Mauricio Pochettino Was So Successful

He Couldn’t Win

Pochettino transformed Tottenham into a club that could not afford to fail, and in doing so guaranteed that he would.
In the long, slow weeks before last season’s Champions League final, Tottenham Manager Mauricio Pochettino did not lose much sleep over his team’s physical state. It was, after all, the end of the season. His players had the miles of nine fierce, relentless months in their legs; their bodies needed a little rest and a little fine-tuning, but that was all.

Instead, he poured all of his energies into sharpening their minds.

Poch was a victim of his own success. He set his own high standards and then fell well well below them.

Levy i guess felt he had to act but the players are the ones who have tacked poch over.

Spurs, my friends, are f a cked.

What success Chronic, he didn`t win a bean, I don`t count a few top four finishes as success. I will shed no tears for him. At least now whatever thinks about Mourinho, Spurs have a manager with a winners mentality at the club.
