Tottenham Hotspur are in a positive place at the moment with Mauricio Pochettino at the helm.

Over the last few seasons, the North London outfit have transformed themselves into genuine challengers, but their decade wait for a trophy continues.

After being ousted by Manchester United in the FA Cup semi-finals, the club's objective over the next few games is to finish inside the top four of the Premier League.

The team are a far cry from the setup coached by Andre Villas-Boas, who spent just one season in charge of Spurs between 2012 and 2013.

The Portuguese coach has been in the news this week at the centre of reports from Goal.com that he has been sounded out for the manager's job at Borussia Dortmund.

The eight-time title winners currently have Peter Stoger at the helm in Germany, but a new face is expected to be recruited this summer.

Villas-Boas took a break from football in November following a stint at Shanghai SIPG to embark on a role in motorsport.

Judging by Tottenham fans' reaction to Dortmund's alleged interest, Villas-Boas is not remembered fondly.
