IMO Poch best fits the mould of what a successful Manchester Uniter manager could look like. Understands the importance of the youth team, plays a more attacking and attractive style, and is good with the media/fanbase.
Managers are more than coaches. Yes. The Manchester United job is a Poison Pill.

Its not the manager's fault. I mean, OGS is limited in what he can do and I dont think he is entirely to blame but its an organizational issue.

Coaching, recruitment...jettisoning dead weight, its an entire organizational process.

United fans are pissed. I understand that. I lived through the Hicks and Gillette years at Liverpool. I get it. The biggest problem for United fans at the moment is that their team is pretty mediocre at the moment BUT.....they still make money. So nobody cares. Well...nobody who matters anyways.

Except the 'actual fans' which I put in quotations because there arent any 'Actual' United fans like there arent any actual City, 'Real Madrid or Barca' fans. They're not fans of the team they're just fans of winning.
