Poch at spurs very much played that way Kane especially worked really hard back in those days. Granted he hasn't done it at PSG, but then he has struggled at PSG especially last season. Ten Hag;'s Ajax very much playing high pressing. Haller, Ajex current first-choice striker has one of the highest pressing stats among strikers.
His predecessor did worse and then went on to win Chelsea their 2nd CL.
High intensive teams usually get burned out after a while. It happened to Klopp at Dortmund. That's why you need a team rebuild in order for the cycle to begin anew, and Poch wanted to replace some of the players, but wasn't allowed to by Levy. I wouldn't hold that against him. Obviously I want Ten Hag if the plan is to wait for the end of the season. As people here have said - higher risk, but also higher reward.
So just like Poch, does that mean you also don’t want Tuchel at United then? Both Tuchel before came to Chelsea and Poch have similar achievement.
So are Spurs tbf
Badass cape, who are we appointing here, Poch or Zorro?!
To be fair Poch has over achieved with Spurs.
Their clubs might sue us for a lot of money?
Tuchel must be useless then considering he left them third in a one horse race.
Erm... Tuchel won the league 2 years running before that season.
I mean basing it on who gives the best interview probably isn't wise, we'll likely end up with Steve McClaren
And you think Poch won’t win the league if he stays full season at PSG? Look at the ligue 1 table now. Two managers who are capable to win ligue 1 and had reached final CL.
It's false memory syndrome or sixth sense " I see pressing everywhere"
So you want him but subconsciously even you think he isn't good enough to win the biggest trophies or maybe you think we are already out the Cl .
FFS look at their spending, they have a modest budget and are a small club who has a storied history.
Well then . It wouldn't make sense would it numb nuts! Who are these twitter's?
He was sacked because he didn't want to commit to the club, turned down new contract and wanted to leave at the end of the season

And when they start giving out trophies for being in a good position in November, I'll give him some credit. He also seems to be angling for a way out before finishing the job.
And Poch is winning it this year. Ligue 1 isn't really a barometer, with PSG.
He had a title challenge with Spurs and a CL final. I think he's more than good enough to win major trophies. Whether he can compete with Klopp or Guardiola is another matter entirely. And even that one is more or less decided. Guardiola leaves this season or the next and Klopp in 3 years time. Klopp also doesn't have the resources to compete with us. Really all we need is a competent manager here.
Over achieving is not sustainable though.
Not if Zidane replaces him at PSG - they’ll both become the first!
Dont disagree with this. We have a decent squad. I mean playing VDB with Sancho changed so much against Watford. A semi decent manager who can get just 2 or 3 of our players firing should be enough to attain top four this season.
And having literally hundreds of millions of pounds and being seventh is?
All parties can be satisfied with this.
This is the easy way but board wants it the United way.
Not having Ajax as a small club.
Exactly! Let’s do it properly and hear their plans of how they would turn this season around, plans for the future, which young players they would earmark as future stars, how much they would need to spend, which players are out, what they’d do with Pogba, what staff they want, etc rather than just employing someone they wanted a few years ago
Even Liverpool don't press the way they used to do infact there was clear shift to more measured approach in Title winning season .
