Tottenham Hotspur left-back Danny Rose has insisted that Mauricio Pochettino will become Manchester United manager during his career.
The Argentine boss left Spurs in November and was replaced by Jose Mourinho.
Pochettino has been out of work since but was heavily linked with a move to United before Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was appointed as manager.
Despite United's consistent support for Solskjaer, Rose believes it's inevitable his former boss will take the reins at Old Trafford during his managerial career.
The England left-back, currently on loan at Newcastle United, was appearing on The Lockdown Tactics podcast, hosted by West Ham star Robert Snodgrass and former Rangers striker Kris Boyd.
When asked whether Pochettino was destined for a "Real Madrid, Barcelona or Manchester City" type of job, former Leeds player Rose said: "Without a doubt. Without a doubt. [That intensity] they all got it from [Leeds manager Marcelo] Bielsa. I know Poch, he idolises Bielsa. They all got that work ethic from him."
Pressed on where he thought the Argentine would end up as a manager, Rose simply responded: "Eventually United."
On life under Pochettino, he admitted the Tottenham boss was very strict in his approach.
"I think [it takes time to adapt], especially for foreign managers. You hear what regimes are like when managers come in," Rose said.
"I heard that [Antonion] Conte had a strict regime when he came in at Chelsea and I heard that he wasn't willing to compromise in any shape or form.
"Even under Poch, he had a different culture to the British. It wasn't that he didn't understand it - you know the British like to have a drink - it was just something that he couldn't get his head around.
"He's another one. He wasn't willing to compromise on that either. Even after we beat Ajax in the Champions League semi-final and it was obviously the biggest night of our careers. On the flight home, we weren't allowed a drink.
"It was 'no you're training tomorrow, you're up at 9am'. So it's just one of those things. British managers do different things. Foreign managers, sometimes it'll take them time to adapt or for the players to adapt to them. It's something that is just one of those things in football."
