Managerial Thread - 21/22 and 22/23 Seasons - Tottenham Hotlol

ZZ to PSG and Poch to United is looking more possible per the minute.
Also worth thinking of Mbappe's stance if ZZ joins.

PSG takes that as an upgrade, right? Zidane seems to be built for what they need as a manager.

Pochettino probably isn't built for egos like Zidane for sure. He's a better manager though, so not sure it's a clear cut upgrade.

Poch’s career choices are worse than Ascacibar’s

I agree that Pochettino isn’t a big ego guy, which makes him presumably going to Man Utd even more weird. Not that he won’t have the money to give them a facelift.

I don't know if United's (big) issue is egos, though. He'll be less of a babysitter at United than he has to be at PSG.

I wonder how he will manage Ronaldo's ego.

There is a ton of ego in that room. Ronaldo, Bruno, Pogba. Probably others. United’s biggest strength is they have these stars that can win a game With their eyes closed. Is that kind of ego toxic? Maybe? But it’s certainly there and something the next manager is going to have to deal with. These aren’t Ferguson teams

The only real egos at United are Pogba and Ronaldo. Pogba is currently injured (again) and is gone in the summer, if not January.

Ronaldo is gone in 18 months, but if Utd don't qualify for the CL next year he'll want to be gone in the summer too.

 

[Chimaera]

My question is more would United actually give him the keys to completely rework everything?

There's a lot of contract / player that would need to be culled to get to what he wants to do. Additionally, it would be interesting in who is picking the parts. Is he going to get complete control? If he isn't, who is deciding what players are bought and sold.

 

[Chimaera]

This is also interesting

Manchester United in talks with Ernesto Valverde over interim manager’s job


The craziest line in that article (if you can call it that) is that he actually cares how to manage Ronaldo.

ANYONE coming in should be ready to just flog him off.

Bruno is very clearly a huge ego. I mean to even become a high level pro athlete you have an ego in some way, shape, or form.

 

[Chimaera]

Yeah, I don't buy that there's only two egos at United.

There's two massive ones. But there's also a number of other players who have significant personalities that would have to be managed. De Gea, Maguire, Rashford, and a few others are at least personalities that should be considered in whomever is coming in.

Anyone coming in has to make a significant call on a number of players who are experienced internationals, or at minimum, big ticket, big salary players, and how to figure whether or not if they fit in the plans.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Valverde will be pragmatic and have them pinching above their weight level. Just don’t expect wowness

They've wanted ZZ for a while yes. Poch was seen as the best option available then.

not sure if this has been posted. Seems vague tbh

So we know he likes Paris I guess.

What until he tastes manchester food… he probably going there to get fit again

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

If Zidane goes to PSG, I'll be watching every game between PSG and Marseille.

That's a must see regardless.

Go to Indian joints! No matter who comes at United they can't do anything worthwhile, not with that midfield. The midfielders who can defend can't attack and viceversa.
