    Talk about scraping the barrel when a newspapers says the tie Pochettino wears is seen as a farewell ... what a ****ing joke. That's gotta be a piss take surely?

    Rosler is the only one named so far on this board I'd be happy with, and maybe Di Matteo.
    Rest show complete lack of ambition, and got mid-table written all over them.

    I'd certainly take Thomas Tuchel and Paco Jemez over Di Matteo.

    If thats not enough proof there's the fact that Poch got out of his seat 45 times during the game. CORTESE IS 45 YEARS OLD! Coincidence? I think not.

    Loving how the Luke Shaw to Man U thread has slipped into the netherworld of page 2. Let's hope the "Will Pochettino stay?" thread heads in the same direction shortly:)

    Unfortunately, if you get Poch, you'll be waiting another season at least for top four imo. As good as he is here, I don't think Spurs are the team for him. Amongst other things, he will need a further influx of players he needs to work his style, and we all know what happens with a large inlfux of players at Spurs. Also not on your side is the fact that, like us, you won't be able to keep any of your top players. Any of them overperform and you don't get CL, they'll be off. One thing in his favour as far as getting the sack is concerned is that surely Levy has reached his limit now before having to resign himself - he needs to make the next manager work?!

    Mauricio needs a certain type of player for his style and they must be willing to work hard as he takes no prisoners. Can't pretend I know enough about Spurs to say whether they have the players or not.

    Also, why can clubs like Swansea put clauses in deals like not letting ex-managers poach their players, and we won't? If we didn't, I would really, honestly despair in the direction this club might be going.

    So he basically needs half the Saints team to supplement them #headlesschicken

    Probably! I mean it was a bit tongue-in-cheek from me but they really do have a selection of mercenaries there at the moment and no real leadership. But he may be able to get the most out of the likes of Lamela, Sigurdsson, Dembele who obviously have huge talent but haven't done it this season for what ever reason

    Sorry, meant the UK-based managers. Don't know enough about the Mainze and Vallecano managers.
    Wouldn't really want Di Matteo either, bar his experience in CL - might not be many CL managers we could attract.

    My youngest is at school with Di Matteo's son so he is still living in the Wimbledon area.

    Apparently Adam Blackmore has said on twitter, that Cortese wanted to sack Pochettino in December, but was persuaded not to by our senior players
