And Castles says Pochettino is the man to do just that at United, as well as continuing to develop the promising youngsters at the club.
“Given this situation now, given what most people perceive as being beyond the beginning of the end for Solskjaer, very close to the end for Solskjaer, United need to make a big step change in the leadership of the club, they need to present the supporters with a compelling candidate as the next manager,” Castles said on the Transfer Window Podcast.
“Pochettino, despite this difficult start to the season, is very much regarded as one of the top coaches in world football.
“And therefore [he] would be very sellable I think to the supporters as a means of playing the kind of football that United want to play.
