Not worried.
It would be a huge risk for Poch to take the job and he could end up undoing a lot of the great things he's done so far.
Imagine if he went to Madrid and it didn't work out? Fired in an instant.
They'd even sack him if he was unable to recreate the successes of Zidane, which is very likely considering all things. Madrid fans will demand the league at the very least - you know what they are like.
Would Poch want to run the risk of being fired by Madrid before he's finished the job with us or won any trophies. It could have seriously damaging consequences for him. And I think he's smart enough to know that.
It would be much much better for Poch to walk into that job having won a league title or CL title previously as he will always have that on his resume, therefore if it didn't work out for him there he'd have numerous clubs queuing up for him. Whereas if he was to fail other big clubs may think he's very good coach but not a 'winner'.
Not saying he isn't just can see the huge risk he would expose himself to.

Fair enough. Maybe hindsight is 20/20 but that seemed remarkably optimistic.

Conte looks like he will be out of a job soon.

What a load of shit. That’s completely made up. How would they know there’s such an agreement. It’s a figure of their imagination.

We're only hours in, this is going to continue nonstop until the matter is settled one way or another. Madrid uses relentless media campaigns to unsettle their targets, it's the same thing that happened with Modric, Bale, and every other player they've ever wanted.

No way in a million years would Levy put anything in an agreement that would in anyway be to the potential detriment of the club. I am not ITK and I guarantee you that there is no informal agreement.

The spanish media is pretty quiet on it, its the Marca that doing it. Namely Madrid's mouthpiece. It indicates they do want him.
Also Paella is really a Valencian delicacy and is not something typical of Madrid or Spain. I think Spanish Omelette fuckers, or Tortilla de Patatas fuckers, would be a much more authentic and cultural conscious insult.

I just hope Poch is not going to use this as leverage to get Zaha....

Well according to article they claim a Poch source said there is a informal agreement. Jack is a very good journalist who has broken lot of good exclusives... so I wouldn’t poo poo it yet. It may come down to how much bad Madrid want him to deal with Levy.

This is what’s worrying me, the silence is deafening. If Poch is true to his word I am sure he will stay with no real issue, my problem is this is Real we are talking about, he is Espanyol through and through and would relish the chance to put Barca back down the league. But then again Madrid is going to be a complete rebuild in the next 2-3 years which won’t be easy... to conclude I have no idea what to think. We need something from Poch or the club.

Looking at what? You don't think there was any cost involved with Pochettino ending his contract with Southampton?
Got it.
