Meh. Has shown he can build decent teams and play good stuff but no thanks, I think. Seems to bottle it when it REALLY matters. The League Cup final, two FA Cup semi finals, two Premier League title races, the game against Juventus. 

There's an article in today's Guardian titled ''Pochettino's success at Tottenham cannot be judged on trophies alone''. Have you ever heard such apologist bollocks ?. If you want to be considered as an elite club you have to win a major trophy which hopefully Spurs never will. Can you imagine an article saying Sean Dyche should be sacked because he hasn't won anything yet. So many Spurs fans in the media going back to the 60's just remember Portsmouth have won the FA cup more recently than Spurs.

Yeah but he might be good for now. Giving that we are not spending big and will more then likely continue like that till Stadium expenses are finish. 

To me he is the perfect manager to have to implement more youth and work with a budget constraint.

But what's the point if he doesn't breed winning mentality by constantly playing down the importance of winning trophies - even if it's the League Cup or FA Cup?

Elsewhere, Klopp has lost the plot...

"Useless comeback,'' was Klopp's assessment of West Brom's late recovery. "I don't think that point will help West Brom massively, it is a complete waste of points: they don't need it, we would have needed it.

"They are happy now, we are not happy. We stay in the league, they don't stay in the league -- it is a strange situation.''

Yup, he did. Think Guardiola made a similar complaint some years back? Said the grass was too long or something like that.

We could bring Poch in for 2 or 3 seasons to build some sort of a team then Roman will get pissed off cause we havent won owt and can bring in someone else to finish the job off!

I wake up with the screaming abdabs thinking rhat Brenda is coming to be honest!!

Or MAYBE Roman sees what Klopps done )or should that be Salah?) and go for his old assistant David Wagner.We got them in a few days so lets see of Romans at the game.But as theyre only 6 points from demotion hes not done owt sparkling as he.

Can we actually see Luis Enrique building a team with a small budget?

Outside of Salah, and mane at times, this liverpool side are bang average.
Cant believe they are taking one of the champions league spots from us.
 
Same could be said about Tottenham & even Utd. The fact we are fifth is solely down to us

Teams above keep dropping points, so we need to do our bit in the last four games.

scousers droping yet more points, f uck if only we hadnt played like shit in previous games, we could be sitting confortably in top 4, maybe we still have a glimmer of hope but only if we win all our games and Spurs and Pool drop more points. We can all hope but it will very difficult at this late stage in the season, we only have ourselves to blame for being in this predictament. Cheers
