they have the money to do so, I would bank on Mr Pochettino's principles, rather than RM's bank balance

No they dont. As of last night and this morning Poch is clear favourite across the board. Odds on with betvictor, with Wenger 2nd favourite. Conte's as much as 12/1 with some
cannavaro seems plausible- hand the torch from one RM former player to another?
wenger seems insane, sarri perhaps but not really "sexy" enough a name, conte had a bad season this past year.
do hope this gives poch some leverage in getting more xfer budget/wages out of levy though.
I think Poch will have a crazy buyout in his contract, the Times are reporting £42.5m (essentially his salary over 5 years), but I think it will be more than that.
Levy long ago went about making the managers contracts more like the players contracts - high buyout fees on the clubs side and low compensation amounts on the managers side.

Madrid's sudden interest in Eriksen is pretty telling, are they trying to lure our players there so that our manager will follow suit?
Regardless, if you believe all the rumours in the papers, we are signing about 80 players this window and losing our manager, striker and star midfielder to a soon to be financially and already morally bankrupt Madrid.

If Poch goes, it will be Levy’s fault.
If he says he wants to go, we should prevent him, make him see out his contract & let him rot managing the under 23’s.
Otherwise it just reinforces us as being a club that sells its best assets to the highest bidder.
Am I doing this right
John Thomas
?
He won’t leave Spurs at this point. He wants to see us into our New Stadium & seems very keen on the next project

I'm interested to know how the richest sports club in the world will soon be bankrupt
You're a troll because you just post negative bollocks ... no true fan would do that ... claiming our training facility was built as a money making guest house for visiting teams? ..... that's feckin' stupidity of the highest order ... your just trolling for a response, it's not hard to work out
A fan supports his team not digs them up at every opportunity .. that's know as 'trolling' ... get it now?
For once I'm relaxed about our managerial position.
Of all clubs, Real is about the least well-matched to Poch. No control over anything, super-galacticos (what's the Spanish for "show us yer medals then", "I'm not chasing back thanks", "you're going to rotate me with a kid from the yoof?")
It's not as if the Real job doesnt come up for grabs every 2-3 years or so.
Also, for all his success with us, he hasnt won anything, anywhere. That's not to say that he hasnt progressed all 3 clubs - clearly he has. But he hasnt WON anything. Real need to WIN things. Perez may admire Poch, going back to his time at Espanyol, but FFS theyre way more likely to end with a winner like Low. Poch has got into the knock out round of CL ONCE.
1. Too much of a gamble for RM;
2. Not a good match for Poch MO;
3. Levy.
And like I said, if he really wanted the RM job, it makes more sense to get more experience for the next few years and take it when he's a better manager.

Marca reckon today that RM have contacted Pochettino and Löw.
They've also changed tack, they now admit there is no get out clause (the clause that they exclusively revealed) but there is a gentleman's agreement between Levy and MP.

"Right, Mauricio. If Madrid calls what will you do?"Marca reckon today that RM have contacted Pochettino and Löw.

"Put you on conference call and then we laugh"
It was and we know this because it’s currently being utilised by the Brazilian national side who will being paying a premium for the privilege and our planning permission was supported by the likes of Milan and Barca.
If you would step outside of your rigid groupthink mindset you would see that I said that this is actually a good thing - it generates addtional revenue and profile for the club. But no instead you desperately cling to your false narratives and spit vitriol at those who stray outside of that.
As for what consitutes a supporter - well I refuse to engage in such low brow discourse, It’s beyond juvenile.

From Poch's on going press conf/signing in Barcelona
Journo: How would Levy react if you left?
Poch: He would bite me!

Classic trolling .... nobody's buying it ....
Our training ground was built for us, get over it ... 50m on facilities is not covered by Brazil staying there for the next 20 years, not unless they're paying a 2.5 million a year ... you are an idiot ... please stop ....
Jesus you Guys... go and knock one out to release all your frustrations, stop putting so much energy and worry into something that is not going to happen..
In every industry there are people with principles. Those who other factors then being on "top of the pyramid" right now. Those whose words and promises carry. People like Eriksen and I believe Poch.
Then there are c*nts who you cannot rely upon who will jump the ship at first moment they can. Like Sol Campbell, Luis Figo. And apparently - you.
Don't make a face that everyone are exactly the same. You can belong to 2nd category but not everyone does.
Spurs should hand serial loser Poch to Madrid on a silver platter and get Zidane in as his replacement.
Then they might actually win something.
