Mauricio Pochettino has been hammered for waiting until the summer to take over at Chelsea instead of starting away at Premier League leaders Arsenal.
Stone Mason
Tottenham did well to salvage a draw from their game against Man Utd, particularly after trailing 2-0 at half-time. Ryan Mason undoubtedly elicited an improvement in his players, difficult as that was after they lost 6-1 in their previous match after going 5-0 down in 21 minutes.
So one conclusion can be drawn: Ryan Mason > Cristian Stellini. At the very least as a suitable interim Spurs manager in April 2023, that seems fair.
But Charlie Wyett of The Sun has to take it too far, doesn’t he?
‘So at least Spurs players left the pitch in good spirits although their level of improvement under Mason will properly be tested on Sunday, away to Liverpool.
‘A win there and maybe Mason could get the job for keeps.’
The 31-year-old with no senior management experience in any permanent capacity should get the job if he beats a Liverpool side Spurs are above? As much as appointing proven, born winners has been an issue for Daniel Levy in the past, it doesn’t seem as though doing the exact opposite on the basis of two games is a great idea.
Sanch dressing
Fun as goals are, the subsequent celebrations are obviously the single most important thing about football. The Daily Mirror website don’t need telling twice, as a headline of ‘Jadon Sancho’s sneaky gesture spotted by fans after scoring Man Utd opener vs Tottenham’ shows.
The ‘sneaky gesture’? Sancho ‘cupped his ear’. Except he didn’t. Not really. He sort of put one finger behind his ear, which is specifically not cupping it. And not particularly ‘sneaky’ either. Semantics, but still.
And how did fans ‘spot’ this? Because he did it straight after scoring. Like players do. And because the cameras tend to focus on players who score in the immediate aftermath of a goal, it was seen far and wide.
It’s almost as if it wasn’t all that ‘sneaky’ if he did it when he knew people would be watching, nor did it have to be ‘spotted’ by some sort of eagle-eyed spy sifting through the footage.
Celebrate good times, come on
You thought the Daily Mirror website was done, didn’t you? Daft, daft, daft. They’re never done.

It is pretty standard fare by this point: every other Mirror website headline includes some evocative…
