Tuchel falls out with clubs everywhere he goes. Will be Jose and Conte all over again but with better football for the first 6-12 months.

As far as I know Touchel is not in our conversation.
Good

Tuchel is very very intelligent. Tactically one of the best.

BUT

He has a very abrasive/confrontational attitude. He doesn't like something he tells people.

I know someone who worked with him at PSG and they said he was brilliant on the training ground/tactically but they didn't seem very forthcoming about him as a person/collegaue.

Connecting the dots, his time at all of Dortmund, PSG and Chelsea tells me that he may rub people up the wrong way and it gets sour quick.

Just like Conte and Jose, he doesnt stay in these jobs long.

Find someone who wants to build something special.

I was at the ground and didn't see the kane sub situation. Was that genuinely a thing? Media haven't picked up on it

Me too. I've seen a video of the discussion now and I don't know how anyone can tell. There's Mason shrugging his shoulders at whatever instruction Kane has been given. If people are basing it on this clip then I think there is a lot of guessing going on.

What's the story here?

Tuchel is a good manager, I think some are being a little clouded because of the ex Chelsea thing in that respect. He has a solid system thats more attacking then our previous and his appointment wouldn't be the worst in the world. I remember when he went to Chelsea he managed to changes things very quickly.

But for me it just doesn't feel like a good fit. I've never been that big of a fan of his and i think tactically he's another that needs specific players. Although he is different he seems like another version of the same thing. I just don't see it working. Also Tuchel and Levy just seems like a match made in hell.

Im probably a little biased because I remember him running up and down the side lines look like an idiot and in general i've never really liked his manor. And yes, three ex Chelsea managers in a row, bar a brief affair with Nuno, would leave a bad taste in my mouth. But that doesn't stop me appreciating he is a good manager.

Really tho, although I don't find his tactics completely to my taste i probably don't have a real reason not to want him. But that doesn't stop me hoping we get someone else. As I've said, I really would like a change of thinking and Tuchel wouldn't be that.

Who is we? Don't you mean YOU?
So after the noncommittal / no my fault crap that Conte has been trotting out, you think it would be a good idea to appoint a manager who just got sacked for doing the exact same thing at Chelsea? Madness.

The news that it won't be Poch has made me realise how much I want it to be Poch :cry:

That wasn't the actual info. Some anti Levy chanting on saturday (or fear of it) should change this bit

It won’t be Poch for various reasons unless Levy is on the ropes and needs a way out. We are a long way from that.

The fact Levy isn't on the ropes now says a lot about the clubs priorities.

It's genuinely unbelievable that he isn't on the ropes

I don't see the fanbase getting behind a Tuchel appointment at all.

Poch makes the only logical sense for numerous reasons.

Yeah I absolutely love Keane. People call him a dinosaur but I disagree entirely, the guy simply can't comprehend the notion of players needing external validation because he was so intrinsically motivated that he had a ridiculously high standard of work ethic and to your point, he demanded it of his teammates. If there was one mistake of Fergie's, I've always been disappointed how he handled the Keane situation, both during and after.
I don't doubt his value to Fergie, but I cannot stand the way he's lauded as one of the greats of the game. He was a technically proficient Vinny Jones. A thug and a bully. Nobody should ever forget what he did to Haaland. That was disgusting; the sort or premeditated thuggery that would get you locked up if it hadn't have happened on a football pitch.

A technically proficient Vinny Jones?!? If we had a prime Roy Keane in our team today you would be calling him one of the best players in the world.

wonder what is ‘’on the ropes’’ for Levy. Can see very quickly the anti-Levy chants hitting like they did at the end of Nuno over the next game or two.

Yeah, whilst I will certainly concede on the point regarding that action with Haaland as it was awful, he is clearly still not appreciated for his quality on the pitch.
