We sack Poch we are back to square 1. He needs to kick some arse after tonight. No more excuses, no more interviews to the press from players saying how they will turn it around. Just focus on Saturday's game and give a big performance. So fudging disgusted with the team tonight.

How about no more interviews from him flirting with Real?
I don’t disagree with your post btw.
Are we? We've barely played a half decent game all season and now an embarrassing result at Colchester. I'm sure we could find a manager to come in and do exactly what Poch is doing now.

I think the problem with Poch is that his style has a very short window, mainly because of the physical expectations he has of players. They are run into the ground so as to play to his style. This creates two problems; some players just cannot take the punishment and do not last the distance, whilst other just get jack of it. Eriksen looks to be in the latter camp. He really had the look of someone who could not be fudged!

Exactly what happens to Bielsa.

In September and in lacklustre form - and he is talking about the January transfer window 
You wont be here in January the way this is going.

Poch needs to take a leaf out of Ferguson's book. Get on with it or get out. Sir Alex had no problems kicking Van Nistelrooy out the door when he deviated from the project, even if he was widely regarded as one of Europe's finest strikers. Poch should do the same, we are not a coherent team anymore, it's like most of them wants to look good rather than do good. We look laboured doing the simplest of things, and I'm not talking about (just) tonight. I've mentioned - jokingly - earlier that Alli should never have been a Fifa feature, everything since then has had the YouTube-stink about it. Even simple passes are to be executed with 110% flair, and it has been going on for too long to be a blip. I would also say that Eriksen is doing himself no favours to make his dream move come true. Good luck getting 300K per week in Madrid when you have been playing below par for the majority of an entire year. It's not like he's not trying though, it's just like he's utterly unfocused. I feel sorry for Poch about this, he'll get critizised regardless whether he picks him or bench him. But when a professional and main corner taker blows a corner kick 30 yards too far, something's not right. You won't see a more pathetic attempt in the entire league system, including women and under-16's. Positives are that the only way from this is upwards, plus we won't be seeing further strain on our wage budget by improved contracts for a while, I'd reckon.

Blimey, basically writing this season off.
I’m desperate to know exactly what is going on behind the scenes. I think it’s very clear that a number of players don’t want to be here, but I’m intrigued as to exactly how that’s playing out and and how it’s affecting everyone. E.g. why was Alli so brick tonight?
If it’s that bad, shouldn’t Poch just put the guilty parties in the reserves and promote some youth in the interim? Can’t be too much worse than things as they are.

wow, he really said that today, with the squad we have?
balls as big as lemons
I bet with the contract we gave him sacking him would cost us a fortune
I think it’s very clear this isn’t about the quality of the squad, it’s about the commitment of the squad. We know at least 4 first teamers have wanted to leave, and rightly or wrongly that seems to be having a big impact on the squad, the manager, and ultimately the performances.

He wants out, he really wants out and if that’s the case he should grow a pair of balls and resign, not wait to be sacked for a compensation payout and show respect to the club, Tottenham Hotspur is bigger than Mauricio Pochettino will ever be.

Arthur Rowe
yes it is, and as well as he’s done, as long as Levy is around and we stick to the plan, our trend will remain upward

This. This. THIS. We have a number of players in and around 30 now who will be thinking they won’t prolong their careers playing under Poch.
And Southampton banged in a hatful tonight...

Makes you wonder what good he will do at Madrid don’t it if he is such a one trick pony, they won’t allow him to build a young team from scratch, right now I’m not sure he would last a year there.
