Popular Post Delphouneso Posted October 20, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 20, 2022 People in here now saying we shouldn't have sold Trez and El Ghazi is just as mental as people defending Gerrard. It was stupid to get rid of Bertie and not replace him but we might be able to recall him anyway if a new coach wants him in the squad. And in the unlikely scenario it does end up being Poch this squad probably suits him anyway. At Spurs he mostly played either a 3-4-2-1 (with two 10s) or a narrow 4-2-3-1 with non-traditional wide players like Eriksen and Alli. Difference is he still knows how to use all of the pitch. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could always go back in for Sarr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After messing it up at PSG, he is not getting a job at a top club. That he isn’t here, means one of two things: We aren’t looking for a replacement. (Most likely) We are looking elsewhere, maybe some other ex-Liverpool hero’s of Purslow, like Torres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duke313 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 I think getting Pochettino all hinges on the Juventus job if/when the y sack Allegri. They are rumoured to want Conte back, if he left Spurs I think Poch would be for Spurs. If Conte stays at Spurs, Poch will be one of the favs for the Juve job. But he has stiff competition there, Zidane and Tuchel are better options for them, I think. If he wants to return to the PL, we are his best option currently.

Allegedly Poch still lives in London so he’s probably prefer a job in London although he did go to PSG. However Conte leaves jobs after a max of 2/3 seasons. He is a Juve legend so it is a strong possibility that he’d leave to go there end of this season if he can’t lead the Spuds to the league title.

Exactly, the people on one side of the spectrum, are saying people on the other side are " blind ", " deluded " or have " lost it " etc , yet don't realise they, themselves are coming out with things equally as ridiculous, just from a different angle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 I want a manager who is eager to join Villa. If Pochettino isn't eager to join, move on. The longer we dangle in the wind, the worse it looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure, on the radio they said he’s currently enjoying life in France I think they said. He may still have a house over here but apparently he’s living overseas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want somebody whose elite and can see the “vision” of the project and buys into it. I know semantics but for us to get to the next level, we have to get people that others think are out of our reach imo. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d take Poch leaving us in two years for something better. We’ll be in a better place when he does. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
