It might be taken out of his hands. If the club see Potch as a very good alternative(they may do they may not) and we can only get him this summer then they might politely ask Guardiola to leave

Really??
I find that hard to believe mate....very hard.
Let’s not forget Poch has won the square root of f@@k all with spuds and has been consequently dismissed. Not exactly a track record to encourage our owners to upgrade from Pep imho

I'm not saying this is likely. Just something to think about, particularly if the board do rate Potch(which they may or may not do)

I thought he’s be here until the end of next season but I’ve a feeling he will call it a day at the end of this season, which would be disappointing, but we will get Potchitino

1. What the fck are you on about? Pep already said five billion times that he WILL see out his contract. It doesn't matter if we get knocked out of UCL in the last 16, or end up fourth in the league, he will stay to 2021, atleast. I think more and more indicates he wants to stay even longer.

2. Who is Potchitino? Could you at least try to make an effort when posting? And why would we go after Pochettino? Pep has been implementing a Cruyff-style way of playing and living football for this club and I don't believe the club owner and board will let it go. Pep will leave a legacy behind as he did with Barcelona. Going after Poch makes no sense because it would destroy everything Pep has built. This football philosophy is now part of Man City.

Calm down, dear

My point, for a bit of fun, was if the board rate Poch(which they may or may not do) and they really wanted him realistically they would need to get him this summer one way or the other and not hang on to decide if/when Guardiola decides to leave

This is a multi-billion pound corporation, not the cult of Pep. Forward planning is needed and if they’ve identified the guy they want(whoever that is) then they MIGHT decide to do things on the boards terms rather than the managers - I don’t think it’s a particularly controversial thing to say

For clarity, I would like Guardiola to be here for the next 10 years and have questions about Poch’s suitability. Personally, I think Poch will be at PSG come August

This really isn’t hard. It’s not about ‘ditching me it’s about potentially needing to plan at short notice on the whims/decisions of a manger or do things on the boards terms

I cannot believe I’ve had to go through this so many time

Personally - I can’t see it. It was just a theory, a thought, a bit of fun to think about

I don't particularly want to entertain the "ditching" Pep nonsense because it's clear Pep will be here until the day he decides to leave, but I really can't wrap my head around why people keep shouting "Poch hasn't won anything" like it matters.


You are aware that our current director of football hired our current manager for the Barcelona job - the most high pressure and important job in the world to both of them - without him even having coached a senior side?

These people don't give a single fuck about how many trophies you've got on the mantlepiece. They care about how you manage a side, how you approach the game, and Guardiola has not just praised Pochettino, but gone to almost embarrassing lengths to say it's not just lip service or flattery, he genuinely thinks he's an outstanding manager.

When Pep decides to leave, Pochettino will be right at the top of any list of replacements.

Poch is NOT good enough for city. He took Spurs as far as he could take them. We are at a much higher level than they currently are. There’s no way he’s good enough. Plus, his man management is poor. My best friend is a season ticket holder at spurs, and the general feeling I’m told among spurs fans is, he’s taken that club as far as he could take them. And wasn’t good enough to take them where they aspired to be. So that be told, not good enough for us.
 
Pep not going anywhere for at least another season ,more than long enough for Pooch to still be trophyless by then .

Firstly, that's got nothing to do with my point.

Secondly it doesn't even make sense. Pochettino took Spurs as far as he could, 3rd placed finish and CL final. He did it with a thin as shit squad and spending £29m net over 5 years. To declare so confidently that with the extra £495m net spend that City have had in the past 5 years he couldn't have done better is, frankly, stupid.

His man management was brilliant. He improved most of his players individually, and did what he had to do to keep a squad where his key players were being paid 1/2 what they were getting offered elsewhere. Sometimes that meant cutting people like Walker out, so the others would stay in line, but that's not a problem he'd have at a club that spends money.

Whether he ends up here or not, he'll get offers from all the top clubs who have managerial openings because he's shown his ability as a manager.

Pep blows smoke up every managers arse,pep had an extrodinary teacher,a vision and philosphy as well as having been brought up and playing to a high standard in his native country,that's why he was trusted with the barca job,a team he knew very well,i'm pretty sure we want to continue in our style from top to bottom and as close to the standard we have set as possible

Poch has none of the above,this is not a struggling side that we need to take a chance on a trophyless manager,i'm scared how people think poch would do,5yrs in the prem and not even a cup,saying he has prem experience sounds great till you see how often his team bottle it,he also shows zero ability to juggle 4 comps

Spurs have decent players,maureen will win them something
