Thanks.
Now you see that's my point and where I disagree with some. People have actually insinuated that he transformed duds with a magic trick while I said that he didn't, he is a good coach that helped talented players achieve their potential. Why people see that as a criticism or underrating is a mystery, I simply don't think that he transformed anyone and I simply think that there is at least two tier of manager above him.
Someone pointed out that Ten Haag is actually older than Pep, which was startling to me as well. He's definitely aged well. Looks really young.
They literally have a game tomorrow and we have one today. Things should become clear after. Or possibly even when Pochettino speaks today.
I don't think there's an alternative? All their coaching staff seem to be guys that Poch took there. The game is tomorrow, I don't think they can get an adequate stand in in that time. Maybe a youth team coach or something I guess.
This is even more startling as Pep looks much older.
You really don't understand why spending £400M in 2 and a half seasons and spending £400M in 5 seasons arent the same thing?
you just like poch. Its not trolling its just the truth. It was there for the taking that season with the spurs side he had and the form other top teams were in. Thats how Leicester won it. He will win jack all here. He’s a nearly man
Pep comes across as a few centimeters away from insane so that's probably aged himThis is even more startling as Pep looks much older.
I will say it once again Laurens is an hack, some of the things he said yesterday comes from things that were said on RMC radio a bit earlier. I have no proof but I highly suspect that it was his source and most of was speculation and opinions from pundits in a show named l'After Foot, at the end of that Fred Hermel said that of course PSG have been in contact with Zidane and that it's true for all managers, everyone is in contact with everyone but that there is currently nothing, he added that he personally believes that Zidane could be tempted by PSG but that he has reservations due to his attachment to Marseille.
A nearly man?
That's been my feeling too, so far I've seen nothing except speculation and the usual made-up claims of being in the know.
Is he really
I always thought he is a man of opinion more than a man of actual sources of inside information (generally speaking). But I thought for French football he must have some sources.So he doesn't have sources at PSG?
Yeah thats true
Because we're incompetent.
Its not embarassing. He flopped ligue 1 with PSG last season and needed lots of spending and messi to win it. He didnt do anything. Its just obvious that if you sack a manager who cant win anything but gets top 4 every season why replace them with a manager who has had that ceiling in the PL its like continuing the dark ages.
Few actually have sources and they aren't working for foreign papers. And I have never seen him say anything that isn't openly discussed in french sport talk shows.
With a situation like this it'll all be through intermediaries anyway. United won't contact Pochettino directly, that would just piss off PSG, they'll contact the club first. But they wont want to contact PSG til they know he's interested, so they'll be finding out if he's interested from 3rd parties. So no direct talks, but that's not the same as no interest.
I'm not crazy about Poch myself but let's be honest here, Messi has hardly set the world alight for PSG
Because we had a manager in the job.

No at 62% and yes at 38%
Things change. Also, we're abit of a mess anyway. Say one thing, do another.
It was not known that Poch would be really keen to come immediately. I think the thought at the time was that Poch/Ten Hag would prefer to come in the summer.
Things can change quickly. Poch obviously wants to come here now. Its sensible from his point of view. He needs this season to evaluate the squad and have his transfer targets in place for Jan and the summer.
