Will Poch leave Spurs for United

I was talking about the style of football and pressing tactics etc

Poch’s style is closer to Real’s or PSG’s purely on the basis those sides like to attack. Jose turned his side into one that prefers camping in its own half for the majority of a game.

Just think from Poch’s perspective, he’d have to do similar at Utd to what he’s done here in terms of completely rebuilding a side, albeit with a much bigger budget to help. Why go through another transitional period when he can likely go to one of the others and more or less guarantee himself a trophy?

Do you really think they need a rebuild? They've got a lot of quality players who will flourish under a better/more progressive coach.

Because at Man Utd he'd be given time to get it right. At Real and PSG, he'd be sacked within three months if things weren't going swimmingly.

Man Utd have some quality players already btw, it's not a massive rebuild, it's a change of attitude required.

You really think the players preferred doing that <laugh>


So naive :grin:

Think they need a whole new defence with maybe Shaw an exception seeing as he flourished under Poch beforehand. Don’t think Lukaku would suit Poch’s style either, he ain’t a team player and Poch likes Kane to be more than a goal scorer.

It’s harder to fail at PSG than it is to succeed, they have no real competition. Think he’d breeze Ligue 1. Real definitely won’t be easy but it seems to be every managers dream.
 
Apparently he would be a really good fit at Man Utd...

Post #21 :emoticon-0100-smile

Jose turned it into a side that prefers camping. The players clearly didn’t prefer it hence the dog **** performances and results from players who can generally play good football. Ain’t really that hard to comprehend is it, even for you?

Define your difference between side and players, if Poch takes over will he be taking over Jose's side or players?

He’d be taking over a side that’s been ****ed by Jose. Three years of that style of football may need some time to ween out of the system. Even if he managed to nail it early doors, there’s still the problem of Man City he’d have to overcome, which, for as long as I see Pep there, likely won’t happen.

Compare that with taking over a side who already produces good attacking football like PSG/ Real... the transition would be a lot easier with PSG as he’s more or less guaranteeing two/ three trophies a season. Will be harder with Real what with Barca around but likely an easier chance of success than over here with Utd/ City.
 
My reasons for voting that he will go to Utd;
1 - Whether you like it or not, Utd are a bigger draw than Spurs
2 - Utd can play with the big boys when it comes to transfer fees and salaries
3 - Spurs new stadium could be a limiting factor in transfer funds available, especially with some expensive overrun costs on the horizon. I appreciate that they have said funding to get it finished is in place, but assume that means additional debt, which will have to be serviced.
4 - After the last couple of Utd managers, this is, IMO, an ideal time for Poch to go. I think he will be given time by the club and probably more importantly the fans.
5 - He's proved with Spurs that he can get a team to at least 4th in the league and has experience of the CL. This will keep the Glazers happy as the money will keep rolling in during any transition.

I agree, good post.
 
This poll is a counter to all the wummery that's been going down on Pixie's ill-advised thread. It's beginning to peter out, now, but I want everyone who was giving it large on that thread to vote here.

I've given the wumsters two choices.

I note that not one of them has had the nads to go with the "this season" option.

In a way, therefore, I have already won the debate.

^^^^ Rattled.

My thread wasn’t even about Poch. I’ve got you fizzing and it’s all your own work.

Take a bow Forrest. :)
