Much prefer the 3-2 laying out the issues Jose needs to resolve rather than a smooth 3-0 win against a shit opponent

Yippee, tactical talk that I understand, thank you
I haven't heard anyone given as much respect as Jose has when he speaks about Poch these last 5 days. Jose has aced the way he has come into this club IMO. He's acted and has said everything the right way. For the fans and the players.
Dele has also played a couple of games already this season where he was MoTM or a contender for it.
One point that I hadn't contemplated until hearing his interview was the impact of international duty on our side, especially compared to West Ham's. I would have almost certainly have mentioned this had Poch still be with us and I think it's significant.
I am hoping that the boys come into their peak for Dec as they have every season under Poch, a bit worrying that our levels are dropping off so bad after 12 games, something to keep an eye on.
Poch always gave a lot of respect to him, so Jose is returning the favor.
not as much grit and guilt as your boy Sissoko, continually tripping over the fucking thing and then letting their fella walk past him leading up to the third though eh?
I’m quite enjoying how salty it has made the West Ham fans, apparently VAR is corrupt and there goal should have stood and it ended 3-3
The West Ham fans were disgraceful.
In other news, the sun is hot.

Hey, we gotta play to our strengths BC. As such, stay off the cuisine commentary.
True, they never had beef with each other. Poch never caved into Jose's antics and I think Jose respected that about him. Jose could have subtlety disrespected Poch by coming in and saying things like, "we're going to turn the page on the old regime," etc. But he knows how much us fans and the players loved Poch so he's doing everything he can to get a historical hostile fan base to accept him.
Very welcome win. I thought we were superb. Attacking freely, Dier anchored very well and Winks controlled the midfield well.
Dele was brilliant, great to see him getting forward and finding space again. The piece of skill in Lucas’ goal was sublime. All 4 of the attackers looked dangerous.
He probably won’t get the headlines but I thought Davies was excellent.
Still, the 2 goals conceded weren’t great. In a way I’m glad José saw how weak our defence can be. He’ll sort that out for sure.
Saturday afternoon seem nice again! Roll on Tuesday.

Apparently Mou wrote the letter of recommendation to the FA/league that allowed Poch to get the Saints job.
(this is apparently a thing. A new foreign manager has to be vouched for before they can get their first job in England. Poch and Pep wrote letters of recommendation for Bielsa as well).
Maybe the 2 goals keep Pellegrini in the job for a while longer 
I hope we give poch the VIP treatment in Turkey come June so he can witness us lifting the trophy!
