Chelsea Manager Pochettino Praises Former Boss Levy Ahead of Tottenham Clash

Pochettino maintains 'very good' relationship with Levy despite his sacking from Spurs three years ago, praises Levy's 'amazing' job on the eve of Chelsea's visit.

Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino has praised his former boss and Spurs chairman Daniel Levy, maintaining that he holds no resentment over his sacking by Tottenham and highlighting Levy's 'amazing' job in transforming the club.
After previously managing Tottenham for five and a half years, during which the club regularly challenged for the Premier League title and competed in the Champions League, Pochettino was sacked when the club was 14th in the league.
Despite the sacking, Pochettino insists it's not a criticism of the club and believes his relationship with Levy remains positive, with the Spurs chairman even sending a congratulatory text when Pochettino signed with Chelsea.
During his time with Tottenham, Pochettino guided the team to a Champions League final and helped establish the club as regular top-four Premier League contenders; he has now extended these managerial skills to Chelsea.
Despite the criticism Levy has received over the years, especially for the lack of silverware since 2008, Pochettino emphasizes the incredible progress of the club under Levy's management, comparing the Tottenham of 20 years ago to its present state.
