This is a done dealio.
Welcome Poch!
Welcome Poch!
Think people are underrating the probability that ten haag will fail after a huge jump up in standard. He has the best team and the best setup by a mile in an easy league. It would be great and interesting and I would be behind it. But we know poch can have success, especially if he isn't forced to play static players and can play the hard workers he will want to play
Dont jinx it
I am praying for this to happen now. Whether Poch is 'the one' is arguable and only time will tell, he will without a doubt be an upgrade on what we've had. ALso, the benefit of there being a possibility of not having to completely write off this season is very appealing. Come on Poch, you know you want to.
Take it easy. PSG are not easy to deal with and they don’t like to lose face.
I can picture a bunch of French football executives all giddy sat around a table staring at a phone.
"It's coming any minute!"
He will be much more stable at United and almost certainly been guaranteed more money then at PSG. Not saying it's his primary motive, but it certainly helps with the decision.

Ah yes, 'Preparing' is back
At least they've skipped 'considering'
Tuchel fell at the final hurdle with PSG in the CL.. I'll admit it alarmed me slightly in the Spurs Amazon doc when Jose went into the Spurs dressing room after Poch's sacking, saying they were a group of nice lads, but didn't have a winning mentality - a reflection of their former manager perhaps?
Yes preparing. Great we will prepare like we did with Sancho.
This will be a damp squib. Back to square one, give it 3 years, 4 tops. He'll stick around longer than most because he'll probably get us in the top-4.
I actually see the "hack" side @JPRouve. He said Zidane is more about the relationship with the dressing room than Poch might be. This insinuates Poch is out of touch in such a remit but I think Poch if anything is known to put a lot of effort into knowing his players and getting them on board.
Is Zidane even interested in PSG? I thought he played for Marseille and they hate PSG or something?
... or just Jose being drawing a line under his appointment by saying 'I'm better'?
Have Moyesies iPad on the charger. Should be good to go after the updates are downloaded!
He's from Marseille but he never played for them, money and prestige talk though
Ten Hag your top choice? I do feel like Ten Hag is the one we will look back on and lament not going for at this point. Very worried about what he could do at City.
I hope your right but I can't see past them making a drawn out drama of it
Jose sure changed that
Yep - big mistake. That said, if he doesn't want to come, there's not much else out there.
True, they certainly played more like winners under poch in hindsight
I'm nigh on convinced that he is the one, but it would take a willingness to overthrow the structure - bring in VDS, Overmars if we were serious about being the best team in the world again.
It's just not an appointment that would happen under the Glazers.
I think so too. He'll play youth, play good football, achieve top 4 and won't feck around with the board. No wonder he's first choice for the feckers.
I heard that interview on talksport. Is this Julien guy any reliable?
To be honest I think PSG would see Poch to Zidane as an upgrade anyway, so while they may want to play this out in such a way that they're guaranteed max compensation, I think they'll be happy to let him go. Zidane is a much better fit for them.
Win win for all parties. We get Poch, and PSG get Zidane. Who let's face it will be able to manage that PSG squad as he managed to do it successfully with Madrid for a few years. Also potential bonus to PSG that Zidane as boss may convince Mbappe to stay for another year or two.
Yep - that's the truth sadly. Imagine if Joel wakes up and realises Woodward has been shambolic. Clears out the club from him down. Hires the entirety of Ajax's structure. We'd be winners in 5 years.
Very frustrating to see another pass us by. I'm going to have to hope that he fails now but have the feeling he's best placed to challenge Pep, Klopp, Tuchel - could be truly elite.
Couldn't agree more.
Ten Haag would be a bold/brave option, more risky, requires more to change at the club than just manager position (would work best with VDS and Overmars) and would likely involve lot of change in the play style, players etc.
Poch is safer, more well known, you know what you will get from him. Don't need to change too much around the club.
Guess which option Glazers will pick. Fairly obvious.
Yes for Ajax that is bad.
But it seems that he could do nothing but winning the Champions League for the love for him to be justified, as you clearly don't watch every Ajax game and there are posters here actually that do.
Which is odd considering that a few tweets from reliable French sources yesterday claimed that the PSG players really like Pochettino and get on with him.

Some of the posters moaning about Poch and demanding Ten Hag didn't even know who the latter was until a few weeks ago.
God bless the Caf.
God bless the Caf.
I'm not kidding, he almost literally repeated a conversation that Hermel and Acherchour had yesterday on RMC and they were speculating. It would quite something if it was a coincidence.
I'm sure alex crook knows feck all. He says a lot of stupid things on talksport if I remember correctly.
