Spurs fans have been reacting to a video of Mauricio Pochettino on Twitter alongside recent quotes the former Lilywhites manager about his time at the North London club.
The video was posted by LastWordonSpurs and shows Pochettino and his staff celebrating the win over Ajax in last year’s Champions League semi-final and is coupled with some quotes from the Argentinian boss. He said: “I feel very proud with the success we had, to take Tottenham to a different level. To play Champions League for three or four years and finish above Arsenal many times was a great legacy for us,” as per the In the Pink podcast (via Sky Sports).
The 47-year-old was sacked by Spurs in November after a dreadful start to the season which saw them slip to 14th in the Premier League table, but he is still fondly remembered by fans of the North London club. The win against Ajax was no doubt one of many highlights for Pochettino during his time there, and the video of his post-match celebrations has got a lot of fans upset.
Do you think Pochettino will join Manchester United?
Yes

These Spurs fans clearly still love Pochettino for the work he did as manager and enjoyed the video of his celebrations.
What do we think?
It will no doubt be tough for Spurs fans to cope should Pochettino make a return to the Premier League next season and with Manchester United continuing to be linked with him, it seems as if a return could be on the cards.
