United might gain from interviewing numerous managers if the next appointment goes wrong, according to Ince, who was speaking to Mark Goldbridge of MUFC's The United Stand (the conversation can be found here).

Ten Hag might have a different idea than Pochettino, says the manager of Reading now. In the case of an additional manager, which I believe they should do, another two or three, they might come up with an entirely new perspective; nevertheless, as things stand, they appear to be focused on just two individuals."

"Why not just interview two or three [additional] people?" Ince added, "you could be shocked by what you find out." United would say, 'well, this might be the route to go forward,' but they haven't; it's just the two of them."

After Goldbridge brings up Brighton manager Graham Potter, the former United midfielder discusses how interviewing a large number of managers could benefit the club in the long run by stating:

You might not remember Graham Potter's interview right away; however, in two or three years' time, you'll look back and recall how impressive he was and how much you appreciated his ideas and philosophical approach. It could be any other manager...all that is necessary is to gain an understanding of their plans for moving the team forward."

Ince, who was recently appointed interim manager for Reading after going through the interview process earlier this year, provides some excellent insight.

Despite the fact that he believes Pochettino will "get it," the idea of gathering the views of potential managers in advance might be extremely beneficial to United, who have made a number of poor managerial choices since Sir Alex Ferguson stepped down at the end of the 2012-13 season.
