Voted simeone but thought it read someone as I had a couple pints
Yeah it’s completely insane for Utd fans to think Guardiola won’t be our next manager after Mourinho. It’s not like he is managing City or anything, right?Pochettino before Guardiola?
Sure. That's completely sensible.
Insane.
Lol. Bit harsh.Pochettino is bascially Moyes five years ago.
Maybe. But the reason Moyes struggled the most was that he never experienced managing a big club like United.Lol. Bit harsh.
No one is interested in Blanc because he's not really a good manager.Blanc is an interesting one, I am surprised he's still not hired somewhere. Maybe lacks the charisma for the job, though. Did manage Zlatan et al in a seemingly good way on the other hand.
Sarri I really like, but I am not sure if he would be able to integrate well in England. Does he speak English? He seems very Italian to me, pretty old at 58 too.
Poch seems like the obvious and safe pick, I have a hard time seeing him completely fail here anyway. Seems like a very likeable character. Tuchel would be exciting, boom-or-bust for me.
That's not a given at all. I don't believe previous experience is the most important factor. The biggest reasons Moyes struggled so much was because he is a weak and unintelligent man. He didn't even want the job very much. He recounted that "the blood drained from his face" when he was told by SAF "you're the next manager of Man Utd". It was far too big for a small person like Moyes. That doesn't mean others will suffer the same fate, necessarily.Maybe. But the reason Moyes struggled the most was that he never experienced managing a big club like United.
Pochettino will struggle to handle pressure here.
The question isn't 'Who do you think will be'Yeah it’s completely insane for Utd fans to think Guardiola won’t be our next manager after Mourinho. It’s not like he is managing City or anything, right?
Before he managed City then yes he would have been my first choice but I would never, ever want an ex-City manager in charge of Utd.The question isn't 'Who do you think will be'
It's 'Who would you want'.
So yes, it's insane.
I'd never cut my nose off to spite my face.Before he managed City then yes he would have been my first choice but I would never, ever want an ex-City manager in charge of Utd.
Would we like that?Tweet

Get a DoF in place and if he wants Zidane after Mourinho I would not be against that at all.Would we like that?
Mods can move my post and start a new thread, if they think it’s worth it - L’equipe is actually as good of a source as it gets.
Personally I would love to see Simeone manage United one day.LOL at anyone voting Simeone. The main idea is to get better football, isn't it? Ancelotti is a shitty option too.
Why on earth would you want that?Personally I would love to see Simeone manage United one day.
Why? Given what's at stake, the board are never going to give the managerial job to someone with no relevant experience.Should have Nicky Butt & possibly Carrick in there.
Real Madrid and Barcelona achieved incredible things with inexperienced managers. Why can't it work for us?Why? Given what's at stake, the board are never going to give the managerial job to someone with no relevant experience.
Because without a doubt he's one of the best managers in the world and I've enjoyed watching his Atletico sides over the years. He's done an amazing job there.Why on earth would you want that?
It may or (more likely) may not work for us. Why take such a massive risk?Real Madrid and Barcelona achieved incredible things with inexperienced managers. Why can't it work for us?
Why not take the risk? We've gone down the path of experience and it's been miserable.It may or (more likely) may not work for us. Why take such a massive risk?
Really wouldn't want Simeone due to his football. A lot here are already sick to death of Mourinho, this would just be another slap in the faceI do love Simeone but not sure how well he'd fit. His style wouldn't be terribly different from Jose's and he's so settled and loving it at Atletico it seems he wouldn't come anyway.
