Manager Mauricio Pochettino

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports


Well I for one couldn’t get behind something like that . I did have huge affection for Poch and didn’t like the way he was let down by Levy , at least that’s my perspective. However the halo has slipped quite badly , more since he has spoken since taking the Chelsea job than the act of taking it , ( which was not exactly an easy forgive to start with}.
However there seems so much hate in the world at present , that getting vicious over a managerial appointment seems frankly ridiculous. My position has shifted from get Poch back and is now one of “ You burnt your bridges Poch and I hope you fail spectacularly “

I would never want him back now , but that’s as vitriolic as I can get over a game of football

I hope we make our game in a couple of weeks about us; not him........

Mission: Beat the chav cunts.; no further baggage required.
 
So many shitty hot takes in this thread by all the usual shitty hot take suspects. Still hope the best for him...as I do most folks that leave out the front door (though his was done constructively). Most of you folks need to grow up. Nothing he does over there affects us except during our derbies. If we are good enough on the day we will win...that's it! Most of you are just scared and behaving like children...it's embarrassing.

Why would you "hope the best" for the manager of Chelsea? You understand it's 100% possible for us to beat them every time we play them...and their performance negatively impact our league position, right? We've had a great record against City in recent seasons, yet they always finish above us.

You Poch fan boys are weird.
 
Why would you "hope the best" for the manager of Chelsea?
Because I'm a human.

I understand a lot of things...

it's 100% possible for us to beat them every time we play them
Yup, and that is our responsibility...if we don't take it then we don't deserve it.

and their performance negatively impact our league position, right?
And again, that would be our problem because we haven't handled our business. If we win ALL of our games is there anything Chelsea can do to affect us? So it's ALL in our hands or all our fault then, right?

You Poch fan boys are weird.
To be so insightful in some areas it really surprises me when you change gears like this...it almost feels willful.
 
Takes Todd off ignore, foul votes Todd, puts Todd back on ignore.

🤫
Hey cunt, stop grandstanding and put me on ignore forever...don't take me off...leave me there forever. It should be clear by now that I don't really care who has me on ignore. Seeing as I engage in good faith in all my interactions it says more about them than it does me. But this will obviate the need for these nonsense "hey look at me and give me internet points" statements by you. If you can't engage like a fucking adult then truly do fuck off.

Do you "wish the best" for Arteta and Klopp as well? Did you "wish the best" for Judas when he moved on? What about Berbatov?

No club has ever won every match, and it's laughably absurd to propose it.

I don't hate Poch. When he was at PSG I didnt care whether he won or lost. I thought having that much talent at his disposal exposed him, to a degree, as a manager that isn't able to get over the top. But it brought me neither pleasure nor pain. Now that he's the manager of Chelsea, I hope he loses every fucking match, same as Arteta. Chelsea or Woolwich being relegated is probably the most joy football could bring me outside of a Spurs league title.

When he's sacked from Chelsea and moves on to his next stop, maybe Espanyol at this rate, I'll go back to not giving a fuck.

Will, you asked me questions and I answered them...directly. Feel free to do me that same courtesy...

And again, that would be our problem because we haven't handled our business. If we win ALL of our games is there anything Chelsea can do to affect us? So it's ALL in our hands or all our fault then, right?
There's only 2 there so it shouldn't take you that much time or many words... And when you do, and if you'd like, we can move on to these other points you've made.

I answered the one question you asked. It's laughably absurd for you to even propose we win 38 matches. Bayern doesn't win 38 matches and they play in a joke comp. Spurs wouldn't win 38 league matches in League Two.

You didn't answer my latest questions though.

Just don't get your slavish loyalty to Pochettino. He was a great head coach for us for a time. Then he moved on. Now he manages our 2nd biggest rival in London, a club full of racist cunt supporters, which bought success thanks to their former Russian gangster owner. That's the club he called the greatest in England. But you "wish him the best".
 
I answered the one question you asked.
I did not read your messages Will because they started with this nonsense...

That's not a good faith response. Here are my questions...feel free to answer them directly and I will engage. You just know that when you do that will set you up for the tongue lashing that I'm about to put on you...again.

If we win ALL of our games is there anything Chelsea can do to affect us?

It only takes 2 words and not all the other window dressing you're putting on. It amazes me that adults think they have a point, or would like to portray to others that they do, but can't summon the courage to answer very simple questions. When reality doesn't jibe with the bullshit I believe I change what I believe not my perception of reality. Two words, Will!

Your question isn't sensible since there is no historical precedent for a professional football team in any league across the globe that has won every match in a season.

You can be a real pussy sometimes, Will. You know that, right? This is so cowardly...you should absolutely be ashamed. I wouldn't be able to stare in the fucking mirror...and to do it with such an easily shredded point (precedent matters not, only the possibility). Will, if I had to go out all pussy-like I would definitely go out on a stronger foundational point. My god...

Scared of saying yes and no...

Your question, again, is not in good faith. No professional football club has ever won every league match. So the entire premise is flawed.
Shut up, Will! I'm not sure you understand what good faith is...and you've now doubled-down on that evidence FFS! This point is fucking stupid...really, really stupid...I would be ashamed to have made it...and I previously thought you were someone that wouldn't have made such a point.

Your nonsense has taken this away from the topic at hand which is Poch. Happy for any success he has in the future. You don't see it that way because you want to be a real fan and fit in with the toxic nonsense spouted by the very many immature morons on this board that can't hold 2 opposing views in their heads at once. Good on you but it's not for me. We control our own destiny and any success Poch has only tangentially affects us...BUT IT DOESN'T HAVE TO!

Now, I remember you are one of the "gotta get the last word" type of cunts when someone calls you out and makes a fool of you. Two things: 1) if you hadn't in the past/didn't presently/and won't in the future say stupid shit then I won't call you out on it, and 2) this is the end of my convo with you on this topic so feel free to respond so folks see you got the last word...and, apparently, 'won'.
