Are we seeing parallels to what happened with Klopp at Dortmund? Where he's maximised what he can achieve at Spurs, and now the only way is down at this point?

I think his frustration is that these players haven't been binned off with the fees recouped being handed to him to replenish and rejuvenate the squad. Levy has really played a blinder here.....I think so. I don't think he's as invested in building the squad further than this, happy to just see Eriksen, Alderweirald Vertonghan go in a year because he probably won't be there either.
I’d think so.Surely Madrid bound? Zidanes not lasting til Xmas.
They’ve finished 3rd twice in 30 years, but I agree that he’s done well for them to be considered a “top” team, with most predicting top 4.Think they'll have a bit of a down season but still get top 4 and be solid enough in the end. They've definitely peaked with him though IMO, and while Lo Celso and Ndombele are very good signings addressing their lack of midfield previously, they still lack something in there. Doesn't necessarily mean he'd leave, but I think he might want to. He did really well to turn them into consistent 3rd place finishers, but it'll need something different to get them to be more than that, and that just needs time and more and more investment and more rebuilds to push on. Not sure he's that committed to Spurs to see that through (or if he can even reach that level).
CL masked their PL form, they been pretty shit since January.Football is a crazy game. Months ago he was in a Champions League final with it all looking great for Spurs.
Going off reports he doesn't seem settled, rumours of him leaving coupled with meetings with Levy etc.
E man, E.I think so. I don't think he's as invested in building the squad further than this, happy to just see Eriksen, Alderweirald Vertonghan go in a year because he probably won't be there either.
Mou going to RM.Surely Madrid bound? Zidanes not lasting til Xmas.
A manager like what?Hope we get him. Opportunity to get a manager like him doesn’t come around often.
Mou going to RM.
Would be a good scenario for us. He can build on to this team, with a lot of deadwood now gone.He'll replace Ole at the end of the season I reckon.
It really was not all fine. If anything the cup run has masked the problems that they had. Their football was average to poor all season, but at the beginning they were getting results and winning some jammy games. It is why they did not have a lot of draws, and since the new year the results started reflecting the performances. This season they have just continued where they left off, and their performance and results have shown that.Football is a crazy game. Months ago he was in a Champions League final with it all looking great for Spurs.

A manager who has proven he can build a team, work with youngsters and improve players, is an astute tactician. Please let's not use "he hasn't won a trophy" against him - We should have fired LVG and got Klopp when he had the chance and i hope we don't make the same mistake again.A manager like what?
I agree. Poch built his foundation and success at Spurs with almost nothing compared to his rivals. United is like the Disneyland for any manager. He would get much more investment and a flourishing academy to develop players. he would do what Klopp did at Liverpool to United.Would be a good scenario for us. He can build on to this team, with a lot of deadwood now gone.
Hope Jose does to Madrid. Otherwise he's nailed on to replace Zidane.
We still have a managerHopefully we grab him if he does.
What? We do? Feck, nobody told me!We still have a manager

It's not that straight forward. Firing Zidane and buying Pochettino out of his contract would cost nearly what Manchester United paid for Maguire. So maybe they would, but there is a huge financial obstacle in place for that to happen.Surely Madrid bound? Zidanes not lasting til Xmas.
So you would sack a manager who is doing a good job to replace him with a manager fired for not doing his smart arse?What? We do? Feck, nobody told me!
I want to stick with Ole. Considering his player recruitment acumen, I'm excited to see what happens in another transfer window next summer. Don't expect any business to be done in winter unless we are desperate.Hope we get him. Opportunity to get a manager like him doesn’t come around often.
I don't really think Ole is doing a good job nor do I think he'll have done well by the end of the season, and Poch is clearly a far better manager so... Yes?So you would sack a manager who is doing a good job to replace him with a manager fired for not doing his smart arse?
The likes of Juventus PSG and Bayern have let top managers go to get a better one. Plus Poch won’t be fired, plus Ole isnt doing a particularly good job nor is he a top manager, Poch is.So you would sack a manager who is doing a good job to replace him with a manager fired for not doing his smart arse?
