If Mauricio Pochettino can get the sack, then we all can because he did a wonderful job at Tottenham.
For its part, one of the keys of Tottenham is that it has players who know each other very well for two or three years. They have not made changes and are managed by the same coach, Mauricio Pochettino. Therefore, they perfectly apply the idea of team and style of play.
I worked with Mauricio Pochettino and even as a player, he had certain mannerisms and his body language. There was so much to learn from.
Working under Pep Guardiola, a chance like that doesn't come along too often. That's no disrespect to Mauricio Pochettino, but the people that Pep has worked with grow as players.
One of the reasons I chose Tottenham is the way Pochettino thinks and how he plays. I really like that.
I had the privilege of working under Mauricio for five-and-a-half years and now, I have to be honest, I never thought I would be managed by Jose Mourinho at Tottenham.
Pochettino is a manager with a lot of character, so Tottenham applies it in the field. That's why they have eliminated big clubs like Manchester City or Ajax.
Mauricio Pochettino - he was my captain at PSG and I always knew he would become a manager. He has taken a lot of influence from Marcelo Bielsa, who was his coach with Argentina; they used to talk about things a lot, and now you can see that his teams are really aggressive, both when attacking and defending.
It was Tottenham at home. I thought: 'Please don't go on about Tottenham, we all know what Tottenham are about. They are nice and tidy but we'll f****** do them.' Alex came in and said: 'Lads, it's only Tottenham.' And that was it! Brilliant!

Fedor is one of the most gentlest giants you ever want to meet. I've got the utmost respect for him.
When we won the league at Tottenham, they came back 2-2 in the last-minute of the game, and they're celebrating - because they're happy to draw against us, obviously. And I remember saying to Mauricio Tarricco, do you realise we only need a point to be Champions? And they all [were really shocked]. So I said 'Yes. Now we're going to celebrate on your pitch. Bye bye!'
I thought I was in good shape. When I was at Burnley, and we got our body fat done, I had a really good percentage. Sean Dyche was happy. I went to Tottenham, and I was well high - I think they pinch you tougher at Tottenham - that's what I think. Unless it was my all-inclusive holiday in Mexico.
Someone like Harry Kane, I can tell you that his mindset will be: 'I'm staying at Tottenham, I'm going to break every single record, I'm going to captain this club into the new stadium.' When you've got a player like him with that mindset, I don't think Tottenham have to worry.
