\"MauricioMauricio Pochettino<\/strong>, the former head coach at Tottenham, has his sights on the Manchester United head coach role if the club decides to let go of its beleaguered manager, Ole Gunnar Solskj\u00e6r, who has come under fire in recent months<\/a> due to the continued lack of success of the Red Devils.<\/p>\n

It is widely suspected that Solskj\u00e6r\u2019s job will be vacated if he does not lead his team to a Champions League spot this season. Manchester United did not qualify for the Champions League last season, contributing to the pressure the club feels to win now.<\/p>\n

Pochettino was fired last November<\/a> after a rough start to the Spurs\u2019 season, made worse by a series of demoralising losses, which immediately led to the Argentinian\u2019s release, despite reaching the Champions League final a few months earlier.<\/p>\n

Last season, Pochettino was rumoured to be moving to Manchester to replace Solskj\u00e6r \u2014 who was initially appointed on an interim basis before taking on the general manager role permanently, dashing Pochettino\u2019s hopes. <\/p>\n

Manchester\u2019s owners, the Glazers, have made it clear that they want Man U to finish their campaign with a spot in the UEFA Champions League<\/a>. This may be a tough barrier to overcome, as the club is currently eighth in the league, well behind fourth-placed Chelsea<\/strong>, who is six points ahead of them in the standings\u2014the two teams will face each other on Feb. 17.<\/p>\n

Fred Opens Up On Issues Plaguing Club<\/h2>\n

The team\u2019s Brazilian midfielder Fred<\/strong> revealed some of the club\u2019s ongoing problems in a recent interview posted on YouTube. Fred stated that the team needs to develop cohesion, to stimulate creativity and team spirit, helping them avoid the lacklustre play they have shown so far in the field. Fred also stated that he was not confident in his teammates\u2019 willingness to win, saying that some players appear to have different goals in mind than reaching the Champions League. <\/p>\n
