He also highlighted the maturation of his coaching staff, noting that they are now less emotionally affected, whether the team is winning or facing challenges.
Their focus is on calmly identifying the best solutions for the future.
In addition to discussing his coaching journey, Pochettino shared his belief in “energía universal,” the idea that everything is connected and that events are not mere coincidences but rather the result of underlying causes.
He mentioned how this concept might explain why certain players, like Harry Kane, consistently perform well in derbies.
To Pochettino, this universal energy is a real and influential force.
