United should have gone for a huge name , tasked with re- setting the club when Fergie left. If Poch gets the job, he needs to be given plenty of time and sensible targets.

Is his brother playing for them ? I last read he was at Eastleigh.

Pleased for Winchester City.

Poch will fall out with Wilcox unless he’s given a free rein there.

Man U would be better off joining with Man City one spends £1bn on players the other in debt by £1bn from spending on players who aren't very good. New actually mentioned Potch coached at Saints normally managers and players have thier time at Saints erased.

All part of Wilcox's plan to bring in Russ. Poch is just him ticking off the ex-Saints manager box. 🙂

Bet he is relieved. Nice pay off, still loved by Utd fans. Poch is a good appointment but plenty of decent managers have failed there.

Poch must have had guarantees about his areas of control esp after his Spurs exit ? Once again only time will tell ….

Dépends how he goes about sorting out their defence and défensive midfield.

Yoro and Heaven aren't good enough, Maguire is a dick and Martinez is a nutjob. DM is non existant really.

Big job..

Can’t see Poch being answerable to Wilcox or accepting him in charge of recruitment.
 

If Ratcliffe was looking for a reset he should be showing Wilcox the door, and bringing in someone his manager can work with. What’s Paul Mitchell up to these days ? (Seem to recall he left a couple of clubs under a cloud so perhaps not still the shooting star that he once was).

Very poor handling of events by Utd. Although this was predictable last season even , Carrick has acted with a degree of dignity throughout. But poor sod was publicity undermined by players beneath him, and had Wilcox and another pulling strings elsewhere.

Sage also now gone at Palace.

Yes, very poor, as was their recruitment this summer. Baleba and Tielmans cost far more than their worth . Carrick apparently wanted Rogers and Anderson. Mind you on some of his showings at City,Anderson isn't the answer to many questions. Too slow.
