I wouldn’t expect him to be our Ferguson so I wouldn’t be that bothered if he left after a few years. As you said most managers don’t last long anyway.
Unless he is a success he will last significantly less than that... He'll need to have won a big trophy to last that long.
Has anyone linked Daniel in on this definitive survey?
I'm surprised he hasn't already actioned the mandate of the people.
I want Poch. Unashamed to say I love what he did for this club. I don't even care that he won't win us trophies. I think it's a in the lap of the gods thing now. If everything aligns on each round of a cup we might win one. If Toni, a man who was apparently at the peak of his powers can't get anywhere near the line let alone over it then who is going to?
Let's have someone we love, someone who loves us. And some decent entertainment for our money.

I don’t see why he wouldn’t stick around. Unlike with Spain, Enrique would have the best striker in the world to build his high press possession system around, rather than the likes of Morata.
If anything, I do think he would build a great base to play the “Tottenham way” again
Honestly, yes. He’d be going from Barcelona and Spain… to us.
But if Paratici is still the DOF and he wants him I’d back it even if it’s short term. I think he could build a good foundation for someone else to take over.
Pep's teams don't play beautiful, attacking football why would we want a Pep/Barća disciple?
Stylistically Enrique would fit us very well.
He plays a attacking brand of football without sacrificing defense (Barca fans thought that he was boring before he won them over).
I think the players would all benefit from playing possession football, especially players like Son, Kane and Kulusevski. The more possession we have, the less pressing they have to do during a game.
And after this season, it’s clear players like Son and Kane can’t really press over the whole season anymore. Even if it isn’t Enrique, I believe it should be a possession based manager rather than a high tempo direct one
He's also flexible with how he plays. When he had Iniesta and Xavi they played a more tiki taka inspired style. But when their legs went he went for a more direct style and used midfielders like Rakitic more like extra bodies in attack, not too diffirent from how we use Pierre and Rodrigo.
It could definitely work. Having a guy who is not just one system/formation could do us good.
Shocked Carrick only has 5 votes so far.
For sure. Tactical flexibility is something we’ve been crying out for for a while now. I do think his possession style will work though. We have a one of a kind player in Harry Kane who can not only contribute in all passages of play but is also the finisher and world class striker that can penetrate park the bus teams, something his Spain team just didn’t have. He could fulfill both roles. A 2 in 1 player
Give over
He ain’t gonna give a fuck whether it’s a good look or not if he can step up to Spurs
I’m tempted to start one “which manager do you want after poch gets sacked next season”
True. But it would grind my gears a little to have developed them a manager that might stick.
Can we add winks as a player manager please? 
I think getting them back into the CL consistently would buy him 4 years at least. Don't think after their long wander in the wilderness they'd chick out some consistency, honestly.

So weird... That picture feels so old, but also like the start of the modern era for us.
Was so gutted when he left. Thought he was mustard and yet it took years for the spoiled united lot to appreciate what they had in him............ w
s(Same as Berba.... He was just another player to them whereas for us he felt like the second coming.)

He'd never commit long term.
