JN is one of the best attacking managers, gets a lot out of his attackers. It will be day and night difference between him and Tuchel/Potter/Lampard.

He had Werner scoring like Halaand  that deserves an honour of itself.

He had Nkunku firing and many other players doing soo well under his management..

We want someone who can switch to anger and passion -vital at certain situations. Potter, Lampard nor Pochettino have this quality, if they get Poch so obvious they want a compliant Yes man = more mediocrity with a slightly higher win rate. No thanks.

2 real managers with different footballing ideas -- nothing wrong with that. 

No qualms having and implementing a long-term project, just pick someone players can listen to and trust for starters. It's not that hard. 😅

Whilst Poch is a good coach, you’ve hit nail on the head. A yes man.

Makes sense, even more when you consider why Enriques apparently been moved down this list of “managerial targets” we have.

really worrying if true,

I hope folks understand what the issue is: owners have zero sway with players, because they have no knowledge of the game, and can't really control players wages (contracts!). All they can do is tweak bonuses and whatnot, which can be tricky to do (counter-productive to say the least). At this level players can move on to a different club earning comparable wages on a whim.

The power is with the players... even against owners.

For the few of you that understand German: here is a in-depth analysis from Nagelsmann about his tactics and philosophy. 
What I can tell u after watching it: its 16 minutes long and he never uses one of these phrases like "we want to play attacking football" or "we want to have possession" or all this usual superficial football talk. Its pure tactics.
This guy is a fucking football and tactic nerd, knows everything about the game. And this is also his biggest weakness. He is way too intelligent and systematic for his players. Lets be honest, the majority of football players arent the sharpest knifes in the drawer. Most need clear, simple instructions without spinning their heads. And ig this is why he failed at Bayern, he basically confused his players by his complicated take on football.
So on paper, he could really transform us into a tactical monster, IF he can get his message across. Tbh I dont know if it will work, but the potential is huge.

He failed at Bayern? With what he failed?? Won vs PSG and i think would have done better vs City or finished 2cnd in German league?

In Bayern terms he did, but as u can see with Tuchel now, maybe it wasnt really his fault after all.

[gdlk 272]

You forget he lost Levandovski, which is maybe in top 3 STs in World to be replaced with Chupo-Moting..

You really need to put some effort not to win Bundesliga with Bayern, but still it was more about the personal dynamics and tabloid scandal.

[gdlk 272]

I think Salihamidjic did dirty on him to get sacked.. Also some say there was a argue between Neuer and JN

Losing Lewa, Thiago Alcântara, and Alaba really hurt them.

This squad desperately need a coach that big on position, the reason Pep teams are so in sync  and players are able to pick out passes is because he demands players to occupy their position, Nagelsmann is also big on it just like Enrique. So either would be awesome, i have given up on Enrique because Nagelsmann fit the Red Bull model which seems what Boehly and the owners are going for. If you guys recall Christoph Freund was the top choice for technical director, so they turned to RBL Christopher Vivell.

My concern is if we miss on Nagelsmann, not sure where we will go.
