Europa league final
League cup semi's
every time 4th is put on a plate for us.
Verdict is in. He's not good enough. Running up and down the touchline, gesturing at the fans to "cheer", its all desperation. Maybe the fans should gesture to him to manage.
Luis Garcia, He drinks sangria
He came from Barca, to bring us Joy
He's five foot seven, he's football heaven
please don't take my Luis away.

He's also lost a few finals in a row with his previous club.
I think there are more issues as well. In particular his transfer policy. In three transfer windows They only unquestioned success has been Mane. I'm sure no one expected Mane to be so good either, not even Klopp, so he was perhaps luck with that too.

Question marks against Klopp for sure but he is a symptom not the problem.
The basic problem is the club is underfunded

He's also won leagues in Germany also, so he's not always choked, simple fact is our squad is weakest in top 6 and we are trying to punch above our weight in finishing Top 4.

I don't agree with you, except Karius (provided Klavan was only a squad player), his transfers have been good. However, he underestimated the EPL and over estimated his youngsters

But why is it tottenham hasn't really spent much more money than us but are playing much better and also much more consistent than us? granted pochettino has had 1 more season than klopp but resources can't really be used as an excuse if we compare ourselves against tottenham
I honestly can't care less about how many titles Klopp has won in the past...the standard of their league in general and dortmund's resources relative to the rest of the bundesliga(bar bayern) just makes it irrelevant. The thing that concerns me is how we have been playing the same exact way against lower opposition since last season and have not solved the problem. That is completely unacceptable in my book. Conte lost 2 games against pool/arsenal and then changed to 3-4-3 and won something like 13 games straight. What I'm expecting is us at least trying to adapt and doing things differently( with hopefully better results).

I think the job Pochettino has done at Spurs has been incredible if I'm honest. He has taken a team and made them better without spending a boat load of money. He has made them title challengers through coaching and tactical awareness which seems to be a lost art for most modern managers who just want to buy the best players for stupid money. In my opinion Pochettino is the best manager in the league but until they win that elusive first major trophy doubts will always persist.
