The Romantic notion of Poch

Spurs are the laughing stock of football Sandy, and that is 100% down to our illustrious chairman, Daniel Phillip Levy.

If that is the case then why would Poch want to come back?

He probably doesn`t , he is way better than Levy

Obviously for Spurs fans but I fair used to enjoy watching Spurs under Porch

Wonder how he would do if he did come back, wonder if the club would get the players he would want, interesting

"Poch"

posted on 30/1/23

looks like we couldn't sign a fart in a lift currently... so dont matter what manager we have currently or get in the future.

Hi sock. Be a very backward step for Spurs to rehire a manager that spent five years winning nothing with Spurs best team for about 30 years.

Pochettino is being seriously overrated by a large section of our fanbase.

If winning the title is failing. Then so did all those before him.

What’s with all this negativity Sock

10/10 for effort

Must try harder

It's rare for PSG not to win the title, and not a big success to win it, yes he failed to move PSG as a ub forwards just as he did spurs that's why they got rid

That's why we also got rid, as Sandy said he undeperormed with the team he had

This romantic ideal of him is childish. You remember the football we played under him because of the team we had at that time. We could have had Allardyce as manager and still played good football

He's not coming back anyway, he does not want to get found out.

Lloris - fair point he was widely regarded as a top player when Poch signed

Vertonghen - was obviously always a good talent, but improved

Alderweireld - clearly Poch identified, signed and improved

Walker - was widely lambasted by most of the fan base before Poch. Turned him into the PLs best RB

Rose - was a 1m footballer that couldn’t get a kick before Poch

Trippier - signed for 4m and was playing well under Poch. Was a great buy as Rose’s understudy.

Dembele - many thought he was a top talent, but Poch made him consistent and as like Walker brought out the best in his game

Eriksen - many could see the talent but again it was Poch that brought out his best

Alli - signed for 4m went on the hit crazy numbers. Has failed to ever reach those heights with any manager since and his career has went on a downward trajectory

Wanyama - again a Poch signing that at first looked unreal, a real force in MF. Injuries unfortunately blighted him

Dier - well was Dier, but he played his best football for Poch in DMF, slotting between the two CBs are the team transitioned into attack

Kane - kudos to Sherwood for giving him his chance. But it was Poch that ultimately that built an environment for his kick on and feel confident to hit dizzying heights

I could go on and name others. You’ll likely mention the big signings Poch made that on appearance failed. But that only tells half the story. Anyone who knows their onions knows Poch had a specific way of playing that meant players took time to settle into the team. Whose knows how them players would be doing now. Lo Celso got to a CL semi and Ndombele is on the cusp of a serie A title. So the talent is clearly there.

This is embarrassing, even for Sandy!
Who would talk to themselves to make it look as if he's not the only idiot in the village.

Belfast, wow you really attribute a lot to Poch don't you, crediting him for bringing out talent. Rather telling that we have no replacements for that team despite Poch leaving only a few years ago. Who's fault is that?

Yeah a lot of the same team. But 3 managers ago. The fault for that lays firmly at your beloved Daniel Phillip Levy

Brilliant so it's Levy's fault when it goes wrong and Poch takes the credit when it goes right.

Amazing how Poch inherited the spine of a team but didn't leave one, all this talent just hanging around untapped but when he left there was none of it. All Levy's fault too I guess.

Ya can’t have you toast buttered on both sides. On one side he inherited a great team. And on the other the team is so crap now because it’s all the same said personnel that he left behind.

Chose one

He inherited talent because the previous managers left it. It's you that wants it both ways.

So according to you he inherited a great team. And now the same team is so bad because he has left all the team he inherited. Glad we cleared that oxymoron up
