Tottenham’s Mauricio Pochettino Sacking ‘Out Of Order’, Says Jamie Carragher

Tottenham’s sacking of Mauricio Pochettino was ‘out of order’, says Jamie Carragher, while Harry Redknapp insists the players got the Argentine sacked.

Pochettino was sacked by Tottenham on Tuesday evening after five years in charge of the club following a poor start to the season, which has seen them win just five matches.

Despite failing to win a trophy, Pochettino led Spurs to top-four finishes in four of his five seasons – as well as their first Champions League final in the 2018/19 campaign.

In a statement released by Tottenham, chairman Daniel Levy said a change had to be made in the “club’s best interests”.

Sky Sports News understands former Chelsea and Manchester United manager, Jose Mourinho, is a serious contender to replace Pochettino.

Tottenham’s decision to sack Pochettino is “really strange” and “out of order”, according to Sky Sports’ Jamie Carragher.

“It’s a massive shock. There’s no doubt Spurs have made a poor start to the season and had a poor 2019 domestically, but I think the job Mauricio Pochettino has done is miraculous,” Carragher said on Sky Sports News.

“The timing is very strange. I’m shocked that it’s sacking and when I first heard the news I thought it may have been a mutual agreement.

“The fact he’s been sacked – I find that really, really strange and I also think it’s a bit out of order considering the job he’s done.

“I think he should have been given until the end of the season to try and get Tottenham back where they should be and where Tottenham should be really is not actually in the top four.

“I’m not trying to patronise them, but in terms of finances and what Pochettino’s done with the financial restraints he’s had at that club is just unbelievable.

“Tottenham should be a top-six club but he’s made them a top-four club and also a club who almost won the title, almost won the Champions League.

“People may say he never won anything, but considering what he had at his disposal, in terms of the size of the squad, just shows Pochettino’s quality as a manager. He certainly deserved to see out the season and get as close as possible to the Champions League.”
