Mauricio Pochettino - Sacked

[Crab.C.Nesbitt]

He has to earn respect and our form since Jan coupled with his tactical ineptitude and lack of silverware doesn't warrant that.

BTW I think spelling Burkinshaw's name wrong is highly disrespectful.

Lol a simple typo.but to talk oftactical ineptitude is ridiculous. Yes it's been evident that things aren't right at the club for some time now, but to blame that on on po hand say he is tactically inept suggests you are living in cloud cuckoo land.

I don’t agree with Lineker there, it’s very much our weight.

It is now
It wasn’t when he came
We have been built up now to compete for the heavyweight titles

Just heard. Fuucuuucccck.

Initial emotions..
- slightly shocked
- then gutted
- probably on the cards none the less
Love the man and always will.

Mopo decision not to sign anyone in the no signing window.

No point signing bench and reserve fillers. We have plenty of those but for whatever reason we can't clear them out, and when we do we don't adequately replace them. The rightback situation is ridiculous for example

 

[DeanoAustin]

Interesting that they haven't announced anyone taking over on a caretaker basis as far as I know. Suggests to me an announcement is imminent.

Oh here we go, the "I'm a better supporter than you" gonad*s. For me, a real supporter does not revel in the sacking of our best manager since Burkinshaw (I am presuming you saw Burky's era?????)...clown.

Been a supporter of the club since 1977.

Levy getting rid of Poch this evening was a great decision for the club.

Can we get AVB back then?

Yes, and not to add insult to injury here, I'm not saying this was necessarily the right decision - but 38 points from 38 games with the squad we have - it just doesn't cut it.

slightly below when he arrived, at it by the start of year two I’d say

but certainly not a “massive” difference

Bet you all a million squid its Mourinho

GHod I hope not. He is a massive bellend.

I second that motion

This coincides with all the stories / rumours about Poch not really up for the fight but not wanting to be seen as a quitter. He lost the dressing room IMO and this was a mutual agreement keeping Poch’s image as a club legend in tact.

Will be a pay off like Contes I think where he gets paid until he gets another job

But if you feel like lovin' me

If you got the notion

I second that motion

A very hard decision to accept with equanimity.

A little under a year ago we were in second half way through the season, between Liverpool and City. It was an excellent start to the season following some good years. Since then our overall record has been very poor, disguised by a few incredible results in the Champions League.

Poch hasn't helped himself with a number of cryptic comments at critical moments, talking about leaving if we won the CL and about new challenges. Levy clearly hasn't funded him at the level he expects and, arguably, his record deserves. Perhaps this tension has spread to the players, because for some reason the performance level has tanked in the last year. The question must be could Poch turn things around. Levy has decided he can't.

Anyway, I'm off to RAWK to say that Klopp is the favourite as his successor.
