It\u2019s been quite a long spell since there\u2019s been news about one certain hot guru of football managers who\u2019s mantra has been chanted even since Sir Alex Ferguson\u2019s heydays as the impresario extraordinaire.<\/p>\n
Mauricio Pochettino has been flying surreptitiously low on the radar since he was blipped out of the Tottenham scene and was subsequently replaced by an eccentric named Mourinho who\u2019s another individual who\u2019s another long yarn in itself.<\/p>\n
Well, this article is about the Argentine so we\u2019ll just stick to the script and not run amok over the other zany dude. The Argentine has been quietly tipped by former Toon captain Mick Martin for the Newcastle United job, according to The Express, which kind of suggests that there should perhaps be a rather large asterisk next to the claim.<\/p>\n
Whichever way one chooses to look at it, there\u2019s no doubt that a revitalized Premier League side with an audaciously revamped Magpies fresh on the horizon will be a great\u00a0resurrection opportunity for the Argentine, perhaps even a new piece de resistance for the bloke that many even today still hail as one of the most brilliant strategists ever. And not least an opening that a particular Daniel Levy will probably see as an excellent opportunity to gladly offload onto someone else\u2019s payroll.<\/p>\n
Now, be it news or voracious rumour, it\u2019s actually timely for Poch because he would be really hard-pressed to get a better offer than this in these thinly stretched coronavirus-implosive times, or even in this lifetime for that matter. Detractors, indeed there are, would coldly omit all the selective memory data about the good he\u2019s done from Tottenham fans, leaving only the cold reality that he\u2019s won nothing since landing in England. Some even berate the fact that under the category listed under \u2018Honours\u2019, the man has been wanting.<\/p>\n
At a fresh and anxious Newcastle all wonderfully geared up anew and rebooted for a massive relaunch by the Saudis – if at all this takeover finally materialises \u2013 this could be the closest Poch could get to relaunch his own career as the man is not getting any younger.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
