I want him to be the next manager but just wish it was a proper football person appointing him and not the bloody Woodpecker
He'll declare us winners of the Prem and demand that all other matches be suspended. It's worth a try.
Horsepoop. At least do some research before you spot nonsenseReeults in games like this won't change under Pochettino and he has a fecking shambolic record in big games too so we'll be worse off.
Plus we won't be reaching later rounds of cups.
And he's shit at transfers.
And says he doesn't need to win trophies, what kind of attitude is that?
I understand why people are Ole out, but is potch really the answer?
What has he achieved in management?
And what? We still have midtable players like, Henderson, Maguire, Lindelof, Shaw, AWB, Mata, McTominay, Lingard, James, Martial and Rashford and more.
Let's assume Ole is gone in the morning. Who would Woodward appoint? Poch? Nagelsmann? Allegri? Zidane? What if the new manager finds that the current players do not suit their style? Bring more players in and we struggle to ship out the deadwoods? Or worse. What if these prima Donnas down tools again and throw the new manager under the bus?
I feel before we bring in another manager, it is imperative that we setup a structure, starting with a Director of Football. Ralf Rangnick perhaps to begin with? Then we could think about bringing in another manager. Otherwise managers will come and go every 2 years and we will be like hitting the reset button everytime. We will probably not win anything at this rate, even after 30 years.
Start a petition. If it gets to 100,000 signatures surely the club will have to discuss it?
No they wouldn't
Stay off the bottle and pillsTell me what top team would have those as starters? Rashford and Martial probably on bench of most. Other not good enough.
What a great response! Just keep overrate the players, your opinion.Stay off the bottle and pills
Spot on.Can we not for once take a manager from a club doing well rather than one because he was available at the time because no one wants them.
If we decide to get rid of Ole I'd probably prefer a temporary solution until the end of season and then assess available options. Pochettino would be a long term solution but not a good enough one.
Ohhh that was a joke?
Sorry it's early and I'm still in a bad mood.
This back the manager whats the answer then spend 100s of millions on players till they get it right or expect the manager to coach and develop the players he has already bought in alongside the players there. Every player he has bought so far looks worse than when they joined. That can't be coincidenceNot a fecking clue.
If the board won’t back the manager then I really don’t know how we’re supposed to improve. What happened in the summer was exactly what happened to Jose the summer before he was sacked. Manager identified the targets and the board failed to get them, the season started off poorly and the manager was replaced. We’ve been stuck in the same place since SAF retired.
I‘ve seen progress under Ole in scouting and in parts when we’re really good but we’re shit against the low block and I don’t know if Ole knows how to fix it.
Last time we did that we got stuck with temporary solutionIf we decide to get rid of Ole I'd probably prefer a temporary solution until the end of season and then assess available options. Pochettino would be a long term solution but not a good enough one.
It would be fecking stupid to decide suitability for the role based on one CL group game.If Julian Nagelsmann's job interview was part of that Leipzig game, rest assured he wouldn't be getting a follow-up call from Woodward.
Was never the biggest fan of his football. I'd rather have a manager that hasn't failed at his last club
You.are.right!Why are people desperate for Poch? Has he ever been in a relegation battle?
Big Sam Allardyce is the man to get us out of this mess!
Is that a marker of future success?
Fergie aside, every manager has a shelf life at a club. It can all go to hell if you stay long enough.
What about his record vs the shit teams (the teams we tend to find it hard to play against, we're generally good vs the top teams anyway)?Absolutely.

Actually better in cups than I remember. One good cup run a year but either a semi loss or a final loss (becase he hates to win trophies it seems). I remember the early cup exit was always a theme of his tenure, it almost became a meme and there's one of them a year.
Decent results against Barca and Real.
Distinctly average at best against domestic big teams, bad against Liverpool especially.
Fluked a CL run with a shock result against City over two legs and a fluke last minute winner against Ajax then fecked up the final.
in his best league season he came third in a two horse race, against Leicester.
Do. Not. Want.
He'll declare us winners of the Prem and demand that all other matches be suspended. It's worth a try.

I shall nickname him Maurino = Mauricio Pochettino.
You're welcome.
