    Mauricio Pochettino - Sacked

    I don't think it is solely to do with that now, I think for a 10-15 year period it was all about maximising income but the sums are so vast now wherever you go if you are a decent player that they want trophies to go with it. I'm telling you now, absolutely no way do we keep our players even if...

    "Champions of 3rd place, we know what we are"

    Fair enough, that's an interesting perspective. Taking that view might make us a bit more relaxed in the future before big games and if we fall short there is always another game, another season.......

    "Champions of 3rd place, we know what we are"

    What makes it the height of arrogance? Because it doesn't suit your opinion or narrative? It is my perception of it and I think he should avoid saying something along those lines and use a different angle in the future. You obviously don't. I think in fairness the draws have been very kind in...

    Mauricio Pochettino - Sacked

    I think you and the others have misunderstood what I was meaning. Walker didn't just go for money, he knew he would get medals as well so I think if Tottenham had matched or exceeded Citys offer, he would still have gone and he wouldn't swap those medals to have remained at Tottenham on...

    "Champions of 3rd place, we know what we are"

    I don't think everybody would agree with that, I think some will accept whatever is thrown up in front of them and use the lack of finances etc as some crown to wear. If you don't strive for better and just say oh well then how do you expect to get any better? Its that sort of mentality we need...

    Mauricio Pochettino - Sacked

    It isn't how it is. You don't have to win the CL to make serious money from it and the same with the PL......that's how you are being made to think. The club get enough financial reward just from taking part in these other competitions, ticket money, sponsorship. You ask Kyle Walker whether he...

    "Champions of 3rd place, we know what we are"

    In reference to Pochettino and the fact he doesn't get it done in the big games......well in win or bust games he hasn't, that is fact. Fiorentina and Sheffield United are notable exceptions but I wouldn't label that at him uniquely, the players have to accept a large amount of criticism because...

    Mauricio Pochettino - Sacked

    Mate, it means something to the fans going week in week out, don't be kidded by the tripe thrown out by the media. It may carry a little less prestige than years back but ultimately a team is judged on its trophy haul and I would like to get us back into that particular top 4 having been usurped...

    Summer 2018 transfer thread

    Sissoko doesn't suit us, he likes to drive into space that we are never afforded unless we are playing a top 6 rival and then its rare he takes part anyway. Not his fault at all and his confidence from day one has hindered him but he is better off elsewhere. Dier has been imo nowhere near to...

    "Champions of 3rd place, we know what we are"

    That's fair enough, I would disagree and feel our performances rather than the points actually accrued have been of a stumbling nature rather than finishing with a flourish but that's just purely how I see it.

    "Champions of 3rd place, we know what we are"

    I'm not revelling in any negativity, just choose to see things in a broader sense hence why I said its still a very good achievement as opposed to the general default mode I notice of just accepting what is put in front of them and suggesting it doesn't matter now because we got top 4 anyway.

    Mauricio Pochettino - Sacked

    I personally want trophies, Top 4 in reality means sod all if the manager isn't backed properly and he hasn't been with CL in the past. 6th and FA Cup would be perfectly acceptable to me. As long as we are in Europe every season then I don't mind but I wouldn't accept a Chelsea-esque off season...

    *** The Official Boxing/UFC/MMA thread ***

    Disagree completely. Lomachenko has only fought 11 times, he is clearly a good fighter but you are dismissing someone who is a 4 time world champion in 3 different weight classes, he is WBA and The Ring lightweight champion and should really be still WBC lightweight champion as well. Lomachenko...

    *** The Official Boxing/UFC/MMA thread ***

    Gone with Linares in a sixfold. Linares is for me, one of the P4P best in the world. Classy fighter at range and very decent on the inside too. 4-5 inch reach advantage against Lomachenko which shouldn't be sniffed at. I expect Linares to box behind the jab and give Lomachenko a bit of a...

    Mauricio Pochettino - Sacked

    Big credit in the end for getting us over the line, needs more backing and help from the chairman because the squad just isn't big enough or full of enough quality throughout to attack everything and we shouldn't be in a position where we are saying well if we are trying to win the League Cup we...

    "Champions of 3rd place, we know what we are"

    Its about all those factors tbh and I think it extended to more than a few twitchy supporters. A large portion of us have seen that sort of thing before and we allowed them to put pressure on us with those defeats against WBA and Emirates Marketing Project. The poor performances started at Stoke where we were so...

    "Champions of 3rd place, we know what we are"

    We didn't hit any bad run after the Juventus game. We went straight out and smashed Bournemouth 1-4. We hit bad form after the Chelsea win and have been shocking in pretty much every game since then save for 20 mins against Man Utd. Another lesson etc......how many of those do you want or do you...

    "Champions of 3rd place, we know what we are"

    That is one view, if however you look at the performances rather than just results we did scrape in based on the last 5 weeks. If you can sit there and say that we didn't then you must have watched something very,very different since April 1st and I would imagine that most people would accept...

    "Champions of 3rd place, we know what we are"

    That is what he does though, you shouldn't be surprised by it. Just always treat everything he says with the cynicism it deserves and until it can be proven, consider it incorrect and false information

    "Champions of 3rd place, we know what we are"

    He made it up, unusually. The money is normally around 2m-3m increments per league position. So taking into account the domestic cups prize money and TV money from them combined with finishing maybe 3rd and the TV money from the league rights we will have made about £150m before taking into...
