Fans think Mauricio Pochettino could soon join Manchester United after Tottenham’s Champions League thrashing by Bayern Munich.
Pochettino saw his side slump to a heavy 7-2 loss at home by Bayern with four goals by former Arsenal ace Serge Gnabry, a brace by Robert Lewandowski and a strike by Joshua Kimmich.
Spurs suffered the biggest ever margin of defeat by an English team at home in European competition and this embarrassing loss piled up on the north London club’s poor run of form.
The shocking result has raised doubts over Pochettino’s future at the club following a disappointing start to the season that has also seen the north London club getting eliminated from the Carabao Cup from League Two side Colchester.
Fans took to Twitter after the Champions League hammering and expressed their belief that the Argentine will soon move to another challenge.
Manchester United have been keeping tabs on the former Southampton boss for years having been impressed with his work at Tottenham.
Fans are confident Tuesday’s thrashing will prove to be critical in the 47-year-old’s future and expect him to soon move to Old Trafford in order to replace under-fire Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at the helm.
One user tweeted: “Pochettino to Man Utd Imminent. Yikes.”

Someone else said: “I see Pochettino in Man Utd.”
A fourth posted: “I hope Man Utd is closely monitoring this Pochettino situation…”
And another fan tweeted: “Pochettino to walk and get Man Utd job in a few months.”
