The Bayern game is a dead rubber: both teams have already qualified for the next stage and Spurs can't finish top of the group even if we win. So we'll probably field a lot of young players - maybe even 17 year old Troy Parrott as striker.They're knocking plenty of goals past fodder teams but they always did that under Pochettino until last six months. Can remember them beating likes of Stoke by ridiculous scores every season when they were in the prem and Stoke would regularly take points off the other top teams.
Their performance at Man. United was utterly dismal (although of course Man. United out of nowhere suddenly look a pretty good team) so those are sort of matches you really need to judge him.
There next three are Bayern Munich away, Wolves away and Chelsea at home who are having a little wobble so that will be good test to see if he's properly improved mentality of the team.
But yes, the Wolves and Chelsea games will be a good test.
