Pochs is the superior manager at the moment. However he's not what United needs at the moment. We need a replacement to SAF which means he needs to be a top scout, a top head coach whose superb in both man management AND tactics, a person whose top notch in spotting and developing young talent and whose influence can allow us to buy/sell players easily. Pochs can't do that, same as Ole.
So instead of spending 50m for a man who'll be out of depth at United (in the current setup) and would probably feck to Madrid at his first opportunity then why not invest that in the infrastructure? Lets bring in the best DOF, the best technical director, the best head of recruitment and for heaven sake lets get SAF back in a consultant/member of the board role. In such circumstances we can bring in a young manager, who understand the club, whose more then decent in man management skills, whose tactics and ideas makes sense and whose got the attitude to listen and learn from the best. Ole ticks all the right boxes.
If we're able to get Zorc as DOF, Berta as sporting director and Mitchell as head of recruitment then the manager's role would become that of a head coach. This would benefit
a- Woodward who can then focus on what he does best ie making money
b- Ole, who'll have the best people around him to help him grow career wise
c- Manchester United who'll finally have expert people in their role + a young manager, on a low salary, who understand the club and would give his outmost in a time of upheaval. If he does well, then we've got our long term manager. If not, then we can easily sack him and bring someone else, hopefully at a time when the big guns had settled down and can choose wisely their next move.
