Talk:Mauricio Pochettino

Italian descent

This article as the one of the wikipedia in spanish language is categorized as Argentinean of italian descend, but i can't find any word about it in the article (nore in the spanish's one as well).

As Pochettino is an italian word it is supposed that family surname was italian and looking at italian White Pages i found a lot of users with that family name, otherwise as italian and spanish immigration in Argentina represents the 97.5% of argentinean people and given that is a peculiarity of all spanish people having two surnames i could not find out the solution about the question: have Mauricio Pochettino italian descend or not? Any source? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Accadueo (talk • contribs) 14:21, 14 May 2016 (UTC)

Harry Kane?

I think the comment on Kane replacing Soldado as a "gamble" that paid off does not reflect what really happened. Kane became first choice ahead of Soldado under Sherwood. Pochettino then made Soldado the first choice. However he continued to show poor goal-scoring form while Kane was scoring consistently in the Europa League. Eventually, it was this form that led the manager to replace Soldado with Kane. The use of the word "gamble" suggests that the manager had something to lose by replacing Soldado with Kane. Bearing in mind that Kane had previously been first choice prior to Pochettino's arrival, it seems more appropriate that the gamble (which did not pay off) was to replace Kane with Soldado. Can I suggest that a more accurate but still favourable comment would be, "Following a run of poor goal-scoring form, Pochettino replaced Soldado with Harry Kane who eventually went on to score 31 goals in all competitions" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.7.85.68 (talk) 16:43, 26 April 2016 (UTC)

In the Personal Life section after ref 79, does that need to be changed from "Maurizio" to "Pochettino"? Mike Matthews17 (talk) 12:30, 21 November 2019 (UTC) Mike Matthews17 (talk) 12:30, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

No forget that, I'd misread it. Sorry about that. Mike Matthews17 (talk) 12:31, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

IPA

Having seen today's edits, the Spanish pronunciation: [mauˈɾisjo potʃeˈtino] has been removed but I'm not very good at this sort of thing. Is there someone out there who knows better about this to check if that is correct and should be reinserted into the lead?

I think it should be reinserted. The removal by an IP looks like some sort of vandalism to me. JonStryker (talk) 17:42, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

Death?

There is a death date along with a small paragraph regarding details on this page. He is not currently dead and this seems highly disrespectful. 12.218.10.163 (talk) 14:59, 8 August 2022 (UTC)

Looks like that has been removed and the vandal has been blocked for disruption. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 18:18, 9 August 2022 (UTC)

Languages spoken

As per his interview on Match Of The Day on 20 April 2024 for the Manchester City vs Chelsea match, he says that he speaks French, Spanish, Catalan and English (he has spent quite a number of years in the past in Catalonia). Perhaps this could be added? Dabmonger (talk) 16:46, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
