NathStPaul Franchise FC NathStPaul Makes sense. If he gets the funds I think he will do a great job there. People seem to forget the job he did in the first few seasons with Spurs, turned them into a really good club, the 2nd best team in England at one point.
That’s all true, but the only trophy he’s picked up as a manager is one French Cup, despite having easily the best team, on paper, in the Ligue 1.
He’s clearly a very good manager but, for whatever reason, seems to not have the little extra it takes to get the silverware.
Think he is the wrong man for PSG, that job is made for Zidane imo. Poch comes across as needing players who will run through brick walls for him and as talented as that PSG squad are, they are a bit lightweight and do down tools on a regular basis. I also think his particular style of play is far more suited to the Premier League. He will have similar issues at United in terms of lightweight players but I would think he will get a certain amount of money to fix that next summer, United are a better long term project for him imo. I'd imagine he has little/no control over transfers at PSG where as he will probably get free reign at United.
Tbh I’d be all for it just so as to stop the dull Poch to United rumour every time the position opens up
As you say, I think Pochettino needs players committed to the project to succeed. Given the United players downed tools on LVG, Mourinho and now Ole, there’s clearly a recurring theme going on. If he’s allowed to stamp his own authority on the team, it’ll be a good appointment but considering the amount they’ve spent in recent years, they’d probably have to shift a lot of three deadwood first. Ironically one of those teams who spend more and more summer and yet somehow find themselves with more questions than answers each time
they wouldn't? would they?
