Mauricio Pochettino has been sacked by Tottenham after five years in charge of the club. Pochettino led Spurs to top-four finishes in four of his five seasons in charge, as well as their first Champions League final in the 2018/19 campaign. However, Tottenham have won just five matches this season and chairman Daniel Levy said a change had to be made in the "club's best interests". Tottenham enjoyed a hugely successful European campaign last season, with dramatic wins over Manchester City and Ajax in the knockout stages earning them a place in the final, where they were beaten 2-0 by Liverpool. After that defeat, Pochettino warned Spurs faced a "painful" rebuild, with several senior players reaching the last year of their contracts. But he has been forced to rely on several players whose deals expire at the end of the season after the club endured another quiet summer in the transfer market. Their domestic form has been poor for most of 2019, and since a 3-1 win over Leicester on February 10, Spurs have won just six of their 24 Premier League matches. They are currently 14th in the table and were knocked out of the Carabao Cup by Colchester. Pochettino's staff - Jesus Perez, Miguel D'Agostino and Antoni Jimenez - have also left the club. Jose Mourinho has been installed as the early favourite to replace Pochettino. Daniel Levy said removing Pochettino as manager was in the 'club's best interests' In a statement released by Tottenham on Tuesday evening, Levy said: "We were extremely reluctant to make this change and it is not a decision the board has taken lightly, nor in haste. "Regrettably domestic results at the end of last season and beginning of this season have been extremely disappointing. "It falls to the board to make the difficult decisions - this one made more so given the many memorable moments we have had with Mauricio and his coaching staff - but we do so in the club's best interests. "Mauricio and his coaching staff will always be part of our history. I have the utmost admiration for the manner in which he dealt with the difficult times away from a home ground whilst we built the new stadium and for the warmth and positivity he brought to us. "I should like to thank him and his coaching staff for all they have contributed. They will always be welcome here. "We have a talented squad. We need to re-energise and look to deliver a positive season for our supporters." https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11675/11865128/mauricio-pochettino-sacked-by-tottenham

There is time for everything. Time to smile and frown. Time to cry and time to life. Time to come and time to go! It was his time to go, so he left. |

This bro made Tottenham what it's today. Football Clubs are just like females that dump your ass once your sex prowess gets diminished. Best of luck bro. You will always remain one of the best football coaches ever. |
