Poch does want to win Cups and he didn't deceive Edwards



SoccerSouls have got ity all rather wrong in their article this morning.

Why Tottenham Boss Pochettino Is Wrong In His Views About The Domestic Cup Competitions
Actually Pochettino is right. He didn't field a completely different team Jan Vertonghen, Dele Alli and Mousa Dembele all played as did regular Son Heung-min and Kieran Trippier was first choice at the back end of last season and has been playing in the Premier League too.

Spurs are going for all silverware, Pochettino made that clear in his full comment, which SoccerSouls don't reproduce. The comment and implication  that Mourinho selects strong first team XI's in domestic competitions is wrong too.

He has played second teams in this competition in these rounds on a regular basis and yes, to avoid fatigue and to rotate players.

It isn't Pochettino who has it wrong I'm afraid.


HITC haven't fared much better this morning.

Would Marcus Edwards have signed new Tottenham contract if he knew Pochettino's short-term intentions?
Does they seriously think that an agent and player don't sit down with a manager and discuss the future in detail? Do they seriously think Pochettino lies to them or simply trots out the you are in my plans stage?

All parties have a discussion and Pochettino will have been frank with them. he will have told them where he sees Edwards now, how the club plan to develop him and what they expect of the player.

Events dictate what happens, Edwards dictates what happens, to suggest Pochettino has somehow deceived him is plain ridiculous.
