Mauricio Pochettino

For all the re-evaluation people give Poch these days, it has to be said we still seem incapable of reaching the heights he took us to, despite (supposedly) having more resources.

I'm not saying people should still be singing his name at games, but I think much more respect needs to be given when speaking about him and his time here. And i'm one that raised flaws/issues that i saw at the time (and i got pelters at times for doing so).

He had the best first team we have assembled in decades mate.

We will likely build a better team in next couple of years but a lot of that depends on how some of our current players step up and how we replace Son/Kane in long term.

Very much a right man, right place, right time for us, my but has always been
- He did really well for us, with a very good side
- He built on an upwards trend the club had been on for some time (BMJ/Harry)
- His limitations with us and post us have been proven
- His time ultimately has led us to a huge rebuild and it's taken a long time to get there (a lot of that is on the club itself)
- My biggest beef with him is in the end, he did the Conte thing, waited to be fired, both knew they were done/burnt out. Poch leaving that summer after the final, he would be seen how some people perceive.

He's was not the messiah, had he converted a few of those "almost", it would be a very different story, but that's Spurs
