Success is incremental. Ole did a great job, got rid of a lot of dead wood and was at least 80% successful in the transfer market. If Poch could have a similar incremental increase I will be happy and I think he would.
Would be a total power move
I'd definitely be happy to have him here, however, will PSG really let their manager go in the middle of the season? I know Zidane is rumoured to take over, but i thought he was reluctant to go to a team in the middle of the season? Or was his reluctance to do with United and the Premier League more specifically.
Also, there's the matter of his strong feeling towards Marseille which could complicate things.

Yeah Ten Hag was my first choice but like what I saw from Pochettino at Spurs (pre 2019) and so intrigued to see what he can do with this squad given time
So you will be Pochettino out from day 1Ver underwhelming if true
They've done British, Irish, European - it's time for South America.
100% mate. He's as close to a safe bet that we can get. I'm not on the TH hype train. Yes, Ajax play some great stuff, but there is no guarantee that we'd see the same with our players in a very different league. Poch is a great choice.
Irish?
Random reminder that Poch once had ballin' hair
He still has! Really handsome fella.

Hey I'm having fun. Just trying to decide if "not knowing which out of two numbers is the highest" or "not understanding what money spent per year means" is funnier.
Think you may as well just sit in the Ten Hag thread while Pochettino is here
Frank O Farrell
The club existed before Fergie.
So you will be fed up when he takes charge for the first time then
Please not Poch. I don't care how much he wants the job - that's not a good enough criteria at the moment.
Really hope we don't go this way.

Wrong end of the stick. Thought you meant post fergie managers. I’ll go back to sleep…hahaThe club existed before Fergie.
Was that the 3-2 RVP hattrick game
ETH is my first choice too, but you said it yourself - we don't have the structure of a well run football club, so he wouldn't be a guaranteed success here, especially if he doesn't have the meticulous footballing ecosystem he currently enjoys at Ajax. There's also the fact he seemingly doesn't want us to join mid season, meaning we're stuck with the grim reality of possibly being coached by Carrick until the end of the season. Poch wants to join now. Potter is far too green, you mentioned Moyes yet don't seem alarmed with the prospect of hiring yet another manager who's never been tested at a big club.
As for who can realistically come in and challenge Klopp/Tuchel/Pep - honestly I don't think anyone can. Conte might have fluked us a PL title, Zidane too, but both those ships have either sailed or were DOA. If we could bring in a manager immediately who knows the PL, can get us playing decent attacking football, and has us at least in the conversation every season then it would be a pretty damn good start. Klopp and Pep aren't going to be at their respective clubs forever.
No. 2-1 victory for United. United were 2-1 up at halftime and spent the entire second half defending a very impressive Southampton display. Poch had been in the job a matter of weeks.
Nah Adkins was in charge.
The wheels are firmly in motion here. How quickly he comes in will come down to how quickly Qatar can appoint Zidane I'd imagine.
But do you wish him a speedy revocery?
Nope, that was not under Poch I think but we were 2nd best in that game as well. But had RvP
Damn, second on the ball as always i am
Yeah same tbh, I wouldnt complain if he comes in the choices are very slim! I thought we should have got him in when Ole was interim. But since then Ten Hag has taken my fancy, Ajax play some really good football and have won trophies.
I think Poch will do well if he comes in, we have a good squad. One thing about him is he will definitely improve our FB area he will whip AWB, Dalot etc into shape in no time. Im curious to see what he will do with our midfield though..
If that is true then I have no doubt that this will happen sooner rather than later.
Yeah tell Pochettino to put Verratti or Paredes in the hand luggage
Anyone know when his press conference is?
Is there any chance he could take over before the Chelsea or Arsenal game? It goes back on what the club said re an interim but I don’t see the point in wasting time if he’s the man they want.
Number of times we won after a comeback in first part of that 2012/13 season is incredible. 3-2 Saints, 4-3 vs Reading, 4-3 Newcastle, 3-2 v Aston Villa etc. Some games we were bad for 70 minutes and then would win it in last 20. Shows you that team was already not good enough and we won PL because of Fergie, RvP, Carrick mostly. I'm still mad at Fergie for letting the team get so much weaker from 2009 to 2013.Nope, that was not under Poch I think but we were 2nd best in that game as well. But had RvP
That 2-1 win vs Poch' Saints, don't remember it clearly but we did struggle against them in that game, as well as next season (though we struggled against most teams next season
)Vertonghen was already at Spurs so fair enough. Alderweireld hadn't worked out at Atletico, and so had ended up at Soton. He got to his best levels under Poch. My memory of Eriksen is that he was highly rated but hadn't fully stepped up at Ajax, I might be wrong, was he outstanding at the time Spurs bought him? In any case, he hadn't pulled up trees at Spurs before Poch got there. Sherwood tries to take credit for Kane but it was under Poch that he started scoring.
In this picture you see a glaring problem with Pochettino: he's not bald! Nor is he wearing a baseball cap! Pep, Zidane, Ten Hag, Klopp and Tuchel are all either bald or wearing a baseball cap. There is a clear pattern here. And that pattern is male pattern baldness.
Moyes, Van Gaal, Mourinho and Ole have all had a full head of hair. Pochettino is doomed from the get go!
If he comes in now and misses top 4, should we sack him in the summer?
Like it might be unfair because Oles the one responsible for the shithole we're in this season. But life isn't fair.

Eriksen was brilliant for Ajax, maybe he should have left Ajax a bit sooner but he was a genuine star.
You are right on Kane. Alderweireld didnt really suit that Atletico team but Poch identified him very well. A very fine defender at his best.
Its so obvious... Just shows how clueless the board is
Mate, when you have no point to any of your posts, you really start to lose any credence or credibility.
If you think £400m is not a lot of money to spend at a club like Spurs considering where they were when Poch took over than fine, but considering the contexts that I have pointed out then it highlights, to me at least, how incorrect you are.
You may think differently but your point has been lost among snide comments which you appear to have used to disguise the fact that you don't really have anything of merit or interest to say, which again is fine, but I am not interested in people who cannot elequently explain their reasoning.
Each to their own, but leave me out of your petulance please, I'm above that thanks.
No but I want proper change at the club and that only happens with someone like Ten Hag imo.
