    He's not going anywhere though.

    He's there for a long term plan of trophyless domination, HIAG said so.

    Real are welcome to him by the way, the blokes a ****ing failure.

    This.

    Recruiting Pochettino would be a very Woodwood thing to do.

    It's imperative that the next United manager has some connection to the club as we can't go back to the ****ing soulless LVG and Mourinho years.

    Lol...he's an honorable and decent man, always loved listening to his interviews. Even now, no moaning, no complaints, just accepts the situation and moves on respectfully

    Makes you question how much impact he really had on that Leicester squad.

    Well yeah he was there and he rang a fake bell. Was he just right place right time?

    Seems a bit of an anomaly in the grand scheme of his last decade or so.

    Definitely an anomaly but sometimes things just happen. Rahman was a nobody who managed to beat lennox lewis. The greek greek euro team were a pile of nobodies but managed to win a euros etc etc.

    I don't think realistically you could ever think any taking over any side below the top 6 would win a league in the modern game no matter how great of a manager they are

    I stuck a tenner on Leicester being relegated when they appointed Ranieri.

    Still stunned to this day what he pulled off! ****ing amazing.

    There is always an element of what's going on with teams around you. Sometimes your lucks just in.

    Won't go down well but I often wonder how good a manager say poch would be seen as if say man utd hadn't gone through the David moyes and lvg phase? Or arsenal with Wenger at the end? Would spurs have made top 4.

    Don't get me wrong I think spurs have a good 11. But in context of the conversation other teams going through changes has certainly had an impact.

    I'm not knocking spurs by the way just using them as an example
