Next Manager Speculation/Hopes

[brontebilly]

Looks like Chelsea about to appoint Potter - smart appointment all round. So he's off the table for the Villa job if we find ourselves seeking a new manager shortly

We will be stuck between Poch and Tuchel 😃

I do wonder if Poch is after something he can get his teeth into, rather than one of the 'star vehicle' clubs, somewhere where he'll get the chance to shape the team properly. If that were the case, we'd be just up his street.

given where we've been and currently are we'd be nuts not to consider either if they showed a legitmate interest. Tuchel's Dortmund success got him to PSG. I know Poch didn't actually win a trophy at Spurs but I'd accept that level of failure at Villa; top 4, European cup final etc. I'd even say that for Rodgers too. Winning the FA Cup in our lifetime is something most of us are dreaming of.

Why has Pochettino’s stock fallen so much? Or should I stop listening to Talksport?

Absence divided by achievement is the calculation for all out of work managers / prospective new clubs, I reckon.  'Poch' has done good shit in the past, but has been absent for a bit.  The trick, I suspect with 'elite' managers, is timing their reintroduction to the front line.

Could we get Gasperini from Atalanta? I watch no Italian (and very little English) football, but he seems like a good sort.

I'm all for extending our scouting network but appointing managers from mythical islands under the sea might be pushing it.

They're joint top in Serie A right now..

What about the Dortmund coach ?

What about the Dortmund coach ?

He was only appointed this year (although did a caretaker stint a couple of seasons ago) and is top of the Bundesliga at the moment, I don't think he'll leave.

According to the French press, Nice are approaching Poch! FFS

If he has any interest whatsoever, now is the time to get the wallet out.

All hype and style over substance - just like Bielsa was fawned over after achieving next to fuck all in the game

Bielsa did an incredible job at Leeds
