I wonder if they'd try to bring Poch in before the end of the season to get a bit of work in with the squad given the decisions that will have to be made.

I don't hate it as much as I could.
To dramatically change the culture of the club will take lots of time, money, hardship and patience. Football doesn't tend to operate like that though, it's all about results and if you don't get them the pressure quickly builds from the fans and the media. The chairman/board has to 100% believe in the manager and back him fully through the hard times which will inevitably come.
Rangnick is the Austrian national coach. Doubt he'd leave that to be a DoFMaybe Levy has told Nagelsmann he and Rangnick as DoF can have full control...
Poch going to Chelsea will sting a bit. But he has to work and if he and the club cannot reignite their old flame then so be it.
It will however be very interesting to see the mental gymnastics by certain sections of the fandom to blame it on anyone but Poch and his own free will to take the job.

if he thinks chelsea are a mess i cant imagine what he thinks of us
Romano getting paid by CHELSEA CHAVS PR team fo sho, media spin taking blame of the CHavs.
chavs PR teams trying to save face, saying Nagelsmann isnt good enough in essence.... Romano showing he is a paid shill
In all seriousness this is how the rumors mill works.
Chelsea tell Romano to release a story that makes them look good.
In return, Romano will probably "break" a big story in the near future
He's also just a colossally overrated figure due to being a byword for DoF-core systemball and the fact that D's oF aren't easily googleable like managers are. He's the only name people know to express the idea that they want a non-Levy football figure pulling the strings.
He did very well with the Red Bull system, a job and context that has absolutely nothing to do with anything at Spurs (for one thing, grossly outspending all of their competition). He totally showed his ass at United, not unexpectedly because he got put in an impossible position where his skills were meaningless. That's what it would be like here too.
I guess the big question there is did we show any interest?
If he chose Chelsea over us, it's definitely his fault.
If he just chose to work back in the PL for a club because we weren't interested, then it's not entirely his choice. Levy et all had a role in it and it's much tougher to blame Poch for that choice.
Very conflicted about Poch and Nagelsmann now.
Poch to Chelsea is going to be such a weird thing that I don't know how I'm going to react the moment they visit White Hart Lane. One of the most beloved figures of Tottenham at the 2nd most disliked club.
At the same time, if we are able to get Nagelsmann it would soften the blow of Poch going to Chelsea a lot. Very excited if he's going to be the new Spurs manager.

What should he do? Never coach again?
It’s not Woolwich anyway. If both clubs are looking for new manager and Tottenham clearly didn’t call him, he should reject Chelsea because?
Staff at Spurs get paid slightly better I would bet, also as someone who has worked a lot as DoF I wouldn't think being limited to National Pool of talent would be as appealing.
I could of course be wrong, but I don't think him being the Austrian Manager means he's off limits.
