I'd be surprised if he won the Champions League, Barca made them look a lot better than they actually are.I guess if he wins the champions league he’d deserve an interview for the United job.
No doubt. We would have parked the bus and they would score 2 or 3 goals. Then we would be saying "It is still Barca with Messi" and shit like that
Last I checked we beat PSG when they were at full strength with Di Maria and Neymar, so I'm going to have to doubt that.
Swap the two managers and PSG still win. Barca is finished. They've had an incredible run but their time as the very best is over for now. They will be back though at some point.
Agree, big mistake.
You do realise Ole knocked out a stronger PSG side without buying any players as an interim manager without a 5 year plan
Leicester spent less than £4.50 and beat him to the league.
Then when it mattered we lost. A final 16 seems like it matters. So we would have lost.
Key question on interview; "Will you park the car on Fergie's spot? You will?? Goodbye"I guess if he wins the champions league he’d deserve an interview for the United job.
Can't tell Poch supporters, they think they hammered prime Barcelona tonight.
2013 to replace Fergie. 2016 to build on what van Gaal was trying to build. Recently as a free agent. I would've loved him here at any of those times.
Of course but to do that at the Camp Nou is brilliant. Not just the score but the football on show.
They didn't have Poch then. Huge difference.
Oh yes. Your remember the game? They battered us we got the luck of the draw.
Love the guy and would have loved for him to replace Ole but I don't think one should read too much into today's result. Barca are a really poor team. We'll see how good he is if/when he faces a Bayern/Liverpool/Atleti.
Got it 100% tonight.
Barca's last knockout CL game was 8-2. Relax, its a shit Barcelona
Ok, fun is over. What is done is done. We are lucky that PSG hired someone quickly because if Poch wasn't available, they would probably offer job to Ole. We were lucky there
Says it all about United that they chose to have Ole before Pochettino. Shocking decision by a professional football club.
Tonight doesn’t make him a top manager, but make no mistake, he clearly is one.
Have you ever taken any pleasure out of “supporting” this club?
I just went back to your posts from years ago and you were the same miserable creature back then.
Oh noes! We bought Carrick and not Diarra! This club is going nowhere fast!
PSG had a very poor first half of the season
Champions league finale late August, then key players including neymar and mbappe got COVID in Ibiza, then the start of the season without physical preparation and playing every 3 days and injuries like i have never seen. Too many injuries to count.
I watch most of the PSG games and they are way better physically for the past few games
Beating PSG in october / november is not the same as beating them now
It’s one game. If he wins the entire thing then fair enough.
He has already got to a final and had a joke of a decision go against him in the first few minutes.
With this squad I think he can go all the way. It's a lot better than the Spurs team he took to the final and to be honest you would expect a top manager to take this PSG all the way. It's going to be interesting to see how he gets on.
Di Matteo won a CL as an interim manager, now that's impressive.
While they are not what they wre used to, if you look at the line up, it´s still great players, they should do much better
Are you okay? You went back and quoted a post I made in 2006
Jesus Christ. I’ve never called anyone sad on this forum but man!!
I mean explain what this has to do with Poch?
As for miserable. I come on here to discuss sh!te. Do you really think I would want to express my excitement and celebrations on a forum. When we won stuff I celebrated with my friends
But apparently Ole is better on less evidence? Okay

Just pointing out that for the last 15 years you’ve been a tedious doom merchant that does nothing but moan about United and yet expect people to take you seriously.
Who said that?
They battered us all over the park, we had a Buffon fumble infront of Lukaku, a defenders back pass that was played short and into Lukaku's path for a 1v1, and a penalty, that's how we won, not by some managers wonder plan
The attack he inherited cost £400m alone to assemble. Honestly, even you must understand how ridiculous you sound. Solskjaer isn't a better manager than Pochettino, by a long stretch in my opinion, but you lot have found some very strange ways to arrive at that conclusion. Plus that Barcelona team is complete shite.
The people who are happy we kept Ole instead of going for Pochettino, when all evidence and people with eyes know Pochettino is a better manager
Yeah, but key word, inherited. Everyone on here was banging on about, we can't judge Ole when he hasn't got any of his own players! Why is it only our club that has to wait for a manager to sign their own players and do something in like 5 seasons time, where as every other manager has to inherit their squad and do something with it
Those of us who are fans of his aren't basing it on one game, though. For me, it goes back to his time at Espanyol where, after a Barcelona -Espanyol derby, Pep raved about the style he implements on his team. Though it wasn't until his Southampton days where I was fully sold on him.
Knowing our horrendous luck, we will end up finishing outside the top 4 and Pochettino will end up winning the Champions League.
Actually that sounds exactly like what people are doing, maybe you not personally but many are acting as if this one game has completely confirmed every opinion they ever held on the man, as if this isn't the first leg of the first knock out stage.
Again it’s one post. You don’t know my tone. I come on here to discuss topics and gather the temperature of the fan base not to join some kind of weird sing a long.
I don’t have a clue what context that post was about but find it weird that you personally took it upon yourself to do research on me. You writing a Mainoldo dissertation?
Its not luck its choices
