People are actually surprised that Poch seems ready to ditch PSG for man utd grin

That PSG na white elephant project..the team is not very Balanced and the expectations are probably unrealistic because of that front three
PSG major problem is the egos.
I'm not sure Poch can actually stamp his author over there.

So who are you suggesting we go for?
Lol.
To be quite honest, i have no dog in the race.

I'm up for anyone who will be able to get the best out of the current crop of players,but keep in mind that some of the game's elite have come here,(maybe past their prime) and have had to struggle with the demands of the club.
Obviously it's going to be tough working with the idiocy that is fully on display at the board level.

So at this point I'm not so sure any manager worth his salt will still not go the way of the others.

Everybody is eager for Ten Hag. Egbon is quite good. He did great at Utrecht and now Ajax..

But then his CV is not even as good as Poch..

Poch did well for spurs. Not many can get 5 years of back to back CL football with the limited budget Spurs had relative to the big 4.. He massively overarchieved with that squad. Ihaven't even mentioned what he managed to do at Espanyol & Southampton.

If you are questioning Poch's credibility then i don't know how Ten Hag is getting a free pass..

I am still gutted we didn't get conte though.
On the highlighted,
I think that's the more reason we ought to be careful.

This was the same song they sang with Moyes.
Though to be fair,Poch did get into the top 4 with a lot more regularity than the Scottish Ole Gunnar Solksjaer.
All the same,I'd like to look more at the technical aspect of his resume,rather than things like those. And as you put it plainly,he does have the nuts in the bag for the winter as regards his cv.

Poch is a very good manager,dare I say an excellent one.

But will he be able to handle the pressure at Man. United where success is demanded from day one?

It is not really about avoiding a challenge. The France job is his dream job and he has been waiting patiently for his old captain Deschamps to leave for him to take over. His dream is to win the World Cup with France as manager. It makes zero sense for him to accept the United job.
Ok,possible that I didn't see it from that point of view.

Poch is shit but anyone better than Ole is welcome for now.

However, if Poch screws up, he would get sacked too. The Glazers have now shown that handing a contract to any manager isn’t a bulletproof vest.

They have now sacked Mourinho/Ole in the same year they were given a new contract. The fact that Poch wants to leave a team that has Messi/Mbappe/Neymar to United should tell even the dumbest person that Poch has no ambition.

Let Poch come, the same standards applied to Jose and Ole shall be applied to him. He has no excuses but to deliver. He’s managed in this league before so he would even get less leeway than Ole. At this point, only Zidane makes sense. If he’s not available, any other person shall be welcome.
Still not sure about the emboldened.

To me,Zidane is making excuses to avoid the challenge and waiting safely for the France job.

Language? Poch hired a translator while at Southampton and kept using him for the early parts of his tenure at Spurs (CAVEAT:I AM NOT ENDIRSING POCH IN ANY WAY O. I BEG UNA)

Using his wife to say he doesn't want to move to Englad etc.

I'm not entirely sold on him till I see him do something outside Real.

Just my take

That's why I said probably, If he had played some of the last matches we lost like against Watford, we would surely had conceded less goals and the board won't deem it bad enough to sack sack Ole.
Fair enough, was just giving my opinion.

You passed the first test. tongue

The second test(the final test) is for you to write a comment that “KingAlabi and the other Olesexuals are morons.”

Once you write that, put your bitcoin wallet address under the comment so you can be blessed this day.

Hot take..

If Varane was not injured, Ole would probably still be our manager right now.
Not really true.

He was being let down by Harry & Victor.

We still lost with him in the squad & played shït.

He only papers the cracks because on his own he's quite brilliant.

A defence with McFred as cover will still ship in goals.

It depends.
If it has a pass code lock you might be lucky. Depending on your phone's security setting they might wipe the phone and not have access to your data,and reinitializing it (I.e reconfiguring it for use) might require that same pass code to be put in,rendering it almost useless for the thief,though there are more and more bypass solutions around these days.
Both Android and iOS offer tracking features that need to be activated for them to work.

No more nonesense talks from this idiot grin

Unrepentant slowpoke
It's no wonder he spent over £400million and has zero to show for it

This is a man who actually managed the biggest club in England if not the world.

Imagine.

Someone should slam the door in the face of this albino Godfrey Esu on his way out and kick him on his flat backside as a parting gift.

This insane muppet has to take things personal EVERY DAMN TIME.
You can't face me on your own merits because your game is wack,your logic is always flawed and you're too stupid to realize how foolish your name looks,and how that correlates with the rancid idiocy you display in here.
Barking at every opposing view like the immature pūssy that you are.

.
I hope you are carrying Ole's bag to the airport,you deranged eunuch.

The way this garrulous imp kept barking at those of us who wanted Ole out,you'd think he and his cassava farmer father founded Nairaland.


Go get married first you failed garage boy.

Rangnick’s personality is not a problem. The question is are they willing to give up control to someone who has been proven to be a visionary.

At the top of our hierarchy we have a set of people who are more concerned about how things look than how things really are.


Anybody who is celebrating without knowing who comes in to replace Solskjaer might be in for a rude awakening. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
I think we are saying the same thing with different syntaxes.
But you succinctly put it with the emboldened.

I just think Ralf demands he gets his way,something those jokers aren't willing to grant him,at least not yet.

Yeah. They’re more focused on their NFL team, which is quite natural, as per Americans.

Man United is more like just another source of income to them, as per side hustle. Hence the delay in making the right decisions.
And a money pumping distraction at that.
They just sit back and watch the money rolling in in barrels.
With minimum effort and expertise.

How can they be bothered to give a fūćk about United?

This is the route I would go actually.

Rangnick until end of the season then Ten Hag come summer while Rangnick moves up to DoF.

Fletcher, Carrick, McKenna, Phelan should all get their pink slips.
Do you think those clowns can handle a personality like Ragnick?
Do you think he can even coexist with those mediocre up there?

Just asking for a friend.

Erik ten Hag is possible if we prioritize him...As you said it will take some convincing and assurances...

We can’t easily get Ten Hag. He is not a fool and if you can see that the club is dysfunctional then I am certain he can see it as well.

It will take serious convincing for any ambitious top manager to leave his job and join us mid-season.

Zidane doesn’t speak English, his wife is from Spain and hates British weather, and Zidane himself will not be focus on the job if he comes as he will be looking to leave for the France job.

Based on the Glazers’ unique levels of incompetence there is a possibility that things actually get worse post-Amaka, depending on how they handle the succession.
Ten Haag will demand to have his way like Jose and will eventually fall out with the board like Jose did.
The real problem is those clowns on our board.

I believe Ralf Ragnick cam do a job for at leastv2-3 years.

My fear for Fletcher/Carrick combo is that if they manage to see the team through a string of good results we might be back to where it all started with their former team mates and emotional fans backing them to get the job on a permanent basis and with the Glazers, I am certain they will get the job...I don't want another 2-3 yrs wasted because of nepotism...

Ralf Ragnick is another solid choice to hold things down on an interim basis...
They won't. They must be a special kind of idiöt to repeat the legend madness after this Ole fiasco.

That's why i said the fan base must unite globally to make their voices heard that interim is interim.

For me I don't mind waiting years for the right thing to be done.
For me it's a struggle.

One way or the other, we will get it right.

Might not be today tomorrow,next week,month or year.

But we surely will.
