angelman Posted 5 February, 2015 Share Posted 5 February, 2015 Funny how every man and his dog (including some/many Saints supporters) thought that we were relegation favourites, save obviously for MP who thought we had a winning team. But damn, I want Matt to spill the beans about what went on when MP left. If MP is going to give **** interviews like this and be as about as disingenuous as it is possible to be, then it's fair game as to others letting the world know what went on.

Sour Mash Posted 5 February, 2015 Share Posted 5 February, 2015 Matt @majdeano85 @mattletiss7 Poch is a decent chap, Matt. I expect he's been misquoted or mistranslated. He is always very complimentary about people. Matt Le Tissier @mattletiss7 @majdeano85 no hes not. I know how he behaved when he left saints. Just having a look through Le Tiss' twitter, amusing to see that so many Spurs fans think they're now experts on Saints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

svetigpung Posted 5 February, 2015 Share Posted 5 February, 2015 If anyone took over a well performing team that were on a high then it was Poch. Adkins had done all of the hard work (after Pardew had started it off) and got the success and teams spirit in place. Poch walked into a team that had just drawn away at Chelsea and were well and truly on the up. Now he's taken over a team that finished 6:th last season. #PlonkerPoch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redslo Posted 5 February, 2015 Share Posted 5 February, 2015 Well done Matt for putting the egotistical lying pratt in his place. Seldom have I heard such rubbish from an ex-manager re-writing history about his stay here in a vane attempt to excuse the fact that we are above his team on merit. I don't know who he is trying to impress with this garbage, but it certainly doesn't wash with anybody who knows their stuff as far as we're concerned. The truth is that Koeman took over a team that had been decimated by 5 top players leaving, he replaced them and got them playing well immediately and took us up a level in the process. Pochettino with Spurs inherited a team already comprising several top players brought in with the proceeds of the mega-bucks sale of Bale and he cannot get them firing properly. Luckily for him, he inherited a decent young player in Kane who has hit devastating form, and another player in Eriksen who also is bang on form. Without the two of them, Spurs would be struggling to be in the top 10. The reality is that anybody in English football could have told him before he left us that Spurs is the poison chalice, in that their fans have expectations of at least a top four position. The fact that we occupy that position since he left instead of his team rankles with him so much, that he has to try and justify our success as being largely down to him, whilst simultaneously telling everybody how much difficulty he has faced at Spurs. You're just making yourself look a pratt, Poch. Don't forget Lloris. Those three seem to be virtually the entire team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 7 February, 2015 Share Posted 7 February, 2015 Hope Lucas misses the game against us with that knock, he's a handy player. Can't imagine we will see either of our old boys on the field, if Liverpool use their third sub it will probably be Markovic. Maybe Johnson if they're winning.

I'm feeling a sad f*ck, so here goes: The number of time Spurs have this season, scored an equaliser or winning goal after the 80th minute. West Ham (winner on 93rd minute, Dier) Aston Villa (winner on 90th minute, equaliser on 84th minute (Kane, Chadli) Hulll (winner on 90th minute, Eriksen) Swansea (winner on 89th minute, Eriksen) Sunderland (winner on 88th minute, Eriksen) Arsenal (winner on 85th minute, Kane) League Cup: Nottingham Forest (winning goals scored on 83rd and 90th minutes, Soldado, Kane) Sheffield United (winning goal on aggregate on 88th minute, Eriksen) Feck me, that's 6 times in the Prem they've got a late winner!

angelman Posted 7 February, 2015 Share Posted 7 February, 2015 Lallana has only played the full 90mins in 9 games this season. A f*cking awful waste of £25mill. He's done 1061 minutes in the PL. Lovren has done (surprisngly) 1219. I was going to say that he was better value than Lovren, but the amount they have played might suggest otherwise. Lovren has played 44 minutes in the PL since Xmas. Basically they are both really poor value, but do think AL is somewhat a better prospect than DL and has a future at LFC. Whether Lovren does is another matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golac's Iron Gonads Posted 8 February, 2015 Share Posted 8 February, 2015 Also to add to Pochettino's delusions, earlier in the season he claimed Spurs fans only wanted Kane in the starting eleven because he was English, at a time when Kane was only being used as a late sub for Adebayor and spurs were struggling to score.

The money we got out of those deals has set us up nicely and who knows if we would have had this good a season if we hadn't had all of that upheaval. Having said that I don't want to go through it again this summer. I'm pretty much over the whole defectors thing now. Watching Lovren not even make the bench has made it easier. If we finish above Liverpool, Spurs and United I'll have let it go completely. It's just football business, and it seems like our club is better run anyway.
