Although Jose will have higher standards than a street crawler
Bit cheaper than sacking him though!

Suppose that depends upon how much you think Hojbjerg, Reguilon and Doherty have improved our team.
As Pochettino was averaging 1 point per game during his last 24 PL matches with us, so we’re currently 50% better off than that with largely the same lineup.

So well worth the millions of pounds and turgid football then.

Not quite the same though, Ndombele and Lo Celso had not had any time to settle in. Ndombele in particular showed he needed some work on his fitness.

Milo and Luton were telling me earlier about Jack Pitt-Brooke writing the story of Pep's rebuild of City and how he was backed versus forced out. The comparative "what if" question regarding Poch was put forth apparently. It is a really interesting point. I have my own thoughts on the matter, which I suspect are not exactly a secret...

That tinkled me off to no end. The arrogance! It was Trumpian!

What would you say in his shoes? I am curious especially given the question he was asked.

It’s fine to say he still believes in his methods. I’d absolutely expect that from him. But Jose does want Jose does when he’s under pressure and being questioned...lets his ego take over.
Saying “my methods are second to no one” when his team is underachieving in 9th place says “this is everyone’s fault except mine because I’m the best coach in the world.” That was the time to show some humility, show that everyone is in it together. Say “I believe in my methods and I have absolute confidence in my ability and the players’ ability to turn this around”.
But Jose doesn’t do that sort of thing because when the brick hits the fan, he’s just worried about himself.
@DeanoAustin answered your question to me as well as I could! If his methods were that good, we wouldnt have taken 12 points from 12 games

10 from 12 isn’t it?
Off the top of my head, something like 'I still have total confidence in mine and my staff's coaching methods, as I do in my players. Every team goes through difficult periods in a season - the important thing is how you react. It's up to all of us to work together now to improve our form, which I'm totally confident we will.'
Rather than effectively implying 'I'm at least the joint best coach in the world, and there's nothing else I can do to improve the team (because the players aren't good enough or aren't showing the right attitude, and there's nothing I can do about either)'.

Apparently David Moyes is getting paid just over a million a year at West Ham. We pay Jose 15 times that and yet our team look as though they are not coached as well as our opponents were yesterday. I think Moyes came in at West Ham at about the same time as Jose came into Spurs as well so that pus to bed the ‘not enough time’ theory.

People love to forget this. We bought Ndombele early, but Lo Celso was literally signed on last day of window per usual from Levy. People so often love to pretend like Poch brought in loads of players that Summer.

He got 4.... Two of them arrived injured and one it very much seemed he didn’t want (the loan back to Leeds wasn’t a condition of the deal to bring in Clarke).
