EPL 19/20

After a tumultuous week Spurs put on a cohesive structured display with good effort and intensity, some key players showed signs of life previously not seen, and we saw flashes of brilliant attack. Sure we faded badly but this was still a promising beginning

Could be. But watching the game we looked more like ourselves. Stories had been coming out during the week about how Poch had progressively lost the dressing room for a number of reasons since the UCL final. The team just looked happier and more together than it has all year. Whether it keeps up remains to be seen. I like that Jose kept wantaway Eriksen on the bench. Send him a signal that he can't say he wants to leave, mail games in and expect to start

I saw a funny tweet a few weeks ago saying Mourinho going to Spurs was like watching Gordon Ramsey go to fix a failing restaurant only to open the storeroom and find a big pile of rotting lemons.
Unless he has promises from Levy to actually spend some money he will hit the same hurdles as his predecessor and that awesome new stadium will be a waste of effort.

Liverpool win again, beating Everton who will be next to change their manager.
Leicester win again as well, as remain 2nd. If Liverpool go tits up (as a large part of me still expects to happen) it would be great if Rodgers and Leicester are the ones to take advantage.

I kind of assume that they're in the same position as Arsenal where they're hamstrung by the debt from the build so can't afford to be splashy.
Question is once they're back in a position to spend, how much damage will have been done. Arsenal at least had fantastic successes before the move to Emirates and one of the great managers to keep them afloat.

Apparently they are not in the same position as Arsenal. Spurs have never been big spenders, it is not just about the transfer fees it is about the wages. Some of the squad are reaching the end of their effectiveness, the defence needs serious rebuilding as it was a hallmark of the early Pochettino teams

It was more that they achieved well above the spend while the stadium was being built but those players then got pissed off that the money wasn’t being spent to go to the next level and buy a cup.
Levy seems to be set on being an anti-Semitic stereotype. -
That would seem unlikely for 2 reasons. (1) I couldn't see Pochettino managing Spurs' biggest rivals, and (2) he would need to refund Tottenham the £12.5m compensation payoff he received when he left the club last month.
I think Poch will take a paid holiday and wait to see what unfolds at the end of the season. The Real Madrid job could become available but I can't see him going to Barcelona for the same reason (he played for and managed Espanyol).
As for Arsenal, Rodgers is now out of the equation but Allegri is available.

Levy seems to be set on being an anti-Semitic stereotype.They failed to refresh the squad, so along with the fact that some of the players think they should be making more than they are (justifiably so in many cases) they seem to have gotten sick of playing for each other. If they don't show serious signs of lifting intensity Jose will have to shift a bunch out. Hard to know who to believe, Levy is infamous for being tight, but Pochettino reportedly was OK with not bringing in new players in some of the previous windows because no one was suitable. It might have been code for "I'm being given no money to spend" and Levy probably held on for better money when he should have got shot of a few players. Either way we need to reinvigorate the squad

We were one down at half time away at West Ham. It has been EIGHT YEARS since we have been behind at half time and come back to win.
20 Mins to go and we are up 1-3!
