nah he absolutely was when Mourinho was sacked, Spurs were never going to let me go half way through the season though hence why we hired Ole as caretaker

Just speculation
Will be pretty heavy if he misses this tap-in job for a title.
well yes as you're doing by saying he was never in contention
Poch on the Caf
So they're lost ground on the leaders since he took over?
3x further away from the top since he took over. That’s damning.
Think tonight we give them all a pass given news coming out about why he subbed ADM off. Can’t help but think I wouldn’t be too interested in playing football had that happened to multiple teammates.
What does that mean? They are second 3 points behind Lille
I like Poch and think he’s a good manager.
However the way Ole has performed this season and then Poch not winning the French League with PSG would be too much.
Poch has developped a weird following tbh, never really understood the fascination for him. Decent manager but nothing special

Some fans didn’t like Ole as he wasn’t a famous name so spent hours posting on this board about how he was shite. A lot of people pointed out that there isn’t many who could do a better job so these people cling to Pochettino. He became a magical saviour for them. A manager who would fix all our woes and luckily he’d just been fired so he was made into this mythical legendary manager.
That’s all there is to it really.
It's really sad, this way of thinking you described. If Poch doesn't win the Ligue 1, despite a PSG that's been struggling before he got there, it will be a huge failure indeed. Next game is versus Lyong, this will be a defining moment.
Poch is a good coach, but people have overhyped him to the extent that meant that he'd never be able to achieve that. That being said, he really needs to win the Ligue 1 if he ever wants a job at a proper big club.
They are only 1 point behind the leaders when Tuchel got sacked. Poch still can fix it by winning the next 2 games against Lyon and Lille, but there's no room for dropping more points.
Where is that pochettino fan that always posts in the ole thread ?
Big win tonight 4-2 away to title rivals Lyon, puts them top of the league on GD.
Also knocked fellow title rivals Lille out of the Coupe de France in midweek 3-0.

Three home defeats in a row now.
You love to see it.

Interesting observation...
Given the absolutely ridiculous financial advantage they have over every club in their league combined, if he doesn’t win the league serious questions need to be asked about Poch.
No tactics, just vibes? Argentinian PE teacher?
Even if he wins it just about, isnt it damning that he's not walking over the competition?
Just posted the same in the 'coaching' thread.
Good manager no doubt and they'll probably still win the league (would be laughable not to).
But when people talk in such certainties about us being better under this or that manager there is so much more to it.
It is, but then I remember that this place was Poch-crazy for the best part of 2 years, and those guys are apparently judges of managerial ability than the people the club employs....
The opposition(Monaco and Lille) has been significantly more consistent and better this season, so no it's not damning. PSG also lost a lot of points before his appointment.
It's not to me, PSG has been poor all season, and I think most of this season is a wash anyways with all of the COVID-related issues. I'm judging Pochettino starting next season.
Absolutely.
I think those people just need to admit that they simply don't like our manager for some warped personal reasons rather than anything to do with results. It isn't rational.
How has the messiah managed to get this team second in a one horse race? 7 games left to save his job.
Still better than Solskjaer though?
Still better than Solskjaer though?
Not for a mid-season hire, no.
Myself and many others made this point when he was touted as a potential appointment. He’s never been part of that winning culture, he doesn’t know what it takes to win a league or how to coach the psyche of a team to get over that line and win that trophy.
Football is so much more than pass the ball in triangles and overlap. Elite sports is 90% mental strength, focus and concentration.
But PSG hired Poch to improve on the squads position and hasn't done so. If he is as good as a lot of people on here make him out to be, then PSG should be doing a lot better.
@Amadaeus he is insulting your daddy!
The issues with Tuchel were beyond results and if the competition barely lose points you are not going to walk over them.
They mightn't even qualify for the CL at this rate.
At least he'll always have that Barca result.
But seriously though, this is his first real test. Managing a big club with big egos in a title race.

It would help not to drop points vs teams in the bottom 5 too
They should be winning most of the games they didn't though.
I think they believe it (that we would be far better) it's just they are so blinkered they can't forsee any possible negatives to a change.
I feel like we’ve slipped into a weird alternate dimension where Poch, Klopp and Tuchel don’t make CL. Yet they’re all better than our manager who’s out performed expectation this season so far.They mightn't even qualify for the CL at this rate.
