I don’t think Poch will work at Spurs I know its harsh to say that after only 5 premier league games but I question his judgement already. Why is Kaboul our captain he should not really be in the first 11, why does Chriches start over Vertonghan? Why does Rose still get a game? Why did he sanction the sale of Sandro, Sigurdsson and Holtby yet keep absolute donkeys like Paulinho and Naughton. Spurs have gone so far back from the redknapp days its silly. It’s not Poch’s fault but the pressure is going to mount very quickly if we produce many more performances like yesterday. I was at the game and have seen some rubbish from Spurs in my time yesterday ranks right near the top and I used to watch Spurs in the mid 90’s when we really were rubbish. One shot on target at home against the team that was bottom of the league is simply a disgrace
Anyway as I said I would put money on Poch not being our manager this time next season and that will be another promising career we wreck with the Spurs curse. I think I preferred the days when I knew we were rubbish and didn’t expect much but we dined at the big table for a bit and now we been sent to sit in the corner with the rest of the no marks.
Poch will be gone this time next year

We need to stick with Poch and let him build something good!!
Fed up with managers being sacked all the time

Hengy , IMHO we should have stuck with Arry , if Poch ends up being Levynated I reckon Pulis would be worth a shout , as I say I hope he proves me wrong.

Harry is in the past so we must move on,poch needs to be ruthless with any player who is found wanting in desire and commitment !
I don't want to sit there watching players who don't give a feck anymore,we need a settled defence first of all build from there.

Yes I wanted harry to stay but he was the one that facked up!
No way on earth should pulis be our manager!
Poch showed with southampton that he's a good manager and can build a team to play excellent in the prem.

Houns I agree , hopefully a good win mid week should set us up nicely for the NLD.

Well this is an interesting debate so I have to have my say
Firstly MP needs to be given a fair crack of the whip at WHL 2 seasons at least possibly 3 depending on the progress made in the first two.
The players he got rid of, firstly Sandro. We all loved the beast but barring one season he has struggled to play more than 10/15 games in a season. Common sense would tell a manager to sell him.
Holtby confuses me a little I thought he was a good squad player.
Siggy, for me not good enough to get us where we want to be, its that simple.
Kaboul as captain is one hell of a weird choice as most of us consider he is not even good enough now to be a first team regular.
We honestly dont really understand our transfer policy and nobody can say for sure who authorises new signings. On one hand we are told that our DOF signs who he wants and the manager has no say but I find that a bit hard to understand personally.
None of us are sure what wage restraints are imposed at WHL and maybe a lot of the players we want just wont sign because we refuse to break the bank by paying ridiculous wages.
We are also trying to ensure we are in a financial position to build a new ground.
The only real solution is to go back to basics a little.
MP is manager so should be given at least 2 full seasons and should (within reason financially) be the only person to say whether or not we should or should not sign a player.
He should also be the one who decides who goes and sometimes thats not easy look how long it took us to unload David Bentley for example.
All we can do as fans is be patient. I know thats not easy (actually impossible for some) but until such times as its patently obviously that our manager is not good enough we should stick with him
So far this season we have played 5 league games
One of them we played ok (QPR but to be honest they are crap)
One was acceptable in some ways (Sunderland away)
West Ham away we got lucky
The other two Pool and WBA at home we were dreadful, failed to score against either and were totally boring
MP will now have to show us all that he is the right man for the job and the next 3 games will hopefully answer a lot of questions.
Incidentally if Chiriches is selected for any of those 3 games we will need a new manager for sure because I will personally go and shoot our current one

I wont need to I know in my own mind I would not select Chiriches for the first team if he was the only centre defender we had available I would just play 2 at the back
