Good that Ten Hag has signed for United already... Poch can go on holiday and relax :) ... no top Premier League teams need new managers at the moment.

Any chance he can come in and manage the U23’s until Conte leaves in a few years??

There were rumors recently of Sevilla sacking Lopetegui recently. I think he'd be perfect for them. Also saw rumors linking him to the Bilbao job which could be interesting.

He should just take the next PL job that he’s offered. Doesn’t matter who it is. He needs to show he can do a job in this league again. Whether his ego would let him do that if it isn’t at a top 4/5 club I’m not so sure.
Disagree. It's no shame at all not to be exceptional at PSG as other posters have said

They pushed out Tuchel and he went to Chelsea and the rest is history

He will know that the RM job will come up eventually (Ancelloti is getting on) and he will be one of the favourites. No disrespect to Everton or Villa but he is well above their level and I don't think he'd want to deal with losing his best players every summer

I hope he goes nowhere near the England job (and I don't think he'd be interested at all). Poisoned chalice of poisoned chalices. He is too nice a guy to deserve the sh*t that the press would inevitably give him if he didn't win the World Cup at the first attempt

On a stadium tour for a laugh?

i know it sounds crazy but he's mr espanyol and was very close to going to Barca. I know from various people who know he's family how much they've love it in north London. Just wouldn't put it past him if he's willing to go to Barca

No he wasn't.

Everton or B. Dortmund next perhaps, if their coaches get sacked. Feels inevitable for Lampard.

No.
That will be PSG as they sacked him.
It certainly has been reported that way.
But he is probably on a year's gardening leave, and PSG will be paying his salary.

If PSG have managed to wiggle out of the one year extension, or part of it, then Pochettino's contract with spurs is still valid - until summer 2023, and we would still be obliged to pick up his salary until he found a new job.
That's my understanding.

PS For context, we heavily subsidise Mourinho's salary all next season.
Oh and all of Nuno's salary next season.

Wow ridiculous if we have to continue paying Poch after he's been at another club. You'd think he's theirs to compensate.
If that's to happen then he might as well move back in and coach our U23.

The most drawn out sacking I have ever witnessed :LOL:

Poch deserves better though, PSG is a shit show

Think Ancelotti will have 1 more year at Madrid and then Poch will take over next season.

He'll have a team full of young hungry players to build around.
