The transfer window’s opening hours haven’t left the gaffer happy.
“I think he (Spurs chairman Daniel Levy) and a lot of people now realise it was a massive mistake. I hope that we fix the problem for the next season.
“For me it’s not common sense, and we need to go back quick, hope they have a good conversation at the Premier League and go back quickly.
“It’s a problem for a team like us and it’s so clear that I cannot be happy as a coach that in the last three weeks clubs from Europe can unsettle your team.”

Mauricio Pochettino is clearly seething, having been left with an unsettled Spurs squad, despite the Premier League window being shut.
Christian Eriksen has become an unwanted gift. The Dane’s stats have been sensational in the past, but ‘turning it on’ against the Villa is one thing, but looking like a Japanese tourist strolling down Oxford Street when facing the champions at the Etihad is another.
Poch’s line, ‘for a team like us‘ speaks volumes. And it is a very deliberate phrasing. Levyologists seize upon this to remind the rest us, that we ought to know our place.
Cobblers to that.
3 first choice picks over the line (after the third time of asking) and still Mauricio is pushing to make this club his own.
This boy is getting interesting.
