Tottenham Hotspur lost their Premier League game 2-0 to Chelsea and with that Mauricio Pochettino’s side theoretically crashed out fo the title race.
Next up they take on Arsenal in the North London Derby and if they fail to pick up three points in this game too then Mauricio Pochettino will surely have to answer a lot of questions.
While many people have blamed the management for nothing bringing in new players during the past two transfer windows but according to former Gunner Ian Wright, it is Mauricio Pochettino who is to be blamed for the whole catastrophe.
“You know something? You’ve to give them credit simply because they were six points off up to a point, with the fact that they’ve signed no one and had injuries to key players and they were still amongst it,” Wright said on his official YouTube channel.
“But when you look at the might Manchester City and Liverpool have, they are just hanging on really.
“And what we saw with them losing against Chelsea, they’re going to come up short simply because they do not have enough. They do not have enough. And plus their manager, as soon as they are around it.
“I’d hate to see Unai Emery, if we’re six points off the top, saying it’s going to take five to ten years for us to win the league. It’s six points man.
“He’s giving them the license to say “we are not ready yet, if it doesn’t happen, don’t worry about it”.
“It’s the same thing that happened with them last time, he came out and said the same kind of thing “we’re not ready yet”, and then they fall off again.
“So Tottenham and their players have got a natural kind of excuse because their manager says they can’t win it until the next five or ten years. I’d be disappointed if my manager is saying that.”
Unai Emery has come out to back Mauricio Pochettino claiming that the Argentine is still young and will most certainly be winning a lot of trophies in the future.
But if Spurs keep coming up with such mediocre seasons one after the other, we are not too sure just how long Mauricio Pochettino will last at the London outfit.
