Professor Posted 26 October, 2014 Share Posted 26 October, 2014 I thought the club should have sacked Pochettino back in March/April when it was clear from the media that he was intending to break his contract. The team was stagnating with points being lost that should not have been and his inability to turn possession football into goals was frustrating. As it turned out, the club saved £2m by letting him break his contract and we are so much better off now, whether it be by luck or judgement. The interviews in English, forced on Pochettino by Tottenham, make his refusal to speak to Saints' fans in our own language now look like an insult. The much talked about exodus, that hardly any of us welcomed, has turned out to be a blessing in disguise and is even described by some as a clearing out of dead wood. Not only quite content with seeing Tottenham lose today as it drops them down the table, but also very pleased for our other ex-manager who left us with a far more positive legacy.

toe_punt Posted 26 October, 2014 Share Posted 26 October, 2014 Happy for Pardew. OK, he's a bit of a "Jack the lad" with his potty mouth and chasing women but he was a good manager for us and a good manager for Newcastle up till recently (manager of the year two years ago).

suewhistle Posted 26 October, 2014 Share Posted 26 October, 2014 I didn't realise that Spurs were playing today, until a couple of minutes ago when I was browsing The Guardian website over a cup of tea and saw that they'd lost.

Kingsland Red Posted 26 October, 2014 Share Posted 26 October, 2014 It has been covered elsewhere but the media have still not picked up on the fact that Saints appear to scout players who can take on instructions and have a brain. Poch will struggle at Spurs with the current players as they do not take on board his instructions. His post match interview rips into their mental approach. Oh and as we know he has no Plan B !

aintforever Posted 26 October, 2014 Share Posted 26 October, 2014 I see they've sussed out his lack of plan B already: "Poch has, again consistently, failed to make any tactical change of note. His subsitutions are actually good, but often too late. Further no tactical change ensues. At Southampton he had an unenviable record of never winning a game from a losing position, nothing has changed here." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VectisSaint Posted 26 October, 2014 Share Posted 26 October, 2014 Really don't care any more about Poch. If he hadn't left we wouldn't now have Koeman. The football that RK is serving up is so much more exciting than Poch's style ever allowed. At the time I thought Poch was going to be a big loss, he did well for us, and instilled a way of playing that was successful, but now you have to wonder whether RK could have achieved more with the same set of players. I still enjoy seeing Poch lose, but its as much about my dislike of Spurs as about him now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david in sweden Posted 27 October, 2014 Share Posted 27 October, 2014 Maybe Mauricio Pochettino should come into this thread, as he was the first to desert and started the fall-out in the summer. After yesterdays' result, I was glad for Pardew, but not one iota's sympathy for the Argentinian. He made his bed, now he might die on it. Signs of the Spuds mindset that I observed on an earlier thread. They were far more reliant on Bale than they ever knew, and the resulting expediture (7 players) gave them one or two bargains, who are often out of place in a side composed of lazy, overpaid prima-donnas who are used to ignoring managers and leaning on their big contracts. If Pochettino is to improve this side, he must do better than the midtable placement he has just now, and if we beat them at White Hart Lane in April ......he may not survive until next season.
