Big news out of the world of football yesterday, but hardly surprising, Jose Mourinho was sacked as Manchester United manager.
It appeared that the last straw came in the shape of a 3-1 loss to rivals Liverpool in which the Merseyside team managed over 30 shots at goal.
However, with this Man United vacancy comes a whole wave of new rumours linking Tottenham’s Pochettino to the job (The Mirror).
Poch has long since been tied to the Real Madrid and United job (The Mirror), but has remained at Tottenham every single time.
Spurs fans will be hoping this won’t cause any disruption during their busy Christmas period, but ever the professional, Poch is unlikely to flinch.
The Argentine signed a new five year deal only this summer, so should be in North London for seasons to come.
One former Tottenham players isn’t happy with the rumours though, as Graham Roberts called out the media on Twitter for attempting to upset the club.
Ha ha ha ha total rubbish
