That's good news, no?
Or are you trying to be clever and allude to the idea he'll not get to a final with Tottenham?
Don't worry, I know the answer.

It doesn't look good. But do you really think, he didn't want any players for 2 or 3 windows (don't even remember how long our transfer ban was)? I think our stadium project had an impact on incomings.
This is tiresome.
It wasn't, and never did work for us.
Go back to the first post of our exchange (the one I dissagreed with)... You made some horseshit claim that everything was rosey under Poch and you're refusing to attribute ANY responsibility to him for how bad we've been playing.
Whilst Toby had his big injury Sanchez (*) & Jan formed a formidable partnership. Go research what followed in terms of Toby's form, contract dispute and how Dav had been marginalized ever since. Ditto Davies/Rose.
(*Side note... 40m spent to develope our future CB stalwart. Peeps complain about no investment, but Poch equally clung to the old guard.)
Fan opinion of KT in this scenario is irrelevant.... Poch called the shots.
Poch is not Teflon, mate... Get real.

I just can't see it. We almost lost a chance of a trophy today
Cute, but you're being inconsistent whilst showing signs of denial and have already shown to be closed minded about our new manager.
That's bullshit. I said I didn't mind us changing manager at the time, cos Poch wasn't showing results. But I NEVER wanted Mourinho "save" us.
Playing 23 Prl games and 8 Chl games last season is hardly writing Sanchez off.
I think we can assume (well at least, I can) that the boffins can do their measurements correctly and draw those VAR reference lines perpendicular to the touchline. This takes out angles and the sideways perspective. If they can't then there's no hope for VAR.
The arms/shoulder debate is a separate one where the body parts (and which one is chosen) are referenced against the perpendicular lines.

Yes I'm biased. Unfortunately nothing Mourinho has done has changed my mind. Do you think Mourinho will succeed here?
Well the worst did not happen out of the Cup at first hurdle. Jose showed the difference in approach to F A cup to Poch by playing the strongest available team. We had the most possession we have had for a while and should really have won it. Having said that cannot be happy/confident about the future. Really dreading the Liverpool match. They rested all of their top players and still won. Whilst I did not want Parrot to start, thought he should have come on towards the end to allow us to hump the ball up to him to see if he could create anything. Hopefully Lo Celso and Lamela now fit enough to start. Son a disappointment.
do we really want to go (back) to Wembley
The lines are very poor reference points as there's no guarantee they're straight. The line they're standing on looks like there's a kink in it. The 'boro player looks onside to me.
Dier has his left foot in the lighter green strip. Their forward is in the darker shade. Anyway it’s certainly not clear from that picture.
Surely it’s to early to tell yet? Time will tell
Where? Point me to where I did that? I have done no such thing whatsoever. I said that ifGuido 🇺🇦 is right and Jose is past it then it's the board that hired him so they should be blamed for the failure.
I still think it's too early to judge and I still think he was the right hire as things stand.
Can't find the post in question, but I'm happy to conceed I'd misinterpretted it given the underlined statement.
That's not what I'm doing tho'... It's not making excuses. I'm simply highlighting that the club has experienced steady growth under their ownership against a backdrop of radical financial doping by two teams in our league whilst also coming up against other notably richer teams.
Most of the criticism against ENIC is how much they spend on players; yet winning a battle of the cheque-books against 5 richer clubs is an awfully big ask and to outright expect success in the form of trophies given that landscape is to deny the circumstances of the league we compete in.
I've taken so much enjoyment and pride from our club over the last 15 years.... It seems sad to me that a section of our fanbase have spent to bulk of that time pissing and moaning; claiming things to be "unacceptable", "embarrassing" and such.

True. But Poch rarely used his strongest squad in the lesser cups. And I'm sure there are a lot of opinions about that.
No.... Not a sure thing. Just your loaded pre-conceptions about our future.
Yet the guy you refuse to see any fault in ACTUALLY lost against Colchester having spent £140m to top up a team of CL finalists....
(See; anyone can play your blinkered game....)
