I think it died the moment an unfit kane was picked ahead of lucas in that champions league final. The players clearly had an issue with that. Getting pumped by bayern and then showing no fight and getting dumped out of the league cup by league 2 opposition it was clearly over. I think the opportunity to come back to us was there and he wanted it but Levy didn't offer it so I hold no grudge against him going to Chelsea. Despite not having a trophy people around the 35-40 age like myself have never had such a good spell with such a good side for that long before. We were almost there under him never forget that.
In fairness that was a no win situation ( unless we won the cup).
Start moura and lose: you should have started Kane.

Poch was good but he messed up on the big night.

He was too much of a pussy. He should simply have let Lucas play. If it meant drop Kane, then so be it. Kane was overweight and hadn't prepared himself for months. His season was over. Then he 'recovered' just before the final. That reduced our chances significantly.

We can't have a pussy as a manager who don't have the balls to drop the big player, even when he's fat, injured, and completely out of shape.

Poch is the one who didn't want to work with a DOF.
Yep, felt he was above such things.

Poch was a great era when it was great.
It was OK, great would have been winning stuff - the early 80s were a great era.

Everyone needs to move on.
100% agree

We should be focused on finding the next Poch.
One that wins stuff while playing great football.
