Mauricio Pochettinos focus is not on winning domestic cup competitions, something journalist and Tottenham fan Andrew Warshaw cannot get on board with. In fact, the boss comments ignores a proud history of winning6
READ MORE: Ray Parlour staggered Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino said winning cups only builds egos
Everyone knows what Pochettino meant. He has worked miracles at Spurs with a net spend that is a fraction of that of our rivals. In one sense, he is over-achieving big-time. No other manager could have done what he has. But as one newspaper remarked after the Palace game, everyone needs an ego boost from time to time.To suggest the so-called lesser trophies no longer really matter in the long term showed an uncharacteristic lack of understanding about what it means to write the clubs name into the annals of cup history, especially for those of us who may soon get too old to enjoy it. Call me a romantic old emotional fuddy-duddy, a deluded traditionalist. But its part of our psyche and in my blood.
A history of winning
Two league titlesEight FA CupsFour League CupsThe Cup Winners Cup (they became the first British club to triumph in Europe)Two UEFA CupsLet me ask those who disagree, including my dog-walking buddy Simon (who describes the FA cup as a second-rate tournament) and my local car tyre dealer Steve both equally as passionate as me the following questions. Can Spurs win the Premier league or the Champions League this season? Answer: highly unlikely. Was the FA Cup, with two-thirds of Premier League teams already knocked out, therefore a more realistic proposition? Answer: of course. In fact, following the semi-final League Cup defeat at Chelsea, it was perhaps the ONLY proposition.All the more reason to treat it with maximum seriousness. Of course had Tripps (aka Kieran Trippier) not missed that penalty, things might have turned out differently. Probably would have. He apparently rarely misses in training but he must have been feeling the pressure and there is a large body of opinion which feels it should have been taken by a more likely scorer. Had Christian Eriksen been on the pitch, would he have been the one to step up in Harry Kanes absence? But Eriksen, the only truly creative game-changer we had available, wasnt even on bench (too tired, too risky, said Poch), while neither Harry Winks nor Danny Rose came off it despite chants from the Spurs faithful to bring Rose on.Those travelling fans clearly knew what the occasion meant. It meant another step towards glory. Another step towards cementing that winning mentality Spurs have long been accused of lacking. But Simon and Steve, both younger than me, would still opt to win this weeks two league games rather than drop points and still be in the FA Cup.6READ MORE:Mauricio Pochettino has promised to stick with Tottenham until he achieves all of the clubs goals
The fifth-round draw, seeing Chelsea locked with Man United, has made the disappointment even harder to bear and only re-inforced the sense of what might have been. It is interesting to note thatOle Gunnar Solskjrhas just reiterated how important the FA cup is to him. We’ve got to look at ‘can we win something this year? he said. Hear hearFootballmay indeed be a business and Spurs may have bigger fish to fry than concentrating on domestic cups. I welcome that wholeheartedly. What Poch has done and is doing is a massive achievement in the circumstances. Earning the right to be called Londons top club has been a long time coming and is largely down to him and his staff. Long may it continue after years of being overshadowed by Arsenal and Chelsea. But the last time I checked, history remembered trophy winners, not perennial top-four finishers.
