Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino has completely shut down any speculation linking him to the out of sorts Manchester United after declaring he wants to stay at Tottenham “for five more years”.
United’s poor run of form has led to mass rumors that manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer could potentially be the first manager to get the sack.
In recent months, Pochettino has been bookmarkers favorite to take over from Solskjaer should either of the two managers lose their jobs.
Spurs themselves have been going through an unimpressive run of form which was summed up by the 7 – 2 humiliation by Bayern Munich in the Champions League.

Pochettino appeared in a press conference to speak on his team as they prepare to face Brighton on Saturday, October 4.
The Argentine insisted he was fully committed to the London club, despite their recent struggles.
"It is a moment to stay all together," he said. "I accept the opinions. When you don't win, not only at Tottenham, this happens at every club in the world,” he said.
He went on to strongly suggest he would be with Tottenham five years from now.
“In the end, the only thing that happened is that we lost a game. I have no doubt we are going to stay together and find a way to be successful again, no doubt. In five-and-a-half years, every single press conference we have talked about my future,” he went on.
Spurs are currently going through a serious transition as a number of their senior players are yet to sign new contracts.
