They're not trying to win cups and trophies straight away though. Everything that's been said is that they're going to spend big but there's an absolute fortune that needs to be spent on facilities, scouting and everything else that goes into making a successful team first. You'll need hundreds of millions just to catch up to everyone else as far as they're concerned. Pochettino is clearly talented enough to win trophies anyway iyam. Has a pretty excellent record of improving younger players too which is ideal as far as the Longstaffs are concerned since there was a genuine worry that they'd never get anywhere under Bruce. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d like to the results of that poll It’s been thrown out by some on twitter and even a few of the lads I know have mentioned it. I agree it’s a minority but I just don’t understand the feeling at all, he basically won the lottery getting the job in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 13842 Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Not being told what’s happening is a bit of a cunt move from Ashley tbf but I can’t say I have much sympathy for Bruce. He knew fine well what he was signing up for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 32936 Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 There's a lot of people to feel sorry for at the minute but Bruce doesn't really fall into that category as I'm sure he'd be the first to admit himself. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Bull as well at Leipzig as at Salzburg have a habit of appointing young and upcoming managers. Rose is doing a great job at Gladbach now and his successor at Salzburg seems a good prospect as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However you indicated that Naglesmann was inferior as he hadn’t won a trophy in the ‘3 or 4 years’ he’s been a manager. I was simply pointing out that neither had St Poch and he is an 11 year managerial veteran…. That’s all, no attack on Pochettino. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
