Despite his difficulties in the past, Nigel Pearson is a no nonsense manager who can get the best out of average players.
Having moved to Belgium to manage a second tier side I doubt he would want to return to the premiership ( let alone Southampton ),
but he is the type of manager this club needs right now. My other choice would be David Moyes, who is better than his record indicates.
Alex Ferguson knew a thing or two about football management, and it was he who chose DM to succeed him at Utd.
We are in a scrap for survival, and need somebody with experience of the situation.
One thing is certain Mark Hughes has to go.
