    Have a nice cup of tea and lie down. Spurs will find someone with a higher profile than our Mauricio...this is all paper talk.

    I don't think you can count him though, because he changed clubs. And also, Martinez got relegated with Wigan, so I don't think he should count.

    Doesn't matter, he's a current premier league manager who has been in his job longer than Pochettino. Nobody said anything about them being in the premier league for their entire tenure.

    Surely Martinez has managed in the PL longer than Pochettino then?

    No the whole point is how long they have been in their current job, not in the premier league!

    Well surely the Moyes sacking made no difference to Pochettino's position then? And Bruce has only been in charge of Hull in the PL for 1 season.

    Oh well, we've had one season of Man U being ****e. It couldn't last forever I suppose, although would have been nice for it to last a bit longer.

    Yes I suppose since Moyes was at United for only one season his sacking makes no difference to Pochettino's position.

    Bruce is currently managing in the premier league and has been in charge of Hull longer than Pochettino has been at Southampton, therefore he's in 6th place and Pochettino is in 7th.

    Ok, but your previous explanations were rather vague. And that's a stupid way to do it. The more sensible way is to judge it by how long the managers have been managing in the PL, regardless if they changed club or not.

    If you want to tell us how long each manager has been in the PL, be my guest. You'll find that the majority of people who are on your list are not currently managers though, which doesn't seem that sensible to me.

    Well it didn't help that you said "Pochettino is now 7th on the list" which implied he had moved position.
