Some people were saying he is not an improvement. Some were acting like Poch is a plague.

I don't know how bad his set up must have been for people to hate him on this board too much.

The disrespect is real here.
No people are thinking long term. It's the same way some clubs won't consider Sarri or Mourinho or whatever. Those guys are good but not just the one they want. If you say you don't want Sarri, it doesn't mean Sarri is a plague

Hatred for Poch will never let you guys see the big picture.
After not spending for years they suddenly sign Ndombele and whoever so they should be okay, right? When you already have a lot of players past their prime that should have been gradually replaced in previous summers.

2017/18 season, Poch took Tottenham to third place even with no backing in the transfer window. The following summer Tottenham broke record. They were the first premier league club in history not to make a single signing or loan. No single addition!!! Poch utilised that squad and got to the Champions league final!!!


The disrespect you guys throw on Poch because of your love for Ole is alarming to be honest. Guy achieved whatever he could achieve with minimal backing.


Previous 22 years before Poch got to spurs they qualified for UCL only twice. When Poch got there they qualified for UCL 4 out of 5 season. Meanwhile United were somewhere spending millions every season and we still fell short. Chelsea also felt short once or twice, Arsenal fell short. This man did this back to back with minimal signing.
Your guy Mourinho was here for 2+ out of those seasons and he made UCL just once. The 3rd one was definitely going to end outside top 4 with the results he was getting. Don't forget he spent much more that Poch did. Las las Poch is a better coach than Mourinho and Tottenham lack ambition for replacing Poch with Mourinho

He does not have trophies. cheesy

I no dey follow "Poch is not a good coach talk" narrative.

If the board are serious about him, they will get him.

I believe he is a very good coach.
I'm not sure anybody said Poch is not a good coach.

There are only concerns about how he sets up his team to play

Nawa oh.... which key players una dey cry about for this thread...I'm guessing it's Son and Kane


For what I know...Son and Kane have been getting in & out of injuries through their Tottenham career

But despite all these.... Tottenham remained a threat all through Pochettino's time and they even had some Ucl spells back then

And it could also be said that Poch got tired of Tottenham and intentionally got himself sacked from the job just like Mourinho did at MUFC... before they left their respective clubs, they were making snide remarks in the media
Yet Son and Kane combined have almost double the G/A the whole other members of the squad put together almost every season. Those two are quality and will start in almost every team in the world.

He's too comfortable on the Bench to be honest. He cares not if he plays or not, as far as weekly Allawee no bounce.

When DDG was laying Egggs like overfed Breeder, he didn't push enough to be in charge. We've seen what Henderson is capable of - as good as prime DDG, he deserves the Spot.
This is not true. Romero only option is to leave the club as Henderson is English but the club won't lower their asking price. There is nothing he can do about that

Lmaooo. Were we in the same situation as Bayern or Barca or Juve? Those ones can experiment whichever way they wanted.

I said it then if we wanted to sign a manager, it had to be the right choice!!
Lmaoooooo do you think those clubs are here to catch cruise ni? Juve should have stuck with Sarri since they have all the time to experiment

Kai some football fans and short term memory. When poch joined Tottenham who were the high quality players that enabled him diss out results and bring out consistent top four finishes one ex-big celebrates like trophy.

has Kane not be injured for periods before, how about Erikson, or Ali, or even Son. Has Lloris not gone on injuries and so many others yet Tottenham was a force in EPL because of Poch. The caliber of teams he should move to are like Juve, barca, Madrid who at one point seriously considered him.

d way Una dey analysis managers dey fear person sha, he had some bad months after losing UCL finals and not getting the dybala he wanted to revive his team's attack with fresh legs. Saying poch becomes handicap due to a few players is harsh. Top managers know a team needs to he refreshed 3/4years to keep them competitive
Try dey make am shorter so I can respond. I can't read all these

So what's his crime Bros?
He didn't commit any crime. His style is not sustainable and heavily dependent on high quality players. Any loss in form to one or two of his key players, we'll be in trouble. And by the time he's leaving, we will be back to square one

The year Poch spent a lot of money to buy players was the year his team flopped. This was because his key players that he has always depended on lost form

United fans are funny. You say you don’t want Poch because he hasn’t won anything(at least he’s been to the UCL) but want Neglesman who hasn’t even been to a final nor won anything . cheesy

He can’t even really compete in the German league and you expect him to win Epl..
Not because he hasn't won anything

What criteria is that?
A legend is a person with notable historic achievements in his field.
Ronaldo is still the only player in English football history to win the World best player award.

Easily our best player in the 21st century and you say no be legend?
Abeg make una take am easy na.
Let's just say you misunderstood my statement and I am in no mood to shalaye

What's United's criteria?
Sometimes, you just need to do one singular thing, and the club finds you worthy of being a legend. For some others, its something they did over a long period of time. It depends on the memories you give to the club and its fans. For Ole, we can't talk about Manchester United without mentioning that single goal to win us the Champions League in our treble winning season

And what unique thing did ole do aside the tap-in ?

O'Shea isn't a striker. Let's judge him by the number of appearances.
Aside? Should we play a game of aside now?

What unique thing does Messi do aside dribble, score and assist?

We need PORSCHE..

At least the league is still early and we still in the group stages of the CL, even if OLE pulls off a smokescreen against PSG,Arsenal and the rest.

We'll be better off letting him go tbh.

Just to be clear PORSCHE is better than OLE on the wheels of steel beetle.

The other players in other clubs are not called legends.

For a club like united to see ole as a legend is shocking. We all know why he's called a legend Sha .

"Certificate of long term service "
Every club has their legends and they have their reasons why. Fulham haven't won the champions league but they have their own legends. So you can't say it must be the same criteria for every club.

Meanwhile we're still waiting for those unique stats or things Berbatov, Saha, Oshea and co did that made you place them in the same category as Ole
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by eph12(m): 7:57pm On Oct 06, 2020
Joezinho:
What are the reasons he listed?

Can you put ole and George best on the same level? Or Bobby Charlton? What exactly did Ole do for the club that the likes of Hernandez, park and co didn't do?

He scored in a UCL final. Beletti did it.

Jerzy dudek was the hero when Liverpool won it.

A player dubbed as "Super-sub" shouldn't be considered a legend Cox he was better off the bench than when he started matches..
You've mentioned what every other player in every other club did except the ones that played for Manchester United who you feel belong to the same category as Ole.

As for me I feel say na crack
