Suhari Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Pochettino: "there's no need necessarily to bring in new players before the window closes" To be fair, if he did a Redcrapp and immediately said we need to strengthen because the players are crap I suspect that would have a more negative impact.
Dr. Kucho Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Pochettino: "there's no need necessarily to bring in new players before the window closes" I thought he just said he had been researching the team for several weeks. This whole story sounds like a bad joke, BRING NIGEL BACK FFS!!
Saint_clark Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 That girl on SSN has got a cracking rack to be fair. Look pert as ****. Who else switched straight over after reading this?
LGTL Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 "Gaining the kindness of the fans is the biggest challenge I face" Not wrong there.
Spudders Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Pochettino - "I know about the squad, been researching it for weeks" Pochettino: "there's no need necessarily to bring in new players before the window closes" I assume someone is translating these comments what with the fact that he doesn't speak a word of english according to some on here!
Badger Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 All about Lance Armstrong at the moment! Sssshhh... heard C^ntese has sacked Les Reed, and brought Lance Armstrong in as Performance Director.
Bearsy Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 He isn't going to undermine us by saying 'I've got a heap of money and I'm in the mood to spend...' would put is in a ridiculously weak negotiating position. v.easy to tell if he's lying.
trousers Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 @officialsaints: Mauricio Pochettino: "Our supporters are a very important part of the Club. I hope I can convince them with work and honesty." #saintsfc
LGTL Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 I assume someone is translating these comments what with the fact that he doesn't speak a word of english according to some on here! Corerect. Translator at press conference. He doesn't speak a word.
Saint Garrett Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 I think it's actually just hit me that he's actually gone. IT'S ****ING RIDICULOUS.
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 @officialsaints: Mauricio Pochettino: "Our supporters are a very important part of the Club. I hope I can convince them with work and honesty." #saintsfc Results,results...and winning ones or you will get some serious s h ite
forever a red and white Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 How are people seeing this press conference, not on ssn?
Saint Garrett Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 MP "I don't know who Forren is, I've got no idea about this deal"
alpine_saint Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Pochettino - "I know about the squad, been researching it for weeks" LOL - first day and he drops his boss in the sh*t.
Turkish Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Gutless from Cortese not to be at the press conference and explain his decsion. even if just to show his support for his new man.
a1ex2001 Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 @officialsaints: Mauricio Pochettino: "Our supporters are a very important part of the Club. I hope I can convince them with work and honesty." #saintsfc At least he had the decency not to say integrity, hope this is the first of many press conferences during which he is appologising starting with one on Monday for our thrashing at home by Everton.
Thedelldays Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Gutless from Cortese not to be at the press conference and explain his decsion. even if just to show his support for his new man. agree with that
Colinjb Posted 18 January, 2013 Author Posted 18 January, 2013 Gutless from Cortese not to be at the press conference and explain his decsion. even if just to show his support for his new man. Have to agree.
stevegrant Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Poor from Cortese not to show up. Hardly surprising, he might actually have to answer some questions.
alpine_saint Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Pochettino: "there's no need necessarily to bring in new players before the window closes" Yep. And that makes the full circle to the times of Rupert Lowe complete
Saint Charlie Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 At least he had the decency not to say integrity, hope this is the first of many press conferences during which he is appologising starting with one on Monday for our thrashing at home by Everton. Not the new guys job to apologise, he hasn't done anything wrong himself.
a1ex2001 Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 MP "I don't know who Forren is, I've got no idea about this deal" Guess that one has gone by the board then, the lad has been saved a world of hurt not having to attend that conference! Gutless from Cortese not to be at the press conference and explain his decsion. even if just to show his support for his new man. Would you expect any less from our tosspot dictator
alpine_saint Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Gutless from Cortese not to be at the press conference and explain his decsion. even if just to show his support for his new man. Bullies are often cowards as well.
Saint Charlie Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Solent saying he has very basic English but said he will speak to the players in English as much as he can.
a1ex2001 Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Not the new guys job to apologise, he hasn't done anything wrong himself. He is the public face and mouthpiece of the club and I hope to watch him shamble away from our club at the end of the season never to be seen again I'd taking Cortese with him but we couldn't be so lucky.
Big John Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 He's a looker though, that's certain parts of the fanbase on board already.
Pilchards Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Heard Cortese is nursing a black eye so he has stayed clear.
Saint Garrett Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Guess that one has gone by the board then, the lad has been saved a world of hurt not having to attend that conference! Would you expect any less from our tosspot dictator My quote may have been made up...
alpine_saint Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 MP "I don't know who Forren is, I've got no idea about this deal" You made this up, right ?
Thedelldays Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 You made this up, right ? Forren has signed and will be announced later
a1ex2001 Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 My quote may have been made up... You made this up, right ? Balls.
Tokyo-Saint Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Solent saying he has very basic English but said he will speak to the players in English as much as he can. eeeerrrrrrrrmmmmmmmmm yes, eh...... in disa mommento we must passe the balle more. Weeeee ehhhhh, need to beeee togeetha as one, all eh workingeh to a commmonu goal. A casa dividedo cannote stand.
Hail to the Tiss Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Cortese has gone to the trouble of getting Pochettino and basically thrown him to the wolves straight off the bat. Appoints him the week of the club's best two results of the season, on a Friday before the weekend so fans will still be raw on Monday, and then leaves him to do the press conference on his own with a translator? Doesn't even try to sweeten the deal with a new signing? Doesn't sound like a manager getting very much support to me. Sounds eerily Poortvliet.
Saint Garrett Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 So, MP has said that we have signed Forren. Yet still no word from th club about it. What is this ****ing shambles. Asked who recruited Vegard Forren, MP said (with a smile): "Southampton". #saintsfc
Katalinic Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Gutless from Cortese not to be at the press conference and explain his decsion. even if just to show his support for his new man. Pretty poor I agree. I think a more detailed explanation of the decision would have been helpful.
Colinjb Posted 18 January, 2013 Author Posted 18 January, 2013 So, MP has said that we have signed Forren. Yet still no word from th club about it. What is this ****ing shambles. Surely as MP is now a club employee......
Dig Dig Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Pretty poor I agree. I think a more detailed explanation of the decision would have been helpful. Most definitely. His statement re Adkins was very poor on the OS was particularly poor as well.
Jonnyboy Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 I expect Corteses mind decided to sack Nige after the Sunderland home result.
Appy Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Still no sign of the presser being sent up this way.
a1ex2001 Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Sounds eerily Poortvliet. and we all know what caused that sorry saga and where it ended. Maybe MR Pochettino is very cheap and him and our new director of football Diego Simeone are taking less in wages combined than Adkins?
SOTONS EAST SIDE Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 That girl on SSN has got a cracking rack to be fair. Look pert as ****. Here you go!

Doesn't even try to sweeten the deal with a new signing? Doesn't sound like a manager getting very much support to me. Sounds eerily Poortvliet. I'm beginning to feel sorry for him, I think. He's come over bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, on a mission, crusade even depending on how passionate he is, and he has to work with the Don. Poor sod. Feels like a re-run of Abramovich and Ranieri...
MOSaint Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 BBC Solent Sport @solentsport MP: "I think the signing of Forren is being finalised. He's a centre half for the future, he had a lot of offers." #saintsfc BBC Solent Sport @solentsport Asked who recruited Vegard Forren, MP said (with a smile): "Southampton". #saintsfc Expand 5m BBC Solent Sport
LGTL Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 MP saying He has no idea who signed Forren. Wasn't him and wasn't Adkins.
