Yeah, def agree with that. Nationality means nothing. Just how I believe we don't need to overpay for Italian talent just because it's Italian.

Just wanted to do a quick HYPOTHETICAL poll. If you were forced to choose between the following managers to coach us next season, who would you choose:

1. Spalletti, with say 50m extra to spend in the transfer market
2. Conte
3. Allegri
4. Pochettino
5. Sarri
6. Tuchel
7. Mourinho

Who would you choose, please reply with an answer or thank a post with your preferred choice. Its quite possible this is the decision facing Marotta now, give or take a name, so just doing a temperature check at FIF.

This isn't even a competition. Pochettino no doubt about it. The man completely transformed Spurs from the ground up. He's also a very likable guy.

I don't think he's even available I could see him either sticking with Spurs or maybe going to top club since he's very in demand.


If we take Pochettino out of this it would make the choice a lot more difficult.

1) Spalletti just lost it. It doesn't matter who the players are with him, he's got a losing mentality.
2, 3) I'd personally veto Conte and Allegri. Also Conte's history of rage-quitting is not promising at all especially at Inter where he'll face a lot more criticism and backlash than he ever did at Juve.
5) I'm not sure if Sarri could implement his style here. He seems quite set in his ways and it looks like after that Napoli season teams have figured him out.
6) Tuchel is quite meh and hasn't achieved much. I'm not counting PSG's title win an achievement personally since it's a given.

Out of those the choice is really difficult. I wonder why you didn't put Mourinho in the list as well since he's available. I'd probably go with him, yeah he's not been super great lately but at least he still won something.

Anyway out of that list excluding Pochettino I'll go with Sarri if we give him money to buy the players he wants for his system.

I meant that I wanted rockball to see your post.

And I was being completely sarcastic because people are saying Italian managers cannot win CL so we should stay away. If we base our selection on how well a nationality does in CL, then we wouldn't even consider Pocchettino because Argetine coaches are terrible in CL haha.

Agree with this, nationality has no role here.

I don't think I implied anything to the contrary elsewhere. Only point I made was that data sometimes isn't relevant, using the Di Matteo example.

Mourinho. He's the only great choice from the lot.


Spalletti needs an extra 150m, 50m won't cut it.
Il Conte Ladro can fuck off.
Allegri is not even better than Conte.
Pochettino would be a decent choice but he's not giving me the vibe of a tactical genius, he doesn't have Serie A experience at any level and he just seems like an overhyped 2008 Spalletti.
Sarri is not the answer, at least not for Inter.
Tuchel also has no Serie A exposure and I doubt he brings anything that we need. Seems incompatible to Inter and Serie A.


Pochettino would be #2 if only we are patient enough to give him the necessary time to adjust to the league, see how the club works and see whether he can live up to this demanding environment. People shouldn't be comfortable with giving an overachiever of teams with zero pressure (Espanyol, Southampton & Tottenham) a demanding job. It usually backfires. No one doubts his managerial ability, but the transition from the laissez faire environment of the Premier League and especially a club like Tottenham where there is no demand from the ownership for any sort of success to Inter where you get booed for misplacing a pass after conceding a goal is completely unaccounted for.

And once again, the only right answer here is Mourinho.
The man who won the Tripleta, the man who resurrected Real Madrid, the man who got Manchester United winning again only to be thrown away because of "football style" (which they knew was incompatible with their club to begin with) and clash with snowflake generation players.

I'd seriously give Laurent Blanc a go before Sarri or Allegri and I don't even rate him that high. And Conte is a big no no obviously.

Pochettino. I would only pick Simeone and Klopp over him. From the realistic options, i would go for Sarri. Even though i rate Conte as a coach, he brings too much drama with him and i can't stand watching Inter play with a back 3. Allegri is as good as his squad. He is never going to overachieve and we certainly need someone who can do that. Tuchel had a bad relationship both with players and the board in his last two teams. As for Mourinho, it would be best for both sides if he never returns. Lets not ruin our memories from the treble season.

I wanted Blanc back in 2017 but i am not so sure now. He has stayed for far too long away from coaching and i don't think he would be worth the cost.

I actually strongly agree with grandfather brehme in p̶e̶n̶c̶i̶l̶p̶a̶l̶ principle - I am already uncomfortable as it is with Marotta in charge. And I do NOT want Conte (or Allegri for that matter) because of their filthy juve past. That said, I think you're vastly downplaying/underrating their competence as managers.

Why? What has Tuchel ever done that would imply that he'd succeed here?

Is Mourinho really the man who got Man U winning again? From what I recall he won his first trophy in his first game there which was the Community Shield. But for them to evenbolsy that, wouldn't they have had to win the FA Cup with their previous coach? I doubt he was the one who got them to start winning again. Even then he had a pretty disappointing time there. He lost to Sevilla in the CL, was not very good in the league this season, etc. He also seems to have lost the ability to motivate players. He lost dressing rooms at each of his last 3 clubs.He won the league at Real Madrid which was good but thet won the CL as soon as he left and Ancelotti took over

Mou's tenure at United was a failure. They had a net spending of nearly 400m and they were and are miles away from fighting CL and EPL!

How about Bayern’s coach just raped 5-1 and won the German league. Maybe the cup next week and is getting fired

Don’t think he will want a 9 million contract

Kovac is nothing special. It's a miracle he hasn't been fired yet. Bayern had been very inconsistent this season. They won the title thanks to Dortmund bottling it in the second round.

Spalletti would need triple the amount of money to have success here. Even then, I'd have my doubts. He's just not a winner and I think everyone, players and fans are aware of it by now.

I'd say Mourinho though his spell with United casts some doubt on his current abilities.
