MoPo's mentor and out of a job.

 

Director of Football anyone?

[Turkish]

We already have an excellent one in Les Reed steering the good ship under the navigation of our superb chairman.

[Matthew Le God]

To all intents and purposes we have a director of football already.

 

[georgeweahscousin]

I know, I know, but I can dream can't I?

[Matthew Le God]

Les Reed is also a company director at Saints.

you dream about who can be our director of football? bit odd.

[Turkish]

Les Reed is also a company director at Saints.

 

and what a fantastic job he's doing as well as being an all round great guy.

This would appear a cast iron upgrade! Come on Cortese, Weed the Reed!...

Isn't this more likely to create a vacancy in Spain to attract Pochettino, rather than us think about bringing his mentor in here ?

Good point. Neither have put a foot wrong since they joined the club.

He's already been replaced!

Replace one philosophy.... with the same one?

More replace one older (57) manager, who perhaps has not returned all the trophies they desire, with one of the best up and coming managers in Europe * .

 

* or is this perhaps a view not widely shared after all ?

This. Without the sarcasm ;-)

Batsh1t mental, love his tactics, inasmuch as you can love anyone's tactics. Innovative with Bilbao and Chile, not averse to a 3-1-3-3, gotta love it.

This made me lol

Of all the coaches I know in all the world, Marcelo Bielsa is by far the least likely to take a "Director of Football" type position, anywhere. He's the ultimate tracksuit manager, spends hours at the training ground, hours more watching DVDs.
