Mauricio Pochettino admits his sacking by Tottenham hurt him.
The 48-year-old, who admitted he is ready to return to management, let on that he was upset following his exit from Tottenham but understood that a change may have been needed.
"After one year now, I'm not going to say I was not disappointed," Pochettino told Sky Sports Monday Night Football.
"I was a bit upset and was not happy when we left a club that you feel after five-and-a-half years the relationship is massive with the staff, players and of course the fans. I'm not going to lie.
"But I understand football very well and the stadium maybe in our period, in the chapter, that maybe the club needed to change. But I'm not going to complain at the decision of the club."
