Pochettino to Mourinho was a massive backward step in long term sustainability and they don't have the money that United and Chelsea had to rebuild after they put out the fire.
I honestly do believe they are in trouble and they have brought in the wrong manager. Their games under Jose have been very drab and they are a shadow of what they were under Pochettino.
They aren't playing well. They've won some games lately, but performance wise it is still so-so. I think over the course of all of next season, especially if they get Europa, it'll catch up to them.
I agree with this but if he thinks spurs are going to win him those CL's and Prems he talks about then i'm afraid he's in for a shock.
I could take players who think they have made it by playing for us because they at least would be enthusiastic. The players I don't want are the ones who have had their crack at the big time then "settle" for a big wage and easy ride with us. For every Digne, there are Schneiderlins, Gibsons, Delphs etc.. I want them ambitious, as you say, but I want them committed for the time they are here even if they have one eye on a move in the future.
You're making my point for me. All of them went to a big club, "made it" then made what they viewed as a downward move. Delph from Man City, Snides from MU, Gibson the same. They were happy to be here and had no other higher destination in mind.
Sure, he will have the shock....but he not for three years playing hard to get there, and after he makes the move over.
