Tottenham Hotspur fans still have a lot of love for Mauricio Pochettino for all he did at the club.
The Argentine took the Spurs reins back in 2014 and took the club on an exhilarating ride for the next five-and-a-half years.
Under Pochettino, Tottenham challenged for the Premier League title and even reached the Champions League final in 2019.
Sadly, his time at Spurs came to an end in November 2019, and his sacking remains controversial in the eyes of many Lilywhites fans.
And despite a number of instances where Tottenham found themselves needing a new manager and Pochettino was available, no reunion has taken place as of yet.
And when the 52-year-old took the Chelsea reins last year, it almost felt like a betrayal as he joined one of Spurs’ bitter London rivals.
However, Pochettino’s latest appointment – as per multiple reports – has been largely welcomed by Tottenham supporters.
