Great save from Leno on Rashford's free kick.

Lindelof is too weak for Premier League. Just like Musacchio is for Milan.

Maybe, just maybe, Pochettino isn't the best manager ever?

He is a great manager. You don't get a much less talented squad like Spurs to the CL final by being shit....Isn't this a large part of your argument in support of Allegri?

I think that the majority of players aren't invested into the success of the club anymore. Kane probably wants out...I could see Eriksen, Alli, Lamela etc all wanting out. It's a limbo situation

We all know why. He was linked with Milan in the summer, obviously lost the CL final with Tottenham and knows the squad won't ever reach those heights again, while also seeing GP bomb his time with Milan.

He's sabotaging his role so he gets let go - rather than having to pay out his contract - so he can bring an actual top European team to the CL final and win the trophy.

:lol:
I know bro. That’s a good one.
They didn’t invest this season. So they’ll have to do with what they have and their youth players.

I had the opportunity to go for a match end November/ beginning of December.
But I have convinced my friends to see Parma-Milan. :b: With a stay in Bologna.
For the food, climate and culture of course :g:

So we’ll go to London in April.

I didn't say he was shit.

I also didn't compare him to Allegri.

People act like he's Jesus incarnate. He's not. He's a very good manager.

Definetly someone who can lift the club higher, given less resources
he would be ideal for us and he would be able to choose players here, at spurs he's only allowed to work with the youngsters of his own preference and first team players that Levy approves.
They are one hell of a profitable club.

Well we agree then


I never said that he was the cream of the crop.

Did he not just lose 3-0 to relegation fodder? And get humiliated 7-2 midweek against a Bayern who just lost?

Does that negate all the good things he did? His players most likely lost motivation, it happens with other top coaches as well, when season after season you get close to winning something, only to fail short of your goal.

A change would bennefit him, and Spurs alike. In other news, Liverpool really do make their own luck...also VAR is shite in England.

He's in a similar moment as Klopp in his final year at Dortmund.
No one can overperform with 2nd rate clubs forever.
Time for him to leave.
He has done a fantastic job overall, for Tottenham and Southampton.

Still out of our league.

I'm playing devil's advocate.

I think he's a great manager. Don't think he's in the top tier, though, yet.

They had a bigger lead at a point last season, it's still really early days. Manchester City are Zerg like.

City have 1 fit CB and he's their worst of the lot. Liverpool have the title unfortunately. They're getting the luck as well which you need, though they also had that last season.

Weirdly over the last 18 months Man City have had quite a few moments of bad luck which puts their title last season in even more perspective. Liverpool are absolutely getting it with goalkeeper howlers, last minute dodgy pens etc. It's given them 4 points in the last two games already (and another earlier in the season). I usually maintain the best team gets the most luck but they had much more than City last year too.

Sickening era tbf.

Hated that guy ever since he knocked Barca out of CL. In the words of Arnie: One ugly mother!
