he'll be waiting longer than that.
He looked like he'd lost the team.
Wish our board would be that decisive.
Mourinho
Allegri
Benitez or they might just go leftfield and poach another young promising manager in Eddie Howe . I can't see Rodgers doing the dirty on Leicester after what he did to Celtic.
 
My guess is the combination of his tactics, attitude and general treatment of players has worn on everyone and for awhile they were able to take it because they were young and improving. But now they have flatlined and they blew the big chance in the CL final in very tame and uninspiring fashion. I think that makes the other stuff more than people want to deal with and that's why performances have dipped. I think he will probably do well somewhere else but I also think this was the right move.

Don't know if it'll go exactly like that, but yeah the smart money is on them being finished as a top threat and will drop back down to 6th or so.
 
Dear Mr. Potch,
I run a top notch club sarf of the river. We play in Red'nBlue stripes just like Barcelona from Spain an everyfing. Sometimes, we play like Barcelona (but only when they lose. Heavily.)
Don't worry about vem Spurz. Come an' work for me. Our manager is 94 so will only last a bit longer. You might need your payoff to use as a transfer kitty but don't worry coz Everton will be back in for Wilf in January. Nailed on.
Call me up quick.
Your sincerely,
Mr S Parish
Chancer in Chief
CPFC.

Sacked but I think something has been going on behind the scenes. Something not been right for a while. The CL run papered over the cracks.

Still love him though.

Wasn't given any money to freshen up the squad for a couple of years because of the new stadium.....players like Eriksen haven't performed in far too long (wanted moves away)..... Poch has worked miracles as far as I'm concerned...


On a side note.... Worth noting how higher the standards of the Spurs board are now compared to ours..

Mad they sack a manager when just last season he got them to the first UCL final.

Don’t know what’s happening there but from where Spurs are from when he took over I would have thought he deserved more time.

more than meets the eye here

Definitely. There’s been discontent from Poch for a while. He expected Spurs to kick on in the summer and make big signings, didn’t happen.

He’s been working with roughly the same group of players for about four years. It’s naturally gone stale. Think it was mentioned that in the CL final teams only Firmino and Henderson has played in the same fixture 4 years previously, as opposed to 9 from Spurs.

A much cheaper way to freshen things up is a new manager. It’s a big risk from Levy though as Poch being one of the best managers in the world is a hard act to replace.
 
Weird what's happened with Spurs. Last season and prior they were very good, but then signed some well-rated players and lost all identity. I reckon some of the better players like Kane and Eriksson had enough of not winning anything and lost faith in the manager. Some good players in that team but I think most of them want out. Will be a very, very hard job to get a better manager in.
