Unfortunately Pochettino is another in the long list of bad hires by Manchester United since 2013. He’s failed at two other big clubs, even failed to win the league with PSG. I do like the way the USMNT played under him but I just don’t think he’s cut out for the United job.
@kuta_isi@433gary No I'm not wrong, you are. This was the table when Poch was hired, he then drew his first game vs Saint Etienne and fell to 3 points behind.
@ZDustu32927@0___0nat@MchaelSNM1 Cruyff is way better than Ronaldo and he also does not even receive GOAT claims anyway. Even in his own era very few labelled him as such, Pele was still fresh in their memory and clearly superior.
Watching him for the piece a while back changed a lot for me bc I realized that for as great as he is, the general public's memory of his skillset is WILDLY inaccurate
Guys talk about him as this pacy 1v1 demon when that was a genuine weakness of his, nostalgia is a drug
@MikeWazowski_gg The pool gets more limited as the years go by but I still think there were better options than Poch. I wouldn't approve of hiring Conte but I think he'd take the job and he's obviously a good manager for example.
@433gary Yeah I have no idea what you're talking about. Poch has won 4 times in 25 games vs Pep. The best records against Pep belong to Jurgen Klopp, Carlo Ancelotti and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Almost everything you've said in this entire exchange has been factually incorrect.
@433gary Maresca and Tuchel are shit and Tuchel still did 10x better than Poch did at PSG that’s the issue, I don’t even know what you’re talking about. You literally have an alternate version of history that you refer to.
@TheFUTSBC@RealChiCho1 They did it 3 times actually. Ten Hag easily should’ve been sacked, bailed on him a few months into the season, then they did the same with Amorim the year after, then they decided to back Carrick, give him fuck all in the window and then sack him a few months into the season.
@433gary Tuchel damage? He literally was 1 game off winning the quadruple a few months prior to getting the sack. You’re living in a different world to everyone else. Are you gonna rectify the absurd statements that Poch was actually 15 pts behind Lille when he got hired and won a treble?
@433gary Almost everything you said is wrong?
They were 1 point behind Lyon who were top.
He had nothing to do with convincing Messi and Messi literally said he didn’t like his setup.
He never won a treble, in fact he only won 1 trophy with Messi which was the 21/22 league title.
It’s also a signal of the lack of ambition of the football club. Binned by PSG, binned by Chelsea and was coaching a third rate national team. That’s the guy we’re hiring for one of the 5 biggest jobs in world football?
@PoetGooner Yeah I agree. He wasn’t slow at all but the guys talking as if his reputation is comparable to Mbappé’s. No one thought of pace when they thought of Ronaldinho,
He was never known for his pace but 1v1s were a major strength of Ronaldinho of course, somehow managed to be completely wrong in 2 different ways in 1 sentence.
