If I remember correctly we did lose someone like this, and he blamed Levy and his micromanagement.
I really think our scouting went to shit because of that. I can't remember his name for the life of me though.
Unsung heroes these scouts..

Paul Mitchell??
Lloris > One of the most high-profile keepers in Europe
Vertonghen > Captain of Ajax and was available for a cheap fee
Dembele > Played for Fulham and got rave reviews.
These were hardly unknowns!
There like buying Donaruma, Rice, and Bissouma
We would have signed castagne instead of Doherty by that logic, so obviously something went wrong!
Think so yeah
If we didn’t like torturing ourselves why would we support Spurs, it’s not for the glory, or the fact the tickets are cheap that’s for sure
He’s doing a great job at Monaco as Sporting Director. Poch had the chance of going there before PSG which would have been a good link up.
I could see Levy approaching him due to the lack of choices but I can't really see Poch wanted to come back while Levy is at the club. He wanted to rebuild and take us to the level, Levy thought he knew better and could find a manager who could use the same tools and get a better result, he was wrong.
Then with poch our big money buys were locelso, ndombele, sanchez, who apparently got rave reviews but they are bang (slightly above) average.
See Jardim and Monaco. The wounds are still too fresh.
Mugabe went back to Chelsea 6 years later
This could be the desperation talking, but... Neymar and Mbappe are probably leaving, the fans are pissed that Poch doesn't have PSG running away with Ligue 1... maybe. Just maybe.
I guess its time for a BUMP ;-)
TBH I don't think its the best idea but if we can't get Ten Hag I would rather him than Potter or Parker.
