Tuchel = "fall out" problems. Enrique = style of play not as interesting, IMO. The pros for De Zebri, rumours city want him to replace Pep, play very dominant style of play, minimal spendings, has PL experience and a very good coach.
De Zerbi has done nothing other than play decent football at brighton, yet get dominated in quite a few games.

Enrique and Tuchel should be ahead of De Zerbi lets be honest
Yep... Enrique is a treble winner, Tuchel is only the fourth manager to lead three different clubs into (at least) a CL semifinal. Those things are merits de Zerbi just can't compete with.

Tuchel already been contacted (apparently)
Not a huge fan of his play style but on a 1-year deal before we can get our house in order and try to tempt someone like an Alonso might be good.

Get him in before the final, hopefully Pep will bottle the final from the CL final PTSD.

Count Orlok wouldn’t be the worst appointment we could make. At least he has a pedigree compared to some of the other candidates mooted by the media. Just got to hope him and the new hierarchy see eye to eye on everything, because like a certain Portuguese man, he’s almost always ends up falling out with the ownership seemingly.

Tuchel is horribly under rated and slandered by so many fans it’s ridiculous he doesn’t suffer fools and is leagues ahead of anything Ten Hag could muster.

Worked with big name players, has a highly adaptable system. Pretty much perfect for our current squad and great to transition over from the chaos we have at the moment.

Winning a Cl vs Pep’s City, Knocking Arsenal out with a terrible Bayern side are no mean feats.

He didn’t do too well at PSG but who does?

I think it would be a smart move, if contact has been made then it may give credence to what my source said , agreement between ETH and INEOS he’s off come the summer.

I’d take Tuchel on a short term deal while we attempt to fix our squad. At least he’s more tactically sound and flexible than ETH.

Tuchel won the league and got them to their ONLY (so far) CL final. No one has done better.

Enrique maybe. Tuchel fits in with the Mourinho/Conte type. Causes arguments if he doesn’t get his own way. Last thing we need is another manager to cause unrest in the dressing room… the new owners will want a manager that can implement a style they choose. De Zerbi fits that profile. He’d happily jump to a bigger team and will work well with the people above him. He’s use to not spending much anyway and he can improve the squad he has.

He can’t even spell his own first name. So probably not

As for Tuchel, I think he’s underrated on here. Although I do understand people’s concerns.
Wouldn't mind Tuchel, but he wouldn't be among my top 3 choices if ETH was sacked. Agree that he's underrated on here.

So far the first and only manager to reach a CL final with them. So at least in Europe he did the best job of any PSG manager (although obviously that could still change this season).

Enriques not done to badly. And that’s without the luxury of Neymar. Plays better football and can make star players perform as well as youth players.

I didn’t know that for some reason I had it in my head he wasn’t manager that took them to the final and lost the league to Lille or whoever it was that one time.
Either way I think he’s a brilliant choice , he’ll be quite candid and honest about the likes of Rashford and Bruno.

I could see Liverpool moving for him

We don't even know what style the owners want so how can you say De Zerbi fits the bill?

Massimiliano Allegri, Thiago Motta or Don Carlo?

If we're gonna do it we should at least be ambitious. Carlo took Everton for five minutes so we can't count that out, I think Motta has been in the conversation fairly consistently, and I've always quite liked Allegri.

Any thoughts on going maverick with McKenna?

Still think someone like Carlo Ancelotti makes the most sense. There's zero point in bringing in another mediocre manager like Tuchel, Potter or Southgate for the sake of hiring one. Carlo for a year or two would allow is to play the waiting game and he's still a class act.

At this point I'd even take Sam Allardyce or Toni Pullis. I just want this guy gone. Good Lord

How do you lure Ancelotti away from Real? That's just not happening.

I’m assuming the owners want to play a modern style of football… and I mean fits the profile as in coming in and working well with people above him and he won’t cause issues like other managers will if they don’t get what they want.

What we need to be asking is how on earth he managed Everton? If he’s gone there he’ll certainly come here..: but you’re probably right… gonna be impossible to get him from real. Unless he wanted a new challenge. If he wins the CL this year then he may feel like he’s won it all with them.

Nobody is likely to join United on a short term deal. Why would they?
To wait and see how INEOS manages the club would be a reason. Basically saying "I give you one or two years to prove that you can provide the foundation to win big stuff, or else I'll just walk"

Well... he was sacked by Bayern because the team accused him of not training hard enough and not doing serious enough work, so his reputation took a bit of a hit, he then was hired by Neapel where he did a decent job but won nothing, Everton was basically the same but in a better league, so a step forward/back to the top for him. Now he is at the top again, so if he doesn't fall from grace (which doesn't look likely) in a spectacular way again, there is no way he would leave Real.
