the presence at the stadium has intrigued ...
Was it embarrassing when you wanted half the squad and chairman to fuck off?
Well if it’s who should be next then Guardiola and Klopp are missing from the list. If it’s who will be next then Bruce, Solskjaer, Sherwood and ‘arry are missing.
