Poch could be able to name his price come christmas, which would be a good thing - he may insist on working with a proper DOF, and not some jumped up banker on a power trip.
A serious look at Mauricio Pochettino
- Thread starter NotBrendanRodgers honest
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
I'm fuming. Absolutely fecking fuming,
Is Luke Gardener reliable? I see he writes for The Express.
But even if they had Poch in mind Sancho is a Poch player, there was no reason not to sign him.
Ole has a lot of quality in the squad, enough to do better than he has. That is an irrefutable fact, I think Poch can maximize much more with the players.
Yup. May as well have briefed out the Director of Football thing again.
No Martial either.
Same Question
feck THIS CLUB I AM DONE.
ED WOODWARD YOUR ARE A feckING COWARD
Does he? He was well timed with Walker and Rose, he was also at the helm when Rose fell to shit and preferred Davies over him. He signed Trippier then sold him when Toby and Tripper fell out. There is one player who was the most important to Poch and Spurs and was the main reason to why his team fell apart.
We are seemingly finding young gems now though (well it remains to be seen how the two new 18 year old wingers turn out).
I will forgive Ed this shambolic transfer window if he signs Poch in incoming days.
Absolutely this. I'm raging.
Exactly. He would be a failure with AWB. With Williams or Laird , yes probably.
Also how many transfers he has recommended? Foyth being Argentinian, was it his recommendation?
Not talking about 18 year old ones. The ones about to break through. The current team would suit him except the right full back and central defender.
Yes. Poch is a good manager, i loved him but he was infuriating at times. He had major favourites and continued to play players like Dele when they should have been dropped. He is cryptic as feck also.
Look I for one do not vouch for Ed or the glazers. However I do not want to hear anyone say ole has not been backed.
You don’t concede 11 goals against Crystal Palace, Brighton ( 5 posts ) and park the bus mourinho with a defence worth nearly 200 million. And 2 out of the 4 signing are ole’s... I don’t care if they had no pre season. That starting 11 are better then this. A good manager ( not past their best managers like LVG or Jose ) can get a lot more out of this squad!
The squad is starting to lose respect for the PE teacher. Do you really think any of them sit there and think ole will bring trophies to this club ?
No tactics just vibes
Bruno clearly papered over the cracks.
pull the plug and get him gone while there is still a chance to save this season.

It is not working that way. Believe me, i know. Backed Jose first two seasons, defended him (not in deluded way) and was ripped apart from most of posters. Now that same posters who wanted Jose out tell me that i am not a fan because i want Ole out (and Poch in). So confused i am.
Ok, question, what Poch's style of play to you, what wil h improve if he comes and how will he lead you to success?It is not working that way. Believe me, i know.

Woody and Ashton shitmongering again . Blame your failure's on Ole. Oleout fans don't worry it will be Pochout as soon as top4 is confirmed.
Cavani is coming..
All i know is if you don't support my preferred candidate you aren't a real fan and need to leaveIt is not working that way. Believe me, i know.

He has been out 7 months, he's also a knackered 33 year old, he's not coming near the pitch until November at the earliest.
We have the worst coach in PL who is not even PL material. I would even take Moyes back now instead of Solskjaer. But Poch is no1 wish. I like his man management and style of play. We have much better team that he had in Spurs. And with that team we play like small team. Sit deep and wait for counters. Without any progress in two years. I am sick of it. With Poch i will again enjoy in United games.
This is seriously small-time and shameless from Woody to do this on deadline day when it's his failure that created this mess. They made out all along that top 4 = Sancho, Ole achieved his end of the bargain getting 3rd and they've shafted him big time instead. That's 3 managers on the bounce they've done this to now.
Why would Poch even consider coming here to work under these despicable owners? Anyone stopped to think about that?

Pretty much that
With Ed he will at least know that he is safe next two years no matter what
Did you watch us in the first season under Poch? You have to remember he inherited a back 5, Lloris included, he also inherited Kane. Trust me I loved Poch and what he stood for but he is possibly the most stubborn coach I have seen, I think he would do well but it will not be a quick fix.
I'd take Poch and jump on the Ole out train if it meant we had a DOF to work with him.
If the plan is more of Woodward n Judge and just change the manager then I don't see anything changing much.

November if after 2 PL games..
A BIG fat contract and huge paid out after being kick out by Ed will do actually for any coach available in the market waiting for offer. Seriously.
Edit
the best thing is now everyone and his dog knows if the coach fail it is Ed's fault so it won't affect the coach's reputation.

Several threads all quoting a deleted tweet??
Poch doesn't want a DoF. When Mitchell left, he got a new contract making him the manager. IMO Poch is waiting for PSG.
Just looking at the schedule is scary, 7 matches in 3 weeks, and we sign a 33 year old whos been out 7 months as our main backup. Only us would do that. Madness.November if after 2 PL games..
Mourinho did get a decent payout for his troubles... but seriously i can't see why any up and coming manager would take us on. It's an impossible task under these owners.
I remember his first season and your defence was one of the worst in the league the season before he joined. They were young and had potential, but he made them into what they were.
He was dug out by Kane! And he made the team a possession team. What do you mean they were young, most were mature players. Poch's game plan was press and keep position, first season was sideways and backwards. We had probbaly the best first team for 2 seasons in the league and every time we got to win something we imploded.
See the below:
To correctly slightly, I'm pretty sure Poch wanted rid of Baldini and then Mitchell came in, and either Poch wasn't keen or they fell out, because Poch moaned about a DoF again and they put Mitchell on gardening leave until he left.
Seriously, if there's any two single things that a BS about poch it's that he has any sort of agent or 'representatives', and that he would work with a DoF. I'm pretty sure he'd fall out with United even on the topic of keeping Carrick or McKenna (or, basically, anyone that isn't Jesus, D'Agostino or Jiminez) in the first team staff.
Oh I agree, you take Poch u take all his backroom staff. And yes Poch is his own man, and I respected him for it.
