The new, new manager thread - Pt 3

[LutonSpurs]

The Times are saying 24 hours till he is appointed. BBC saying we in advanced talks with him. This is really gathering pace.

 

[Papercut]

Think Poch is coming here. No idea where De Boer is off to but I could imagine somewhere like Monaco, or Germany, Italy or Spain.

He could very well be off to Galatasaray IMO. Reasons? Mancini has been poor and not too popular so he's likely to be off. Sneider influence? Be it for a short period, he actually played for Gala. I can see it happening.

FdB = 6/1, Poch = 1/10.

BBC running with Poch now too as their second main story, and they tend to check their sources: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/27579306

They do?

Pretty sure BBC mentioned Blanc will be our new manager back in 2012

FDB to Milan seems to be a strong rumour

FDB to Milan seems to be a strong rumour

Go back to my post. FDB is a done deal.

 

[LutonSpurs]

In the science of accepting media reports as gospel, it is accepted that multiple weak sources can be taken as revelation when they all say the same **** with conviction at the same time. Well that's my method on it.

Really? Dag. Sort of makes sense. I believe the fans were calling for Seedorf's head towards the end of the season.

Too much smoke for it to be just a smokescreen. This is a full blown Pochettino fire now.

can't see FdB going to Southampton

There's nothing for it, we'll have to replace it with Steff's Fat Sam avatar.

 

[ShelfLife]

Or this one

Team bonding trips should be fun.

Also, I have only just noticed that he bears a passing resemblance to Steven Gerrard.

I'm seeing Michael mcintyre in that pic

 

[Gutter Boy]

Times reporting Poch has signed a 3 year deal.

i was thinking a recently promoted former manager :-"

It's a smokescreen. Hertyid has come out and said FDB is a done deal.

Here's the first paragraph. Still a few ifs and buts but they sound fairly confident.

Tottenham Hotspur are expected to name Mauricio Pochettino as their new head coach in the next 24 hours after virtually agreeing a three-year contract with him.
Pochettino hopes to take Jay Rodriguez with him to north London, although the deal is complicated by the striker, who scored 15 league goals this season, having a knee injury that will sideline him until October...

Not sure he'll get a bigger job without first proving himself in a more respected league. The Southampton job for a year or two could be the perfect stepping stone for him to move on to a La Liga or EPL big boy.
