One bad run and people are calling for Poch to go.

Wow.

Are people forgetting that he took us to a CL final a couple of months ago?

Have people forgotten that night in Amsterdam?

I can only presume you haven’t watched many of our games in the last 9 months and thus have not witnessed the drastic decline first hand. I also presume that you aren’t aware that once players ‘down tools’ so badly it is never retrievable and the managers sacking is inevitable.

Just to note for his last job:

He won trophies and finished 2nd with a pretty crap United squad.
He had issues with the exact same players that Solksjaer is having issues with
He is very often right about the players he has issues with, he's just more blunt about it all. SAF was exactly the same, but had more support from Edwards and Kenyon than anyone has ever had with Woodward (with the exception of OGS, who they seem to be backing more).

Yep he wanted rid of Pogba and Martial but the club backed the players. Soon as that happened he knew the writing was on the wall which is what he was trying to tell the fans.

We don't have Pogba's and Martials we have players who are struggling to keep the belief and drive. Eriksen certainly wants out and is a lost cause but I think an appointment like Mourinho will have some thinking we are being ambitious and will get that belief back and maybe would like to hang around afterall.

I like the idea of getting Allegri, but the biggest downside with him is that he has no Premiership experiance.

But I’m warming to the idea of Mourinho, ticks a lot of the boxes you would want in a manager.

Sean Dyche is by far the best manager in the Prem outside the big names. I know we won't appoint him, I'm not silly, but he's excellent and much stronger than Howe

The fact is Mourinho is largely hated so much because he's successful. He might be an arrogant twat but when you've won what he has you earn the right. If he was as shit, nobody would really care.

Some will still be put off by his Chelsea connections but that partly, especially the way it ended at United too, makes me even more sure he'd be the perfect fit. He'd get this team motivated, winning by hook or by crook and would want to get back at those that think he's finished.

A disaster? They finished second, equalling our best season under Poch. He also won two trophies in his first season. If that’s a disaster what is Pochs reign? Bearing in mind we are falling apart even worse than United did towards the end of Mourinhos reign.

Woodward’s PR team at work.

I don’t think we’ll get him. It will be Rafa and that will be the worst appointment we could make. His cold relationship with players will be the opposite of poch’s approach and the players will hate it.

If Poch hasn't gone already, he is not going.
Levy dont hang around with these sort of decisions, it is clear he is putting his faith in him, lets hope he can turn it round.

I don't know why Howe has become Marmite all of a sudden by Dyche is a good shout as well. Seems to get the best out of not-a-lot.

If our aim is to be part of Europe's elite then we need a manager who doesn't just gets the best out of not a lot the club needs to set it's sights higher.

Mourinho is a winner, that is true. He has done it again and again in the past.
Though I think a lot of people are hugely overstating the job he did at Utd. He took a team that won the FA cup and finished 5th the season before to a team that won 2 cups and finished 6th in his first season. Then he spent a lot of money and didn’t win anything else with them at all. Nothing.
He didn’t turn around a side that were dead and buried despite how crappily they had been playing in all of our eyes. People seem to be totally blinded by the fact they won two cups the first year and totally forget about the rest of his tenure (other than ‘winning’ second place), or the season before he arrived.
So he essentially took a trophy winning side and kept them a trophy winning side while only slightly improving them. We are a totally different kettle of fish.

This I think these are the reasons people aren’t keen, and say things end in disaster with him (and it did end very badly with him and Utd).
Yes people can keep pointing out that he won two (or three, why people keep including the community shield is beyond me) trophies, but the same people saying others are arrogant for not wanting a guy who wins the trophies he has, seem to arrogantly dismiss everything else that happened while he was there and anyone else who actually wants to question anything about his tenure other than his two trophies there.

I don’t like the guy particularly, how he treats players (publicly), is with the media (or has been in the past), but I’d generally be interested to see how this break has changed him (if at all) if he were to be offered and take the role should Poch leave.

A little surprised by some of the backlash to Eddie Howe. I think he’d be a good ‘project’ manager and can obviously see why he’d appeal to Levy.

He’s implemented a clear style at Bournemouth, he’s a good man manager and coach. Bournemouth tend to go on a bit of a sticky patch every year and he continuously manages to turn it around.

Not saying he’d be the answer if Pochettino goes, or that he’d be my numero uno choice, but I’d much rather him than someone like Farke.

We can do much better than Eddie Howe
