Ten Hag makes an average attack play good.
Pochettino makes the world’s greatest attackers play like sh!t.

I know who i’d want at United.

P$G were utterly embarrassing and feckless despite having the most expensive and talented squad in the world with the likes of Mbappe and fecking Messi

I would be genuinely curious how the club would try to spin it in one of their articles as to how appointing him is definitely the best move

This. However given the recent media brief that this is the first summer in which Murtough has full agency let's see if he makes the correct footballing decision. I think it should be clear to everyone at this point that Poch is not the person to give the keys to for the next 4 or 5 years.

He didn’t have it in the first leg though where he got outplayed and dominated. They won and got through because of psg mistakes and lack of finishing.

1-0 away against a side with Mbappe, Neymar and Messi. Took them back to their ground and beat them 3-1. That's what you do in the Champions league. And he's top of La Liga.
 
It will be Poch and he will take Messi with him for the ultimate crossover (Ronaldo and Messi in one team for a season).
We're going strong for Europa League
 
Poch asking his gk and defenders to give Real 3 goals to ensure he gets sacked and is free to join Utd. You gotta respect the commitment :D

So you reckon that you just stick loads of attackers on the pitch and you can't lose?

The best sides in the world are the best teams, not the best set of players.

When the owners tell you that you have to play Neymar, Mbappe and an ageing Messi, none of whom want to do pretty much any defensive work you might find it quite hard to win the biggest European trophies.

Those massive mistakes that lead to two of the RM goals were probably training ground exercises from PSG as well :rolleyes:

I wouldn't take too much from how a manager does at PSG. They are just as dysfunctional as United but with more money. Hows that working out for us?
 
I want Poch.

I want to see us destroy teams and win nothing rather than be destroyed and win nothing.

Excuses.
 
Pochettino hasn't done anything eye-catching at PSG, but it is difficult to tell how good or bad he is as a manager when three outfield players are not defending.
 
I don't know if Poch is the right man for United it not. But I don't think tonight's result could tell us either way. PSG has bottled big games under multiple different managers. There's big issues at that club which goes beyond coaching.
 
Poch doesn't seem convincing. I don't know.

Something about him. Even when he won that game against City....he seemed lost, like he doesn't know what to do, just like he seemed lost today when that first goal went in.

Its like he knew. And did nothing to change the fact they're going to lose.
 
If I was a journalist I would write up a "United move to appoint Poch as they believe securing him is now more financially viable" story and watch the hate clicks come in.
 
Without overreacting to one game, I really don't think you can go with a manager who just oversaw a collapse like that when the mentality of this current squad is the biggest obstacle for any new manager coming in.
 
There’s so many different ways you can look at things and see how good a manager really is… psg could of easily got through this tie if there finishing was better, they absolutely dominated the first leg, could of scored a couple in the first halve tonight… finishing isn’t down to a manager or coaching. It’s down to the players to finish the chances they get. However when Madrid scored the equaliser poch should of changed things and turned it back in there favour but he didn’t, it was like he was waiting for a special moment from his front 3 or just a ball over the top to send mbappe 1 on 1. Previous psg managers have bottled big games aswell, guardiola has bottled games with city in the champions league. It’s just the way football is sometimes… great managers can’t win every single game like a lot of people think… there’s gonna be games where the team has a bad day, like when we got smashed 6-1 of city under fergie yet he was the greatest manager of all time. No one knows how good or bad poch would do with us… the same with ten Haag. I just hope our board make the correct decision and stand by it and back the manager to make us successful again.
 
If we take Rangnick 's advice, then we end up with Erik ten Hag.

Take Fergie's advice and we end up with another Moyes disaster.

Love Sir Alex, but he had a lot to play, in our decline.
 
I can't blame him for losing away to Madrid. Only very special managers can defeat Madrid on their patch.

It’s madness but we have yet to hire a manager like that yet. Makes to much sense I guess. Klopp overachieved at Dortmund just like Ten Hag at Ajax

Not advocating Pochettino, but the PSG-job is not a proper job. It is a different sport, playing against semi-amateurs (compared to them) every week and never getting tested before the real stuff. Thomas Tuchel literally failed to win the CL too and many branded him exactly the same a while ago. Not advocating Tuchel’s boring playing style either, but I’m smart enough to know Pochettino never should have accepted PSG. Tuchel got the right job afterwards and quickly restored his rep, I hope Pochettino does too. Spurs is also no measuring stick, they hit a glass ceiling under him against very impressive competition. What he does next will define him, that is for certain. PSG will not, even if he wins a CL next year if he’s still there, a cup is always just a cup.
