Neil Warnock leaves Laura Woods and Ally McCoist in stitches with brutal assessment of Spurs’ battering at Newcastle


NEIL WARNOCK didn’t hold back on his savage assessment of Tottenham’s thrashing at Newcastle.

So much so, that Warnock left talkSPORT duo Laura Woods and Ally McCoist in stitches with his scathing yet hilarious views.

The Huddersfield manager insisted he would rather hold on to his current back-four than have Pedro Porro, Cristian Romero, Eric Dier or Ivan Perisic at John Smith’s Stadium.

Warnock told talkSPORT: “You couldn’t predict Tottenham losing five after 20 minutes.

“And I’m thinking, ‘Would you have any of them back four instead of my back four?’ I’d rather have Huddersfield.”

Tottenham found themselves down by five goals after just 21 minutes at St James’ Park.

Woods asked the experienced manager how he would have handled the situation after the Toon’s third goal.

Warnock bluntly responded: “I would have gone home.”

Woods and McCoist were left laughing their socks off but the 74-year-old tactician wasn’t done with his brutal assessment just yet.

The ex-Crystal Palace manager appeared to agree with Tottenham’s decision of sacking interim manager Cristian Stellini and replacing him with the also inexperienced Ryan Mason.

The Huddersfield boss also advised Mauricio Pochettino not to return to North London and go to Chelsea instead.

Warnock added: “I’m thinking, I’ve never seen anything like it. I couldn’t believe it. No disrespect, but you can’t put somebody like that [Stellini] in charge.

“I remember when [Antonio] Conte left and I said, ‘You mark my words – you have a listen at what he said – that dressing room’s gotta be decimated. Gotta be gutted’.

“I wouldn’t envy anybody coming in there now. If Pochettino’s got any sense he’d go to Chelsea [because] all they need is a centre-forward.”
