Saint Charlie Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Yakin out on grounds of poor English according to Peachy.
Bewildered Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Simon Peach @SimonPeach 1m #SaintsFC keen not to appoint another manager without a decent grasp of English, which would suggest a move for Murat Yakin is a no-goer.
CB Fry Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Let's get this straight, people are simulteously annoyed that: a) they didn't spend all their time convincing Pochetinno to stay b) they didn't spend all their time in preparing the replacement shortlist Brilliant.

Convict Colony Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Any foreign language experts out there? http://www.fcbforum.ch/forum/showthread.php?35549-Yakin-raus This is my fav quote from the forum thanks to google translate. "I am the laughter stuck in my throat, cry no more unfortunately goes."
SuperMikey Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Would be stupid to rule out some very good candidates purely because of their language - get him here before the World Cup, get him settled and get him learning English. A new manager would have several weeks before even pre-season training starts.
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 I would imagine Remi Garde speaks English after his spell at Arsenal and he's available and now being linked with Brighton. Could be good for us I'd have thought unless French football experts on here think otherwise?

Thought he said his English was okay, but would need it to improve. Can't see that ruling him out. Might rule a few South Americans out though, and David Moyes.
Ken Tone Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 I read somewhere that he said his English was good enough to speak to the players, but not yet good enough for the media. So about the same as Pochettino when he arrived then.
Ken Tone Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Must make Koeman a strong contender . Most Dutch speak better English than most English people.
richard Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Simon Peach @SimonPeach 1m #SaintsFC keen not to appoint another manager without a decent grasp of English.. Damnit, was hoping that Hakuna Matata guy was going to get the job.
Convict Colony Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Though Yakin had a good chat yesterday with the local paper
CB Fry Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Damnit, was hoping that Hakuna Matata guy was going to get the job. No. Passing craze.
Saint Charlie Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Though Yakin had a good chat yesterday with the local paper Via Interpreter they said.
Appy Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Simon Peach @SimonPeach 1m #SaintsFC keen not to appoint another manager without a decent grasp of English, which would suggest a move for Murat Yakin is a no-goer. Sherwood out of the running then.
Olallana Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Sherwood out of the running then. And definitely Paul Lambert, but maybe in his case it´s more to how he speak rather than the language that makes it impossible to understand him....
SNSUN Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Must make Koeman a strong contender . Most Dutch speak better English than most English people. ...and in Meulensteen's case, even sound more English too! Pleased it won't be Poyet. Shame if the Yakin rumours about his English are true. A lack of English didn't stop Pochettino from gaining the respect of the players...
buctootim Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 it´s more to how he speak rather than the language that makes it impossible to understand him.... He's not alone..
CB Fry Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 He not alone. Fixed for you, so Olallana can understand.
doddisalegend Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 no wonder moyes is getting knocked. There were a few that thought Guardiola was a legitimate target before MP came in Get out who actually said that?
Bewildered Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Lucien Mettomo in the frame apparently. Kleber Chala as his assistant?
stanthemanfairoak Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Anyone got the latest odds on Stan buying a post-match round in the Guide Dog?in their yesterday on me own , lol!
JakkoUK Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 I am told via a friend who is a Basel fan that Yakin isn't that great. Tactically he couldn't fault him against the 'big' teams- like the victories over Chelsea. However he said most fans didn't like him due to his defensive football and the fact he didn't go out to win games that were in most cases winnable.
Saint Charlie Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Yakin won't be our Manager, am pretty sure of that. There is always a bandwaggon name at the start. Will probably be a few more too before we get someone whose name hasnt been mentioned yet.

Tactically he couldn't fault him against the 'big' teams- like the victories over Chelsea. However he said most fans didn't like him due to his defensive football and the fact he didn't go out to win games that were in most cases winnable. Didnt lose many games though. Last season they lost just twice in the league and the season before only 6. So 8 defeats in 72 league games.... Pretty good. You also need to consider the impact of a manager leaving a club. Look at MP.... Prior to his departure he was worshipped (by many) but within 24 hours even his biggest supporters can now admit that he wasnt perfect and that will increase as some work through the 7 stages of the breakup I was fortunate to jump straight to step 7 as never really warmed to MP at all. - Shock or Disbelief - Denial - Anger - Bargaining - Guilt - Depression - Acceptance and Hope
Grey Crab Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 My mate works with Tommy Widdrington's wife and he says that Widdrington has "put his name in the hat". He's exactly what we need right now - not only is he a decent, young, talented manager but he's also got all the fans behind him - I don't know anyone who doesn't want him for the job. He's just what we need for a united club.
DT Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Stage 8 is good. Watching the prima donnas at Spurs get the better of him

dubai_phil Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Clement_(football_coach) It IS a good cv so far, and he does obviously speak English Unless he goes to WBA of course

Viking Warrior Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 I thought Simon peach was a spurs fan . Seems to enjoy trying winding us up . How would he know saints were looking for someone who spoke English . He is a typical hack making stories up . He has no more idea what saints are looking for than you and I on here . He needs to listen to RK interview in full Ps can peeps stop re posting alps posts. pretty please

sfc6mufc3 Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Widdrington, Beattie? Are you people for real? We are a top 10 premier league team and therefore deserve the best.
Viking Warrior Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Clement would be good as one of our replacement academy coaches . SaintdanCam will not be happy gus will not be joining us
CB Fry Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Widdrington, Beattie? Are you people for real? We are a top 10 premier league team and therefore deserve the best. The Tommy Widdrington stuff comes out every time we need a new manager. It's almost gone through the comedy pain barrier of being funny through constant repetition but not quite.

SB Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 I'm most worried about the fact that MP is likely to take some players with him, in regards to the five year contract he'll be gone by Christmas. I'd take Moyes personally, although we have to remember that even though he built a good team ay Everton with no bigotry transfers, they players themselves are on big wages

CB Fry Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Gordon Strachan got the training kit delivered to his doorstep yesterday. Has Skacel moved into Martin O'Neill's house yet?
sfc6mufc3 Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 In my opinion we should be looking at Laudrup, Moyes, Lennon, possibly Mackay.
SuperMikey Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Has Skacel moved into Martin O'Neill's house yet? What, the one that MON bought in Winchester?
richardc Posted 28 May, 2014 Posted 28 May, 2014 Poyet signs new deal at Sunderland - good news for us. Weird, weird bloke and mostly atrocious signings. I spent a day with Gus and I thought he was a really nice bloke and very funny
