Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino is set for talks with owner Daniel Levy regarding the club's January transfer plans, including deciding the futures of England midfielder Eric Dier, 25, and Denmark's Christian Erisken, 27, who is wanted by Real Madrid. (Star)

Certain posters on this board will be fuming when they read this.

Remember when you predicted that Kane was a one-season wonder?

When someone gets something so spectacularly wrong, I think the rest of us are entitled to treat everything else they say on the subject with disdain.

So you do think he’s going to be there in 4 years time then.

You know what to do. In my desk, top drawer on the left. Good lad <ok>

Without the penos he probably was, Abraham’s will get more than the donkey.
 
The easy thing for Pochettino to do would be to clear his desk and wave an emotional goodbye to north London. He considered that during the summer and, had he left, would have had nothing to apologise for. He has taken Spurs and its fans into a land they could only have dreamed of and has done it by building a team that has played some of the most exhilarating football seen anywhere in the world.

But that is not where his mind is now.

Oh, dear!

This is going to ruin someone's week.

The rest of the article is the usual ignorant speculation and wishful thinking.

These embittered poisonous hack journos write these articles and take them to the point where they would love to conclude that Poch will be off to Real or United, but they always stub their toe against the fact that he has consistently said he has no interest in leaving Spurs.

So you took one paragraph out of the article and laud it as a brilliant piece of Journalism.

And then try and claim that the rest is 'poisonous hack journo' nonsense.

From the same article :

Effectively what we are seeing is the irrefutable decay of a squad that should have been recycled, reinvigorated, revitalised, a squad that has been allowed to drift into the footballing crisis it now finds itself in. Why a crisis? Because this team, judging by results, is not moving forward - they are at best standing still and at worst going backwards.

<rofl>

Nothing more than embittered speculation.

Not at all.

The bit I quote is the stubbing of the toe.

From the same article:

The stats make for painful perusal. Spurs have lost 19 of their past 41 games in all competitions. Bayern Munich's brutal efficiency in beating them 7-2 on 1 October and Brighton's energy four days later in a 3-0 victory exposed once and for all the yawning cracks that Pochettino and his team have been trying to paper over for the past nine and a half months.

Would you say that the above is 'embittered speculation' ?

Pochettino's improved image saw him mentioned as a potential successor to Andre Villas-Boas at Tottenham and this week a report in Italy suggested he is set to leave for pastures new in June. Pochettino has no intention of making such an exit and would be keen to extend his contract past the end of the 2014/15 season, although no talks have been started.


'In Italy there is a new piece of news happening every single minute and most of them are contradictory from one hour to the next,' Pochettino said. 'What can I say about it? I think if we paid attention to every single report that came out in Italy we'd probably go mad. I can't really comment on something that has no solidity to it. I am happy here of course,' he said.
