That would be a nice change - they have a long history of scuttling our plans so it's nice to put one over on them for a change, although I wouldn't put it past them to go after Poch.
16.00 GMT: Former Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino is holding off on a deal with Real Madrid, in case Manchester United or Manchester City come knocking at the end of the season, according to The Sun. Rumors, but interesting Poch would rate City or United higher than Madrid. Maybe easier with his family settled in England to stay, or maybe Madrid is too much drama.
It is the Sun, mind. They speculate on the weather... In any event, he will have to wait to the summer as his release terms have been Levy-proofed. Anyone who wants to sign him during the season will have to negotiate with Uncle Danny AND Poch would have to forfait the 12.5 million pounds of his severance.
