Mauricio Pochettino Becomes Latest High-Profile Manager to Fall Into PSG’s Trap

Mauricio Pochettino is being unceremoniously dumped by Paris Saint-Germain, talks of a successor search happening out in the open before his termination package has even been agreed upon. He’ll leave behind a sense of vague dissatisfaction and regret, no legacy to speak of. He won a league title and French Cup, but he failed in Europe and so will join an ever-lengthening list of managers who have found themselves unable to overcome the internal contradictions of a club that is beginning to look unmanageable.

The good news for Pochettino is that managers tend to recover from the PSG experience.
