Mauricio Pochettino: Tottenham fans have a mixed reaction to manager’s argument with Mike Dean following surprise loss to Burnley

Mauricio Pochettino: Tottenham fans have a mixed reaction to manager’s argument with Mike Dean following surprise loss to Burnley
It was another nearly moment for Tottenham as they failed to close the gap on Manchester City and Liverpool to two points at the top of the Premier League after a 2-1 loss at Burnley.Ashley Barnes’ late strike sealed Spurs’ fate after Harry Kane levelled the scores following Chris Wood’s dubious opener.5

Burnley’s first goal was controversial because replays show that it came from a corner which should not have been given as the ball last touched Jeff Hendrick in a challenge with Spurs defender Jan Vertonghen.The aftermath of the game then saw a furious Mauricio Pochettino and his Spurs coaching staff confront referee Mike Dean and the officials and at one point the Argentine has to be pulled away from them by Burnley’s Phil Bardsley.It’s likely to lead to a charge from the Football Association for the manager as it has been revealed Dean will include the incident in his report of the game.5

Pochettino unsurprisingly kept quiet on what was said between him and the officials when interviewed by Sky Sports straight after the game.However, the Spurs boss admitted he was in the wrong for the way he reacted when speaking to the written press minutes later.And a few Spurs fans took to Twitter to have their say on Pochettino berating Dean after the game, with some believing he was right to point out the referee’s ‘incompetent’ performance.Others claimed Spurs lost the game because the players didn’t play very well so Pochettino’s anger was misplaced. Below you can see some of the best tweets.

What a man Pochettino. Nothing got him angry and what happens on the pitch happens on the pitch. How many would go into an interview still ranting? Class #COYS #THFC— Jas Dhoofer (@JasDhoofer) February 23, 2019

Pochettino's outburst at the end with Mike Dean seems absurd to me. He's normally a cool character, even in defeat. It can't just be the decision about the corner that has got to him. #COYS #THFC— Nick Davison (@nick_davison10) February 23, 2019

The passion of Pochettino there, having his words with Mike Dean. Thats my manager. We move onward… #COYS— Dylan (@dylan_wanders) February 23, 2019

Dont blame Pochettino a bit for having a go at Mike Dean. Gave the corner incorrectly and allowed Bardsley to avoid a deserved red. #THFC #COYS— RuckerHaringey (@RuckerHaringey) February 23, 2019

The post-match confrontation of Poch and Dean got heated. Clearly something was said by Mike Dean as Pochettino does not lose his cool like that. #THFC— Harry Hotspur (@HarryHotspurWHL) February 23, 2019

Never seen Pochettino so incensed with a referee. Looks like he was walking away and Mike Dean/one of the assistants said something which set him off. #THFC #BURTOT— Guy Giles (@gwfgiles) February 23, 2019

Ref mistakes will always happen and this cannot be changed. It should be one of Pochettino's priorities to sort out the defence and not have them concede goal after goal from corners instead of argue over a corner that shouldn't have stood. #THFC— Kalina Kitova (@kzkitova) February 23, 2019

Love Pochettino but he had to take responsibility today. Hard to think of a worse game to play Foyth than Burnley away with the sun in his eyes. Then we lost our shape after all the subs and actually looked worse. Son was awful throughout too. #THFC #spurs— Manoamano (@Manoama89203646) February 23, 2019

YES Poch. Show that passion!#COYS— Melvin (@MTKigz) February 23, 2019

Frustrating game but seeing Poch get angry is something he needed to do #COYS— Tom (@thakidochoa) February 23, 2019
