Tottenham determined to make Mauricio Pochettino their new manager

Tottenham are determined to conclude a deal to make Southampton boss Mauricio Pochettino their new manager by the end of the week, according to Sky Sports News’ Jim White.

The 42-year-old Argentinian has emerged as chairman Daniel Levy’s principal target and is considered to have been his preferred choice since Tim Sherwood was sacked after the final game of the season on May 13

hmm... I dont think its an improvement for Spurs. I can foresee another 5-6-7 finish.

Only top coaches like LVG and Simeone can improve Spurs.

Did the most talking, has the least to show for it. What a specialist in failure.



Rofl, the look on Guardiola's face. Priceless.

Also, he pretty much nailed every detail that makes Klopp...well, Klopp.

Couldn't agree more. I think Levy should have done everything in his power to get Rafa Benitez. I like Pochettino but there are no expectations at Southampton, while the expectations at Tottenham are unreasonably high. The English press started printing headlines like "AVB has 3 games to save his job" after he had been managing the club for a month.

Levy should've wait a little longer imo, at least till WC ends.

Lucescu rumoured to leave Shakhtar Donetsk due to events in Ukraine. He is the manager you need. Definitely a top manager, also one of the best in my book.

So that's how it all unravels. First the manager, then they'll lose Shaw/Lallana/Schneiderlin. RIP Southampton ;__;

I really hope the rumors about Arsenal and Antoine Griezmann are true.

Barcelona preparing €25m move for Sevilla’s Ivan Rakitic
Barcelona have joined Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Liverpool and Manchester United in the race to sign Sevilla captain, Ivan Rakitic, but the Blaugrana are prepared to offer upwards of €25 million, which is, at this point, the closest club has come to his €40 million release clause.

Barcelona in the midst of a revolution as they refuse to suffer through another trophy-less season and according to Catalan-based Spanish sports daily, Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona are willing to pay top money for the Croatian international midfielder.

However, Real Madrid have not given up their pursuit, as Real Madrid president, Florentino Perez recently admitted in regards to the statement that Rakitic was born to play for Real Madrid, “Well, I want players who can win the Balón d’Or.”

I just checked out the bloomberg sports statistics and saw that Pizarro was leading the world in "conversion" this year Here.
Coincidentially I had looked for his goal per minute but havent found it yet (does somebody know a source?). when I watched Bayern and he was subbed in for 10 minutes he very often scored.
What does Conversion mean? Goals divided by chances?

really hard to find "goals per minute". last year he supposedly needed 58 miutes per goal or assist, which was second best to Messi. of course he played much much less

just checked squawka.com
it says Pizarro played 17 games in Bundesliga, 692 minutes exactly. Scored 10 goals. Total shots 24 with 77% accuracy.
Don't know about other competitions.

Probably just been told "you have to finish top 4 next season" lololol. Spurs so funny :D

Great manager, will be sacked by January as Spurs will be 6th and not looking likely to get 4th which is right. Man Utd Man City Chelsea Liverpool Arsenal are all above spurs thats 5 teams, to make top 4 is impossible since they simply wasted that 100million from Bale.

Pochettino could easily finish Europa every season and give it a good go in cups though.
