I asked you why he would be the first. And Pochettino selections and the way PSG plays hasn't changed from last season without Messi. It makes no sense, it's not as if everything was going well until Messi arrived.
Managers of a certain ilk who want to implement graft and pressing into a team can only do so if the entire dressing room buys in. Messi's introduction to the dressing room causes an element of player power, such that if that player doesn't really believe in these methods it can be contagious across the rest of the squad. And I think the balance of ego's in PSG is already too one sided - it's just gotten worse now.
I don't think Poch is free of blame - yes he should be more attacking, yes he should do better in the French Cup. But this role at PSG is always going to be a poisoned chalice for them - Leonardo is a nutty DoF and the collection at egos at PSG is going to cause issues for most managers who want their players to work hard. Poch takes blame in either not convincing them to buy into his methods enough, or not adapting in his style with better results in cups. I agree with this.
What I do not agree with, is PSG's stint to be used to write off a 49 year old manager who chronically overperformed in all the jobs he was given up to that point. Especially when PSG is a circus in itself.
Frankly posts that say he's a fraud or he should be as far away from the United post as possible are way too extreme and borderline laughable. Ten Hag is doing a madness right now but there was a time where Poch at Spurs was extremely good too.
