Luis Enrique finished 7th at Roma.
He finished 9th with Celta Vigo and was appointed Barcelona manager the following season. He went on to win the treble in his debut season.
Carlo Ancelotti finished 10th with Everton before returning to Real Madrid.
Unai Emery lost the Europa League final to Chelsea, was sacked, then went on to win Europa League trophies with Villarreal and Aston Villa.
Vincent Kompany got Burnley promoted to the Premier League, only to suffer relegation in the same season. He's now Bayern Munich's head coach and doing great things.
Just like players, managers need the right environment to thrive. Context matters. A manager's struggles at one club don't automatically define what he's capable of achieving elsewhere.
imagine if poch came and was like lowkey like randomly world class and like like we made it to CL KOs and stuff and like ngl like what if we like sly made it to the final innit and LOWKEY like won CL lol
How about you copy that fucking GIF link, roll it into a tiny little ball, shove it so far up your rancid arse that your ancestors have to dig through three generations of bullshit to retrieve it
🚨 🗣️ @David_Ornstein on Mauricio Pochettino: “Manchester United is the APPLE of Mauricio Pochettino's eye. He will ADAPT to what they've got set up."
“He will take to it with vigour that you would imagine is in keeping with it being almost the culmination of his career to date…” [@TOTDevils via @SimplyUtd]
🚨🗣️ @David_Ornstein on Mauricio Pochettino:
"When ten Hag’s job was on the line in 2024, United spoke to Pochettino (among others: Tuchel, Amorim, De Zerbi, Thomas Frank, Marco Silva, McKenna). I didn’t hear the best feedback from how it went. I was told they were a little underwhelmed - the feedback wasn’t the best in their eyes regarding his coaching at the time, his hunger, his work rate, etc. They ended up taking Tuchel and De Zerbi to the last two and ultimately gave ten Hag a new contract.
There have been a number of occasions of this Pochettino consideration. It’s quite remarkable to think they could have taken him for free this summer (his contract was expiring after the World Cup). They had a vacancy because Carrick was only interim; they felt Carrick could earn the permanent job. They clearly didn’t think Pochettino was the man then.
If they turn to him now they will have to pay around $10M for his release clause with the US men’s national team, a few million more for staff, then his salary, plus the cost of removing Carrick and his staff. A very expensive decision not to go with him in the summer if they go with him now."
