All very hypothetical and almost certainly won't happen but if Tuchel was available, where would he rank among candidates for the United job in your eyes?

Number 1 choice ahead of ETH because the uncertainty of ETH is that he hasn't been in charge of a club as big as United with heavy expectations.

He'd be a great get and I'd definitely have him above Pochetino. Still think Ten Hag is the one who can potentially be the next Pep/Klopp level manager. Could well turn out to be the next AVB but I think its a gamble worth taking given our stance and the dominance/consistency of City and Liverpool.

Slightly below Pep and Klopp. Potential to be up there with them. Best manager Chelsea have had.

He has been at Chelsea for 13-14 months and transformed them so much in a short time period. Would also be nice considering the Rangnick link.

No brainer! But can we wait to 31st of May?!

Would be very shrewd and very beneficial for us long term tbh. Quite certain someone like Ralf who helped him get his start in football would back it as well.

Much better option than the current apparent favorite in Poch...

Better than any available opinions. Anyone but that bottler poch, our 5 year drought will become 8.

Spare a thought for Chelsea. With the sanctions I think they can't employ/sign anyone. Who is going to coach Chelsea next season if Tuchel leave? :wenger:

Would have had him before Chelsea, let alone now.

Don't get your hopes up though. Leaving aside Chelsea not being idiots, it makes far too much sense for us to even contemplate it.

I'd prefer him over Poch, easily.
There’s about 10 managers I’d prefer over Poch.

There’s something about Poch which embodies all of our issues over the last near decade.

Yes Yes Yes.

Rangnick as sporting director and his disciple Tuchel as manager. Chelsea can take Jon Murtough and Darren Fletcher in exchange.

He would rank at the top. I only have Klopp above him.

Seeing as it's behind a pay wall, why exactly has it actually become in any way possible we could get him? Are Chelsea really that fecked with the sanctions and sale?
