Mauricio Pochettino would win the Premier League title if he was at Manchester City or Liverpool.
That’s according to former West Ham United and Republic of Ireland striker David Connolly, who watched as Tottenham Hotspur succumbed to a 1-0 defeat at Bournemouth on Saturday.
Spurs would have guaranteed Champions League football next season had they won on the south coast but red cards for Heung-min Son and Juan Foyth killed their chances of that as they fell to Nathan Ake’s late goal.
The Londoners looked set to earn a valiant point in what would have been their first away draw of the season until Ake headed home an injury-time corner for the Cherries.
And Connolly believes it is vitally important the Argentine boss remains in charge so all his hard work is not wasted.
“To me, he’s the sort of figurehead you want leading your football club,” he said.

“He’s a man full of integrity and what a top, top guy.
“I just don’t want it wasted for him.
“Because I feel if he was at another club, a [Manchester] City or a Liverpool, he would be winning the title.”
