That’s not what I said. You what to be certain of the league title next season you would need to be signing Messi and players of that standard. Even with a big window we would still be only approaching Liverpool and still be miles off City but we would have a higher chance of winning something.

So what exactly do you want from this window?
Players that will get top 4?

I thought people lost their shit with the owners because they wanted to challenge the elite and we needed huge investment to do that.

I’m asking you when do people start to ask if the manager is good enough, if he gets everyone he needs and we still scrape 4th and win nothing

You sound content to be a nearly man as long as we sign players?
Surely finishing worse off with a stronger squad isn’t ok?

At the moment he’s by far the best coach we could get. In a hear he maybe won’t. But so is football. Nothing is for sure.

Not the point....I’m asking you at what point is the manager responsible for the success of the team?
If he builds the team he and everyone seems to want, and fails suddenly we can’t compete with City and Liverpool.

But right now, people are demanding we do just that
 
Football management is so easy. Sign who i want for the amount i want to spend and we'll win things. If we don't its either because Poch is shit or Levy secretly didn't do what Poch wanted - probably due to some Jewish stereotype.

I'm going shopping. So there. :allitongue:

The board should do what the manager wants. As long he meets what they want from him. The board wants top 4 and as long Poch does it he’s safe and sound.
 
Too many people have been sucked in to the theory that football only matters if you win trophies, it’s fucking sad. This is the best performing Spurs team of my lifetime by quite some distance

Just answer the question.
Poch is given the players he asks for and the money is spent, and we keep the players he wants to keep.
We finish 5th.

When do you look to the manager?
Ahhhh it was the new players first season?

So next summer we scream for new signings.....because, you know, City and Liverpool are eeeeeeven stronger now.
Transition again, win nothing and it’s never Pochs fault.

Sounds like failure is fine all of a sudden......who’d have thought it

What context?

Back Poch in the window, spend big, pay them what they want....

Do that, we win nothing, and it’s still on Levy?

Players need time to settle, look at Son & Sissoko. If we spend big this season but don't win anything I won't be calling for Poch's head. I mean it took both Liverpool and City a few seasons to get it right.

If we consistently spend like a big club, but don't challenge for big cups like a big club (nothing changes we just "scrape top 4") over the course of a few seasons then yes its time to look at Poch.

I can’t imagine a scenery were Poch gets the players he wants and finishes out of top 4. Unless some crazy injury crisis out of this world.

You don’t like loads of our players, you clearly don’t like Pochettino. Don’t be so negative man. It’s a great time to follow the club.

Don Giovanni Don Giovanni ? The x?
