Not only Pochettino but also his assistant Jesus Perez and the rest of his backroom staff have also been relieved of their duties.

Reasons for firing:

  • Disappointing domestic results at the end of last season and start of this season - Spurs have won only 3 of their opening 12 Premier League games this season and are in 14th spot.
2019-2020: 14th Spot
2018-2019: 4th Spot
2017-2018: 3rd Spot
2016-2017: 2nd Spot
2015-2016: 3rd Spot
2014-2015: 5th Spot
  • Champions League - Thrashed 7-2 by Bayern Munich

  • Knocked out of the League Cup by fourth-tier Colchester United

He helped the club to punch massively above their weight for years.

Many fans think that Poch had done enough to get a chance to turn it around in the first sustained period of poor form during his time at the Club.

Spurs would have a tough task at hand of finding a better replacement.

P. S. Mourinho is expected to take over.

Sacked at United - Hired at Spurs! Amazing dynamics at play. It will be interesting to see if he manages to turn the tables and land Spurs again in the top 4.

Jose Mourinho: “I am excited to be joining a club with such a great heritage and such passionate supporters,” he said. “The quality in both the squad and the academy excites me. Working with these players is what has attracted me.”
