Poch replacing Ole feels a bit like Mourinho replacing van Gaal ... everybody knew it was coming a long time before it did. The key difference is that I'm pretty pumped about potentially getting Poch.

I just have a hard time believing that these conversations take place that way. I mean yeah, everyone knows that Ole is on his last legs, and it's pretty clear that the writing is on the wall. At the same time though, once they're actually contacting people to take over it's a done deal or very close.

I dont OGS is doing a terrible job. Hes made some questionable decisions, and I think playing for him isnt terribly motivating, but they're not a great squad either.
They're not terrible, I'm not suggesting that, but they're not great.
Besides, he has to play most games with only 10 men when he selects Pogba and its like adding a player to the other team.
Its kind of like when Liverpool was forced to play Dejan Lovren. Hes basically not there and is always good for a goal against. Its like starting the match with 10 men and down 1-0.

Wasn't he the best player in the world? I was sure that I heard that somewhere!
OGS is doing a terrible job. That club spends ~100m a year on players, has some good young talent and they're sitting on 2 wins against Brighton and Newcastle. I guess you can look at the draw against Chelsea as a silver lining, but they're just not playing up to their potential. At some point that falls to the manager.
