Mauricio Pochettino

The Athletic are saying that United will contact him if results don't approve, This has happened far too often under Ed Woodward, It needs to stop in my opinion.

Though I’m fully prepared if Poch does come and succeed the narrative will be ‘Ole built the groundwork for his success’.

If he does it with the same team, then it would be right.

Shame Sir Tim Sherwood didn’t get the credit he deserved for laying the groundwork for his success at Spurs.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

It was groundbreaking. Up there with the world class job Nigel Adkins did at Saints before Poch.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
How did Adkins do at Southampton?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

It was quite a similar thing to how the current United situation is actually. Started badly, then turned things around and had then the fans got right behind him.

But the owners annoyed the fans by hiring Poch eventually the fans realised just what a gift they’d been given and it was clearly an upgrade.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not really similar at all

You’re right. Adkins did a better job than Ole.

He did, a lot better. Nothing to say Adkins couldn't have done as well as Poch.

Still that's another team.
I do believe giving Ole until Christmas is the right decision, barring a collapse

And that is the crux of the problem here. The lack of acknowledgement of the difference between a good manager and a very good manager. And that difference is huge.

It’s inevitable he’s coming imo. If Ole survives this next run of games I’ll dance naked on Bondi beach. And you can bookmark that.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Lol

Bookmarked
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Can you please define the next run of games Robb? Just so there's no squirming out of this one
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Squirming out of the bet or squirming out of his bathing suit?

He doesn’t need to (though I’m sure he could). We aren’t looking for someone to promote us from lower divisions. We’re looking for someone who can make good players very good players at the highest level.
