‘Pochettino is the best thing that’s happened to Spurs in 20 years’ – Crouch shrugs off form wobble

The former Tottenham striker considers current struggles to be a “blip” and feels changes are required elsewhere in north London, not in the dugout

Mauricio Pochettino is “the best thing that has happened to Tottenham in 20 years”, says Peter Crouch, with the north London club told they need to avoid making any changes in the dugout.

Spurs have found a coach that is highly regarded, and one that guided them to the Champions League final in 2018-19.

Pochettino’s services are courted by other leading sides across Europe, with talk of interest from Manchester United and Real Madrid never far away, but he is tied to a long-term contract.
