Presumably biding his time for the United job.
Probably going to be a year or two before that becomes available.
Wonder if we had a word if he might come back to us for 12 months.
I’d have him back here in a heartbeat.
The players wouldn’t be allowed to take the piss out of him. |  |

Why would he come back here and what is the point of having a manager for one year only? He also got plenty of stick here for not having a plan B. I don’t think that the players are taking the p out of our manager. They are just not good enough to beat champions league level teams on a regular basis. |  | | |

Pochettino is a football addict. I’m sure he’d far rather be in the game than not.
His Plan A worked quite a lot for us; and Spurs.
Regarding short-term contracts etc, have we benefited from Hassenhutl being with us for 4 years? Other than in saving on manager redundancy costs?
He shows no sign of improving our defending, and he looks a beaten man most of the time. | |

Maybe so, but Pochettino isn’t going to come back here. We need someone who wants to be here for the right reasons and is prepared to hang around for the project. | | | |

Dunno.
I think apart from the very best managers (Klopp, Guardiola) managers go stale when they have been at a club too long, and players tire of the same message.
It even happened to Howe at Boscombe, and I rate him very highly. | |

He is a beaten man. Beaten a hell of a lot recently. |  | | |

The problem is that you could substitute "premier" for "champions" there and you could also delete "on a regular basis" as we've only won one of our last thirteen league games and that was back in the middle of April and only because of a brilliant performance from a player who's gone now.

Well that project distinctly looks like relegation, Arthur. | |
