Not much point having a manager shooting for the moon if he has no money to improve the squad. I don't think there is a manager out there who's getting as much as Poch is from Spurs given a 30mln net spend over the last 3-4 years, bringing through young players will bringing out significant approval in others. Has it been good enough to win trophies... No, but that is a consequence of the financial football landscape (City, Chelsea, United, Arsenal & Liverpool) and not Poch's lack of ambition.

If he did leave, my money would be on Eddie Howe to replace him and the mandate from Levy would be "more of the same"

"to cwrry on working under the lower expectations"
--------------------------------------------------------
CrouchEndGooner in racist slur against North London South Asian community.

The member of the light hearted sports forum even went to the length of using a double "u" instead of a single "u" to emphasise the "u" in "curry".

He also suggested that the south Asian community work under "lower expecations" really highlighting the glass ceiling society has constructed to limit the opportunities for the south Asian community, particularly in North London.

The South Asian community of North London has yet to respond.

I doubt this is the message he sends to the team privately. I think Poch jas learnt how to manipulate the media effectively.

To an extent I agree but it will come back to bite him if Spurs fail to win a cup and finish outside the top 4

Yeah probably true, but I think the stadium mess up and the lack of Summer transfers has realistically given him another year of zero accountability with Levy.

I’d only expect a backlash if people at the club said once we move into the new stadium we would be competing with Barca and real.

If that happens I’d expect our fans to be on a YouTube channel screaming for the managers head and screaming you get me fam !!

We’ve punched above our weight for the last few seasons and have played some great football.

Great value for the price of a season ticket

Maybe, maybe not. Whatever happens Spurs still have a better European record than Arsenal.

So do you expect to keep "punching above your weight" or do you think reality will bite and you'll be back to finishing outside the top 4?

I think it will be hard to finish top 4 tbh since sari has got chelsea unified and playing well and emery has impressed me how quickly he’s settled in and improved you lot.

City and Liverpool look like 2 of the top 4 and the other 2 spots will be between Chelsea arsenal and spurs.

Imo Poch knows the best chance of Spurs winning the league were over after they bottled the year in which Leicester won the league. After that, with the cash spent by the Manchester clubs they had no chance.

Personally I think this summer's lack of spending was instigated by Poch and not Levy. With a new stadium, players good enough for regular top 4 spot, and raising expectation from fans, Poch has got a bit nervous at trying move up that level and go for the title. Personally i think he's more than content to achieving top 4 without pressuring himself to get that elusive trophy.
