Whether in the coming hours or in the coming days, Mauricio Pochettino is expected to become the new manager of Manchester United.
The Argentine coach may very well be the one at the helm of the “Red Devils” for the big derby against Liverpool on the 22nd of this month.
The former Chelsea and Tottenham coach appears ready to return to England and the Premier League, although the country’s soccer hasn’t exactly gone over well with him.
Obviously, everyone acknowledges his patience and the work he put in with the “Spurs,” turning the club into a title contender without the slightest financial backing to improve the roster, but… all in all, next to his titles, there’s a zero.
Nor had he managed to win a title during his early years at Southampton, nor with Tottenham during a five-year tenure that included a Champions League final appearance and a heartbreaking finish in the 2016 league title race, and at Chelsea, he finished in sixth place, lost a League Cup final, and spent just one season with the club.
