Which season did he tinkle away ? I thought he finished 3rd last season becoming the first Spurs Manager to qualify for the Champions league proper. In his first season he finished 5th and reached a cup final.Since Pooch has taken the decision to be highly critical of Janssen today. Which is fair comment. I assume he accepts that hes had a terrible fudging month with brick tactics and brick excuses. I assume he's also accepting some responsibility for buying brick players and leaving us with a tiny squad. Hopefully he'll take the opportunity to sort himself out on the training ground before he tinkles away the whole season again
As for buying players , he buys them to train and show what they can do. Jannsen has fallen far short of the level expected. Not sure he has been "highly" critical rather he just said Janssen needs to show more.
At the level we are buying there is always a risk. What is impressive is that Poch is very decisive and moves on players who don't make the cut very quickly.
