Tottenham news: Mauricio Pochettino wants to emulate what Arsene Wenger did at Arsenal and stay at White Hart Lane for 20 years
Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino wants to emulate what Arsene Wenger did at Arsenal and stay in charge of the club for over two decades – but would like to ask the Frenchman whether it was ultimately worth it.Wenger, who left the Gunners at the end of last season after a 22-year stay, was heavily criticised for the latter part of his stay as he failed to regularly challenge for the Premier League and Champions League.3

The backdrop to that, though, was the club’s move to the Emirates Stadium, which significantly cut their spending power and Spurs are set to enter a similar situation as costs for their new stadium have escalated to over 1billion.Pochettino has been heavily linked with moves to Manchester United and Real Madrid, though says he sees his long-term future at Spurs – not that he would want it to end like Wenger’s reign across north London did.“I have massive, huge respect for Arsene Wenger because when you talk about 22 years in charge of a club like Arsenal and all that happened in that period, you need to be so good.3

“Not only a fantastic coach but a great human being to display the values you have. It’s amazing.“That is why it is a little bit sad the way it ended at his club.“It shows how difficult it is this business, a business, it is a passion.“All that Arsene Wenger gave for Arsenal, to finish in the way it finished, yes, was a little bit unfair.“And I think he deserves an amazing recognition about his work.3

“Only I hope, if I have the opportunity to talk with him is to ask if, ‘Was it worth it to do?’, I don’t know what he would say, I would like to ask one day“What I saw from my point of view, it was so unfair how the people treated him and talked. But we’ll see.“I hope, or I wish to be here 20 years, and decide to leave or to finish my career here.Spurs remain firmly in the title race and find themselves just six points off the leaders Liverpool.They are also in the last four of the Carabao Cup and have progressed to the knock-out stages of the Champions League. And Pochettino says he is relishing working under that pressure, and wants to help the north London side achieve glory.He continued: “I am so focused here, and want to help the club to achieve what the club want to be inhistory, because we are helping the club to finish all the facilities and maybe we can win in that way.“It would be fantastic. I am so happy to be here. I am so happy to work in that pressure. Why not.”
