Shocking but also quite foreseeable. It was not a marriage that made sense.It’s a big fuck up not winning that league. Mid season or not.

I think that's worse as then it might not be a team that he would have built in the style he wants and he'll want to change again. In him we always had the right man and he put together a great team but needed that a couple of ready made world class players to get us over the line. So if we are going to hire him at some point then doing it now is better when a rebuild is needed. But don't think he will ever manage us again. Don't think he will work with levy again. Whoever we get, we just need to support them and let THEM do the recruitmentI have no problem with Poch coming back one day. But coming back now/this summer is way too early.
There needs to be more time between his stint and a potential second one to allow for a clear out in the squad. So that when he comes back it is more or less a blank slate for him to work with instead of dealing with a lot of the players that got him sacked to begin with.
Last time I did a bit of digging in relation to this, it seemed to me that PSG fans see him as someone who is just passing through. In particular, his in-game management was driving them around the twist.
Tuchel is definitely the better manager of the two. PSG probably regretting decision to sack him.
Dont think we should rehire poch either. Wasnt very good at recruiting new players at all. Our best form with poch came from the players that were bought during AVB's time + Kane.
He’s not the man. Our team at its peak was wiping the floor with Real and Dortmund taking a point away at Barca, spanking City and Chelsea etc
But Poch just can’t deliver over a sustained period. You can’t install a winning mentality if you don’t have one.
He’s been a manager since 2008, and if anyone wants to say he won that cup at PSG after basically stepping off the plane, we’ll that’s desperate stuff.
The title and CL would be his.
Not going to plan though
He'll end up at Real Madrid eventually.Got to agree and I have said this.
Until you do something you are not quite sure you can do it, which means you are always nearly.
Absolutely no point beating Bayern if you then lose to City. Of course it's a hard ask but it's what the top top managers do.
The problem Pochettino will encounter if he fails to win anything at PSG is that he goes where next?
PSG, not in hindsight are not a good fit. They want success yesterday and Pochettino works for tomorrow.

They get through so many managers though. Only a matter of time before he gets offered the job, regardless of how he does with PSG.That is a big call. If he fails to win anything at PSG no chance in my opinion.
Klopp more likely.
Pochettino will find it hard to get one of the top tier elite jobs if he fluffs his lines and can’t win a league at PSG. There were openings in some of those jobs in the last year at Barcelona, Bayern and Juventus and he didn’t land any. I would suspect his failure to win any silverware and the sense of nearly man off him was a factor. A mid level Premier League job at the likes of Newcastle or Leeds might be the next assignment.That is a big call. If he fails to win anything at PSG no chance in my opinion.
Klopp more likely.
Or ManUHe'll end up at Real Madrid eventually.
Poch went for the quick fix, guaranteed titles and all his disciples got giddy at the thought of him shoving one up Spurs.Got to agree and I have said this.

If Chelsea win the CL, PSG will be too embarrassed not to sack him0% chance Poch gets sacked at end of the season.
Next season, maybe, but not after six months.
Doesn't matter to PSG it's a club with impossible expectations.Fuck me poch has only been there 5 minutes and hasn’t even had a chance to get a proper summers training or transfers in. He’ll need longer than 6 months to turn a team of mercenaries into champions
What a fucking bellendIm delighted that he’s struggling, after the state he left us in. Absolutely ruined everything he built here.
Yeah, I mean look at him proving us all wrongWhat a fucking bellend
His team beat Barcelona and Bayern and fell short to what I think is the best team in the world at the minute. Nothing wrong with that.Yeah, I mean look at him proving us all wrong
Didn’t you celebrate him winning the charity shield after one training session with Tuchels team?His team beat Barcelona and Bayern and fell short to what I think is the best team in the world at the minute. Nothing wrong with that.
Not winning the league is indeed an issue but besides Neymar and Mbappe, maybe Paredes and Di Maria, who else is world class in that team? They’ve got Kean in attack (lol), some clowns I never heard of in fullbacks, Gana who’s played for Everton and that’s about it.
Poch will be given a proper transfer budget this summer to sort that back 4 out - not a Levy specialHis team beat Barcelona and Bayern and fell short to what I think is the best team in the world at the minute. Nothing wrong with that.
