Monaco 2016-2017 was 2 tiers above this Lille side that just won the league, semifinalists at CL(eliminating Dortmund and City) and more than 100 goals scored that season...with players like Falcao, Mbappé,Bernardo Silva, Mendy, Lemar,Joao Moutinho,etc
That's him alright a total wum. BTW the French league champions Lille didn't even make it past the round of 32 stage in the Europa league this season, then again if they had progressed further they may not have won the French league totally against the odds.
But Lille did pick up 2.26 points per game after Poch took over and PSG only play them twice a season so no idea what your point is? That Lille aren’t that good? Well in the French league they absolutely were and picked up points at a ”league winners” rate since Poch’s arrival.
With a extended Europa league run it may have caused them to drop more points so my point is while they showed they weren't good enough to reach the latter stages of that competition an early exit proved to be blessing in disguise.
Would be a terrible move for both parties imo, at the current state.
Kind of. This PSG team doesn't have depth and whenever they have to start someone else than the starters, this level have dramatically dropped the first weeks of the season is an example of that. But PSG also lost points against the other top CL qualification contenders, they lost twice to Monaco, once to Lyon and Lille.

at all the people that quoted me. Pochettino failed to win because Tuchel was underperforming and his philosophy hasn’t been fully implemented. Pochettino will win the league next season.
he was one point off the others when he took over, of course you are going to get quoted when you stick your long neck out as far as you have over Poch. If he wins the league next season he will only have done what is expected of him.Him going back to Spurs now (assuming he's not getting sacked at PSG) shows to he lacks ambition to me.
I think there was a very good reason PSG only gave him short contract TBH, ZZ has stood down, I think were gonna see a few very fast managerial changes.
Unless Pochettino has an inkling that PSG wants to get rid of him I don't understand this.
Good point and I'd agree if I didn't see Tuchel fail there and do quite well at Chelsea soon after.
He is pretty well connected to us to be fair to him, if he's sticking his neck out that far its true IMO.
Sure he has 2 now!Wow, that is a bit shocking to read isn't it? your first chance of winning trophies and you run away back to Spurs
It seems like he's fallen out with the sporting director there, I guess the grass isn't always greener. Strange though, maybe he wants to walk before he's pushed.Sure he has 2 now!
.Zidane to PSG would probably convince Mbappe to sign a new deal as well.
Don't see why. He wants to win things. Poch was a bottler in his first spell at Spurs and only solidified that reputation at PSG. Plus the rest of their team is crap outside Son. Perhaps Spurs' plan is to rebuild with the Kane money and build another young team that could go somewhere in a few years like Poch did previously.
He’d a poor start at Spurs too so he seems the type to take time to get going. If he decides to go back to Spurs though he’s basically writing off any hope he had at one of the top jobs.
If Poch goes to Spurs, Kane will stay IMO.
I doubt that. The problem is Levy are his penny pinching ways, bringing Poch back won’t move the needle for Kane. Poch is likely Levy’s last ditch effort in convincing Kane to stay but he will leave anyways, and Poch will be given the reigns to rebuild the squad.
Originally I thought the same, but now think he’ll still want to go. Also think Levy/Poch would need the Kane sale money to help rebuild the squad.
Bingo.
