Its professional, job done stuff. Win against them and CSKA at home and we are set.
The problem is, I'm unsure if Wembley actually counts as 'home'.

Needs to get some lessons to adapt to Europe. He is good for the EPL but how long until Levy's desire for progress in Europe gets him.
So if Poch doesn't win the CL in 2-3 years he's a goner, eh?For the first few years, Levy wont be bothered. But if the team becomes a CL regular and Poch doesnt improve in Europe, well ..

Tsk tsk...
Depends on a lot of things. Poch reminds me at the moment of Mancini during his first stint with Inter as manager - Solid in Serie A, Average in Europe. Perhaps he needs a stronger squad and another playmaker. If so, then the Isco rumours are credible.

A point Away from home against a German team without two of our best players is hardly a cause for complaint.
Sorry @afsoc4life but I think you are getting way ahead of yourself here. So much can happen in 2-3 years that it's not really worth worrying about what will happen then. We are back in the CL for the first time in ages, and only second time in its current format. The guy has just signed a new contract! So long as we are regularly competing in the CL, then I'm 99% sure that that will be enough for Levy. Levy will only get rid of Poch when the team stagnates and is not successful.
To make comparisons with Mancini I just find strange as IIRC, he bought a lot of established stars rather than doing it in the manner that Poch has done.
I will wait and see. The comparison with Mancini is based on performance both local and continental and not squad build.
But Mancini was managing a side that excelled at club level because of a weak league hence why they were poor in Europe. We're doing well in the League and solid in Europe
Serie A wasnt poor then. There were tough teams. Before Mancini, Inter had been struggling to win the league. We are not solid in Europe.
We're second in a tough group .... Surely that's solid
Sorry but who was decent in Italy at the time?? For me that's been a poor league for about 15 years

Juventus, Milan, Roma, Fiorentina, Udinese and Inter
