If the guy was on minimum wage I’d understand your sentiment, but the guys a multimillionaire so please stop with the family stuff, they get paid enough to deal with it, and everything else that the job brings.
Jose Mourinho | Spurs manager

Based on what exactly? He's not won the trophy in ages and couldn't get past Sevilla with United.
Imagine if he wins the Champions league with Spurs.. Its not impossible they were in the final last year and Jose has won it with lesser teams
Yep it was Pogba's fault he played both Mctominay and Herrera in a back 3 whilst his 30+ million defender was on the bench.
It was Pogba's fault we kept playing Matic despite him being slower than an oil tanker with a full load
It was Pogba's fault........
You get the point none of this was Pogba's fault
Yeah also not understanding the Jose is going to do well argument. He had an exciting team at United especially when he was second and it still went sideways... The bus parking wasnt as bad when he finished 2nd, infact they played some good football at time but gradually it is as if his defensive mentality of Jose eventually came to the surface. Not sure Spurs just like United fans will want to put up with defensive football long term. Sissoko will be happy though.
He gets paid enough to not miss his family? Weird post.
Yeah exactly
I'll be very surprised if he doesn't win a trophy or two with Spurs. Poch winning none in 5 years with that panel of players was underachieving in my view.
Next sacking United do has to be Woodward. Someone in that chief executive role that has a clue is more likely to be a catalyst to sort themselves out.
Poor Spurs fans, welcome to our hell of last year!
It's likely to go well at first, I expect a massive improvement in their performances and results for the second half of the season, but the question is how quickly will the wheels start coming off.
What's going to happen in the summer with Eriksen, Alderweireld and Vertonghen all likely leaving? Is Levy finally going to open the cheque book to replace them?
If they start next season badly then obviously it'll snowball like it did at Chelsea and with us and he'll end up sacked before the end of the season.

See this opinion I do not understand. These players did not have an issue with Poch, these players have an issue with Levvy and not paying them what they are worth. You could put Sir Alex in charge of this lot and unless they're fighting for the league title, its not going to change their attitudes.
This has everything to do with piss poor back end management not the manager.
Please take him.
Jose > ManUtd
it's a little patheticUntil he gets twatted by a side like Wolves and starts throwing players under the bus.
Yes and he did well in his first season or two with us. Then got bored living in a hotel after a year and decided it was time to start causing trouble, to provoke the board into eventually sacking him with a monster pay-off.
Thank you.
He was poor and not good enough. You're clearly dressing it up in a manner to make to make it seem more impressive than it was.
And him being the best by far is very debateable. He won one trophy of any note - the Europa League while finishing 6th. And the league cup that just makes up the numbers. LVG won the the FA cup, also finished top 4 once and spent much lesser. Both werent good enough but people banging Mourinho's drum in this choice between the lesser evils makes little sense. What next? Ole is the best manager we've had out of him and Moyes. Whoah!!
The team is far better than 14th, I just feel it's got nothing much to do with the manager and everything to do with players wanting out and not getting that move. Changing Pochettino, who the players supposedly invited out for dinner because they had no issue with him. To Jose doesnt change the fact a lot of the players want to leave, do they still want to leave? Most likely, they want pay rises or a last big contract, or to win a trophy or two. Jose could get a Christmas clear out however, move on the players that want to go, bring in a Jose signing or two. This would help a lot, but it also would have helped Pochettino.
This is actually a very interesting question, wonder if he will look to bring in someone close to the club. What is Scott Parker up to these days?

I mean 6th in the league playing shit on stick football isn't something i would call 'done well'. Yes he won two cups but the football on show was pathetic for most times.
Second season until December we played well and then it was the race for second. Overall decent season but i think with that squad (majority were his players) that was fair result
Oh yeah it's all Pogba's fault that Mourinho managed the team miles worse than Klopp and Pep did their respective clubs. Or that he signed Fred , Lindelof etc while spending 300 plus million and got no tune out of them. Or that he publically lashed out at our other players. Or that he signed Pogba himself. Yep, all Pogba's doing that.
...then takes a generation for the club to recover. In the meantime Liverpool rule England and Europe for a generation....?
Is that what you want? Have you even thought about it?
You will rue the fecking day you wrote that post.
Is it just me or does this seem like a bad fit?
Jose's style does not seem similar to the style Spurs have played under Pooch. In addition Jose is use to building teams thru new players that fit his image, not molding what he has to greater heights.
Anyone want to share what i am missing... ?

Don't see Spurs challenging Liverpool and City. It's possible given the great work Pochettino did but I doubt it. I fancy our chances with the right manager more. So no, he will not the the fecking day FFS.
Sadly were going to see a lot of United fans cheering on Spurs now.
Not sure it is about style at the moment. It is about winning mentality. Levy wants Spurs to win something. Then it will be down to Levy to sign the players for Spurs to progress even further. We got second with him and should have pushed on from there but decided to be happy with that. If they can win something that will be a big weight off their shoulders.
We had no choice but to sack him though did we? Seems a bit of a rewriting of history to say it like that. He had to go, or there was no telling just how low he was going to have us finish. He wanted out. For me it almost like he got 2nd and decided he was happy to go, if only he had done.
feck, that music
It should be played as a coffin enters the crematorium. Who at Spurs thought that was apt?
They played it on Talksport and they said it was like music you would go through the curtains for the last time.

So monies the answer to everything.
And I thought I was a cynical cnut
Who will now finish higher in the table, Spurs or Utd?
The Jose love-in on a United forum makes me throw up a bit in my mouth. Man left us in a well of crap so deep it'd take even Fergie 2 seasons to crawl out of - and this after being thankfully refused Boateng, Perisic, Willian and Fonte (and sale of Martial blocked). Yet, some of our "fans" seem to think he was great for us and seem to actively be hoping he succeeds at Spurs. There truly is no accounting for idiots.
They still have the unhappier players. It comes down to if he can motivate that squad which is all Poch's, to play for him. The style will either suit them or not.
I still feel we're the more progressive team right now
Is squishy banned? Haven't seen any posts from him
Don't think he'll do well. Not sure if he is still has it in him, but if he does, it's certainly not going to be the case without proper spending. Spending Tottenham aren't known for.
LVG was better imo. Never feared a top 6 match with him in charge, we pissed on City, Liverpool and Arsenal whereas Mourinho's record was dreadful. LVG was let down by recruitment which reflected in not being able to beat lower/midtable teams, but he was a great tactician.
And FFS Charity shield is not a trophy.
Yep.
Post was kind of tongue in cheek.
Disagree with your last point. Utd fans were already cheering for Spurs under Poch. That's all over now. Far more interested in picking the meat off the carcass he creates in alienating Son etc
