Would be a total power moveIs he literally just going to stay in Manchester and not get the flight back to Paris haha
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 timeNo point in trying to convince those that already made up their minds on Poch. Context doesn't matter to them, never mind the fact that Tuchel underperformed at PSG, and then joined Chelsea and won the feckin UCL. They will keep on babbling about no trophies, can't even win Ligue 1 etc.
So you will be Pochettino out from day 1Ver underwhelming if true
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.Zidane has refused the job, so we have to move on from that. Ten Hag is a big risk having only managed in Holland. Poch is an excellent choice.
Irish?They've done British, Irish, European - it's time for South America.
He still has! Really handsome fella.
Random reminder that Poch once had ballin' hair
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.Give it a rest mate and have a lie down.
Think you may as well just sit in the Ten Hag thread while Pochettino is hereHad a lower winning percentage at spurs than AVB
Frank O FarrellIrish?
The club existed before Fergie.Irish?
So you will be fed up when he takes charge for the first time thenLooks like it’s going to happen. Not that enthused.

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 gameMy first introduction to Poch was when his Southampton side played us off the park in SAF last season. Mightily impressed that day with the work ethic, shape and technical ability on show.
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.We don‘t have a good structure and won‘t have it anytime soon. Most agreed that the squad is ready to challenge now. And if we can‘t get a proven winner than I would rather give it to ETH or even Potter than Poch.
I could also ask the question the other way: If you find the thought of top 4-6 ridiculous, so what do you think who will he beat to get 1st or 2nd? Pep, Klopp or Tuchel?
Anyway I am not the anti-Amadeus who will write essays against Poch (if he comes). However I have not wanted him since he left Spurs and nothing he has done since has changed my mind.
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.Was that the 3-2 RVP hattrick game
Nah Adkins was in charge.Was that the 3-2 RVP hattrick game
But do you wish him a speedy revocery?I’ll be honest, I’m not his biggest fan….
Nope, that was not under Poch I think but we were 2nd best in that game as well. But had RvPWas that the 3-2 RVP hattrick game
Damn, second on the ball as always i amBut you wish him a speedy recovery, right?
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.First choice is Ten Hag but I have always been a fan of Pochettino so I can't complain. I have never subscribed to the "no big trophies" talk. It fails to look at context.
I think he will do well. More importantly, getting him now gives us a chance of rescuing this season.
Yours?
If that is true then I have no doubt that this will happen sooner rather than later.Tweet

Yeah tell Pochettino to put Verratti or Paredes in the hand luggagePSG are a club that like to keep scores, so it wouldn't surprise me one bit if they let Poch leave and then aggressively pursue Pogba in January just to get one over us. I don't mind one bit if that show pony fecks off to France but something to keep in mind.
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
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.Alderweireld and Verthongen were very highly rated at Ajax and so was Eriksen. All some of the biggest stars in the last 15 years.
Alli was a hot prospect that had just schooled United and could go anywhere he wanted. Didnt Kane emerge already under Sherwood? Poch did a great job mind to have them performing at their highest, but these were very very talented players even before he came.
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.Tweet

Eriksen was brilliant for Ajax, maybe he should have left Ajax a bit sooner but he was a genuine star.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?

Its so obvious... Just shows how clueless the board isIn 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!
Mate, when you have no point to any of your posts, you really start to lose any credence or credibility.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.
No but I want proper change at the club and that only happens with someone like Ten Hag imo.So you will be fed up when he takes charge for the first time then
