I just look at how they did in the CL before he took over and how they did after and to be honest afterwards they didn't look such a good side in the CL. He came 3rd in his last season, 3rd in a league with basically 2 teams is pretty poor, Dortmund player wise we head and shoulders above everyone bar Bayern.Originally Posted by Vieira
bit harsh Zim. He played some excellent football and would have a domestic title under his belt were it not for Pep showing up in Germany. Le Grove has done a good piece on why Tuchel and his ideas would be exciting. Take a look.
If we're after him, we're aiming pretty low IMO, they didn't sack him for no reason, I remember seeing Dortmund and thinking they looked very beatable compared to the side they were, even Liverpool knocked them out after needing 3 goals twice in a game in the Europa, pretty poor show IMO, remember thinking how brittle Dortmund looked compard to before he took over. Is this really the kind guy we can attract now, a 2nd rate manager with no real record of success? If so we're in big trouble.
I'm not interested in any manager that can't build a team capable of defending, you'll never win anything of note without a good disciplined defence, top teams are built from the back.
