The full second half of that post was a disaster 
Voted Blanc on the spot.
But I really am impressed with how Leonardo Jardim has managed his tenure at Monaco so far.
Certain sections of the french media were quick to mock his accent and his inability to speak French in the beginning, but it clearly didn't hamper communication with his players, but I guess it helped that the spotlight was/is on PSG.
However, managing UTD in England would be different, the press will be harder and the spotlight would be on him.

Literally no idea how Allegri only has 5 votes (one of those being me).
Giggsy! Giggsy!
Pochettino and McKenna will fill me with more confidence for the future
That bullet looks to have been permanently dodged, thankfully.Pochettino is the only man for the job. Anyone else would be a disappointment.
I genuinely don't think Pochettino would accept. I have little basis for this opinion, just a hunch, but I get the impression Poch really dislikes Man Utd as a club and would turn down the opportunity to manage us.
Crazy as it sounds, given how it's not a insignificant amount of people on the Giggs bandwagon (or the Neville bandwagon) - I would be eager to have the experiment over and (potentially) done with. That experiment being a former player taking the job. So that it's not dragged up each time a manager is coming to their end with United.
Don't get me wrong, on paper it is fecking nuts to put people like that in charge but given Woodward has proven he can sack a manager when needed, I wouldn't panic should the worst occur (as I do expect).
But on a more sensible path, Poch would be ideal given his rise from Soton and now Spurs.

Yeah it's weird...3 Scudetto, 2 CL finals and he knows how to get the best of Pogba !
Yeah, he should definitely top lists. I wouldn’t mind him or Sarri from Italy. Jardim too.
Me too. I think he can build on a strong defensive foundation and improve our attack.
I think he should stay and keep working with Spurs. On a good run and not massive pressure. Can do something great with them and I think they are moving in the right direction no doubt.
1) Pochettino
2) Marco Silva
3) Jardim

We are on the path to only think short term and fire people left and right. It has already started. It is not the way to sucess in my view at least not long term.
Anyone but that whiny snide we have now.
Am I doing this right?

Jardim has been impressive, I watched a few of Sportings games when he was in charge of them and liked the way he had them playing.
Quite like what ive seen of Marco Silva and Allegri is a good shout

Not really a big fan of his style to be honest. Yes, he's very versatile but we already have a manager who does that. He's not as pragmatic as Jose obviously and will obviously more adventurous in attack, but I don't necessarily see him as a massive upgrade. Also not sure how the transfer side of things would pan out.
Arsene Wenger 
I'd rather wait for Carrick to be done with his career and get him involved in coaching. He was part of our team when we were playing more cosmopolitan football where as GIggs and Neville come and prefer an age where the type of football is slowly fading out of football.
David Moyes?
Gerrard! Gerrard!
It's going to happen (Gerrard, not Giggsy, as thankfully we avoided him).
1. Silva
2. Sarri
3. Allegri
4. Jardim

Pochettino is by far my first choice, I'd love to see what he could do here. I don't think it'll happen but he's definitely the obvious choice for me.
Surprised no-one's at least mentioned Nagelsmann.
Done a great job at Hoffenheim and will probably get the Bayern job at the end of this season if he keeps going in the right direction.
Assuming he does a good job at Bayern he could well be in the frame by the time Mou goes and would only be like 33 or something crazy like that.

He'll soon learn. They've all got a grasp of it. It will be high press, 2 touch and pace. Napoli, like City don't have a big target man. It's on the floor at pace, lot's of chances created. My City mates, said it was like watching a carbon copy of a Guardiola team. 'Sarri ball' is what they are calling it in Serie AHmm
I'm all for Pochettino if we can get him, but maybe it won't be possible.
Do you think Sarri would be a good fit in the PL? Does he speak any English?
Do you think Lukaku would be a misfit under Sarri ? Martial probably would be more of natural fit for Sarri (based on the way they are playing now)
That's a very good point you raise. I think @Invictus mentioned recently that Lukaku would be our Mario Gomez in a way; very good player, but not quite top-class due to his lack of an all-round game. IMO, Rashford but especially Martial would be great fits as a ST under Sarri; Martial would also be a fantastic fit as a LF, as you could really see him performing the Insigne role, in terms of both style and quality (Probably better in quality too). Mind you, Sarri had a good first season with Higuain up front, who really doesn't have that complete an all-round game (Although better than Lukaku).
I'd like Pochettino to be the next manager, but I reckon he'll be off to Real whenever Zidane leaves.
Pochettinos definitely the best bet,he's no Brendan Rodgers,he's the real deal.....He made the transition from Southampton to Tottenham seamlessly,and he"ll do a good job at United....
It wouldn't surprise me if we try something different & start getting the like of Pereira, TFM, Tuenzebe Gomes in to our first team - for that reason & the fact that José tends to leave clubs in a dire situation then it's got to be one of our own.
I just don't think the jump from spurs to United is that big anymore for the manager or the players to make the switch. The only reason they would is down to our historical attributes which I personally believe we will have to look lower down in to our routes than drool at a list of players from every different continent.

What nearly all footballers want is to play attacking attractive football. There are few coaches willing to do this for fear of losing, (not just their job's). Sarri, wouldn't need to change many personnel. Martial, Rashford and Lukaku would all be in the team. Matic, Mkhitaryan and Pogba would be happier, with Herrera a back up.
Lindelof more of a footballer, so I think Jones/Smalking miss the cut. Plenty of cover at full backs. So its change the 'philosophy' (sorry) to Sarri Ball!
We just cannot afford to have another change of manager so soon , we would literally be right back to square 1 .
There are many aspects of mourinho that really get on my nerves but we have to take account that so far this season with injuries to Pogba and Zlatan we have not had the services of our most influential players ( by a country mile ) . I believe Pogba will make a massive difference on his return plus the sight of Zlatan warming up to come off the bench will scare most opposition defenders to death !
We need to baton down the hatches not drop any further behind then the return of these 2 plus a couple of signings will really put us back on track .
We will then have a team capable of beating anyone on the day and I honestly believe because of this we have more chance of winning the champs lge than the prem !!

I haven't heard anything to the effect that he dislikes United.
It's just that I don't see him leaving Spurs in the next couple of years at least for any other club in the world. He's really bought into the whole Spurs "project" - new stadium and all - and seems to be very happy.
He's recently said "Tottenham is in my head 100%. Today, I do not change Tottenham for another position in the world because I am so involved, so focused."
I don't get the Poch love. Guy has not won a sausage. Bottled it during the Leicester winning year. Doesn't have any pressure from the media, so we have no idea how he would respond to severe criticism - which he'd definitely get as United manager.
Are you going to be happy with him downgrading winning trophies that aren't PL or CL?
He's a great coach, but there's nothing to suggest he'd be a great manager for a top club with all the expectations that comes with it. That's a totally different mindset than being at Spurs. No one in the media has a go at them or him, if they don't win a trophy. However at United, that narrative would change.
Let's wait and see if he can take up to the next level.

To be honest , I don't get these trophy thing. Yes, its a bonus but that shouldn't be our base criteria to decide managers. LVG won a lot but what happened to his tenure with us ?
All I care about is vision and mentality to get through a big club. Football is now evolving and I am really excited to see some new faces with some fresh ideas !
Poch, Koeman , Sarri, Silva , Jardim , Favre all would be my okay for me.

no pressure from the media? When he 1st came he said he could've got sacked as he started so poorly at Spurs. All managers have pressure. He has as much as Klopp has since Spurs are now an established top side. He seems like a calm calculated guy. I see no reason as to why he can't handle the pressure. In fact Spurs have been better than us for a good while now. You don't know how someone will do until you give them a go and I would be willing to hand him a 200m budget and the United reigns should Jose go. Put it this way, every season Spurs are in a title challenge and finish above more financially backed sides. Why wouldn't he do that with a £200 million budget every year?
I’d go for Poch in a heartbeat. A very good manager who could become great at UTD. Yes, he’s won nothing in his career but he just oozes class in my view. I like how he operates. He’s an advocate of good football and he has a history of blooding youth talents.
Now I’m not complaining about Mourinho because I think he’s done fantastic so far but the talk of him leaving could be true if we don’t give him what he wants. I can see him leaving next season I really can.
