Zizou is good for a year or two tops, I'd love him as caretaker for the rest of the season, but not what we need now. This is a club crisis on a massive scale and needs a Pochettino type that will build something from the youth system up and stays for 10 or so years. I've said it before that United aren't a club that can withstand a long period of losing because there isn't a sheik/Russian/Asian and we aren't in London/Madrid/Paris and can't just pay out the ass to redo the lineup every 5 year cycle. Sure it's one of the biggest clubs in the world, but it was built that way through the leadership of Busby and Ferguson. This doesn't have to be a flash hire, it must be the correct hire. The club is fucked long term if they get it wrong again. I unfortunately don't have a lot of faith in the Glazers to do the right thing, they already fucked up not getting Pep when there was a window.
Plus, could you imagine how miserable Zidanne would be in northwest England? He's spent his entire life in some beautiful places in France, Italy, and Spain. I don't even know if the dude speaks English to be honest. The language isn't as big a deal as it used to be, but long term culturally, he's not a fit.
