Pochettino's heartbreaking final message to Tottenham's players after sacking

Sacked Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino has left a heartbreaking message for his former players after not being able to farewell them all in person.

The Argentinian tactican was dismissed from his role at the North London club on Tuesday night, with Jose Mourinho appointed the club's new coach by the next morning.

With the majority of his senior players on international break at the time of his axing, Pochettino was forced to write a goodbye message on a whiteboard at the club's Enfield Training Centre.
