Pochettino sacked so suddenly as he had to leave players a NOTE to say goodbye

Mauricio Pochettino was forced to leave a note to say goodbye and thank you to his Spurs squad.

He was axed just hours before Jose Mourinho took over — meaning he could not wish the players well in person.

Poch’s message said: “Sorry we cannot come to say goodbye, you are always in our hearts.”

Mourinho is now in charge after penning a staggering £15million-a-year contract until the end of the 2022/23 season.
