Where do we go from here and what do we think about Mauricio Pochettino?

[reader1234]

I like most others on this forum was really shocked at Nigel Adkins dismissal yesterday. I guess there has been a lot going on behind the scenes and probably behind his back.

I think back to the Coventry game last year when after winning promotion while all of us were celebrating he was strongly hinting at a parting of the ways, that this would be inevitable one day. Strange words from a man that had just led his club to successive promotions.

So how do we feel today and what do we think about Mauricio Pochettino's appointment.

 

Personally I feel angry at the club for the way this has been done to yet another manager and would really like to protest in the strongest way. But we have to consider that we have another must win game on Monday. We have to get behind the team and this new manager as well otherwise we risk losing everything we have gained over the last two seasons. There are some really tough games coming up and we have to ask the question why change things at this stage. Pochettino has got to hit the road running because if he doesn't who knows what the response of the fans will be. The trouble is if we protest as most of us would like to then its our club that will suffer.

 

I have to say I know nothing about Mauricio Pochettino other than what I have recently read. His interview yesterday was hardly inspiring and as is the case with many premier league interviews it will be hard work listening to him. I have to say Nigel Adkins strength was not in giving interviews but more importantly he got the job done where it really matters.

A good performance and a great win on Monday will certainly be a good starting point for winning the fans over.

In broad terms the new manager will probably be in place for a couple of years, generally achieving what was set out for him. Then in what turn out to be his final months, rumours will start whilst NC searches for a replacement. The replacement will step in having studied the team for a few months and MP will be advised via the media he is out of work.

 

And that will be The Saints until the Liebherr millions run out. Take it or leave it, but understand which ever stance you adopt is irrelevant to 'The Project'........
