saintwbu Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 As has been mentioned, very strange for the Echo to mention this Pereira guy given that it hasn't been mentioned elsewhere and he's not on the odds list, perhaps a hint on behalf of the club?
david in sweden Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Is it a long 'short' list? For interest: Les Reed (in an old interview) said that after Pochettino left, there were over 40 applications for the managers job....and the list included some "very impressive" names. (RK was top of their list and in the end it seemed like a no-brainer).
SuperSAINT Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Interesting. I would imagine Howe is fairly high up but seemingly not interested in the move. Which from our original few leaves...? Emery (going to PSG), Flores (gone to Espanyol), Pereira.........? Or someone to bolt out of left-field. Hmm... MOYES?!
Saint Charlie Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Interesting. I would imagine Howe is fairly high up but seemingly not interested in the move. Which from our original few leaves...? Emery (going to PSG), Flores (gone to Espanyol), Pereira.........? Or someone to bolt out of left-field. Hmm... If we really rate Howe as highly as has been made out then I doubt we would just leave it at that. Like Everton didn't with RK. Going to be really interesting to see who we go for! I think we have a very specific set of criteria that the mainstream media will gloss over when linking us with people, so most of the Mirror/Star clickbait stories will be rubbish.

Is this a disguised hint, or should we consult Sherlock Holmes ?
Jai27 Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 MOYES?! Please no. That would be the most disappointing managerial appointment since Paul Sturrock.
Saint-Armstrong Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 I suppose the most important question is are the club working on their #1 target, really? If they are, I'm cool with that decision.
S-Clarke Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 I suppose the most important question is are the club working on their #1 target, really? If they are, I'm cool with that decision. I saw the Juventus manager linked somewhere, not that is even a close possibility of ever happening. Just thought I'd throw that name out there for a laugh.
SuperSAINT Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 I suppose the most important question is are the club working on their #1 target, really? If they are, I'm cool with that decision. Is this why the the Vitor Pereira name was casually put out there today, do you think?
Saints foreva Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Forget about AVB and RDB both are way down the shortlist. What about Moyes....?
Saint Rees Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Forget about AVB and RDB both are way down the shortlist. Interesting, does this suggest the short list includes targets most fans thought would be out of reach? Or the opposite? I seem to remember Thomas Tuchel being mentioned...
Batman Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Is this why the the Vitor Pereira name was casually put out there today, do you think? seems a bit out there. only been at Fenerbache for 12 months and did not get the everton Job (when Martinez took over) are FdB and AvB down the list on our doing or theirs?
Saint-Armstrong Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 I did wonder if we'd go for another Pochettino appointment. Younger, forward-thinking coach who will surprise people. Looks like it's heading that way... (unless we're going old guard, with Moyes/Pellegrini - I'd be surprised)
S-Clarke Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 I can't see Moyes of Pellegrini being fits for us to be honest, would be a very short-term quick fix kind of appointment (although even Moyes doesn't really equal any sort of fix these days). The Victor fella, on paper, looks a shoe in. But other than what I've read, I have no idea on him.
SuperSAINT Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 I did wonder if we'd go for another Pochettino appointment. Younger, forward-thinking coach who will surprise people. Looks like it's heading that way... (unless we're going old guard, with Moyes/Pellegrini - I'd be surprised) I loved the Poch style of play with the pressing - LOVED IT. The thing about Vitor is (regardless of his skills as a coach) - He's not really much of a "long term planner" is he? 2002–2003 Padroense (juniors) 2003–2004 Porto (juniors) 2004–2005 Sanjoanense 2005–2007 Espinho 2007–2008 Porto (juniors) 2008–2010 Santa Clara 2010–2011 Porto (assistant) 2011–2013 Porto 2013–2014 Al-Ahli 2015 Olympiacos 2015-Present Fenerbahçe
Saint-Armstrong Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 KBilly said RDB but assume meant FDB? That's my assumption.
Pamplemousse Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Forget about AVB and RDB both are way down the shortlist. But what about FDB?
Sleaford_Saint Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Forget about AVB and RDB both are way down the shortlist. So is Frank near the top??
Chalkboy Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 I seem to remember Thomas Tuchel being mentioned... K Billy mentioned it back in April.
S-Clarke Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 K Billy mentioned it back in April. Good spot... If and when he leaves i wouldn't be surprised if we tried to interview Thomas Tuchel.
SuperSAINT Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 K Billy mentioned it back in April. He was available last time around - He's at Dortmund this time.
Saint IQ Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Forget about AVB and RDB both are way down the shortlist. Few bob to be made on the next manager if someone guesses right then.....Unless it's Eddie Howe who seemingly won't leave his beloved Bournemouth just yet... I've said Sampoali would be interesting also that Marco Silva seems an interesting shout someone was mentioning. Very good record when I read up on him, looks to be a charismatic chap and only 38 so still very young for a coach. I reckon we're looking at someone not so obvious like these guys.
Saint-Armstrong Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 I get the feeling Les really likes Eddie, but I just don't know if he'd come here. If he would, I could see him being the new boss quite easily.
K,Billy's supersound Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Sorry meant Fdb. club don't want either and Moyes no chance. Unai, Howe, Pelligrini and another at top of list. Vitor also mentioned.
SuperSAINT Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Forget about AVB and RDB both are way down the shortlist. I've just been thinking about this - It was only this morning that I had them pencilled in as No.1 & No.2 on what I thought our shortlist was.
SuperSAINT Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Sorry meant Fdb. club don't want either and Moyes no chance. Unai, Howe, Pelligrini and another at top of list. Vitor also mentioned. **Frantically re-writes shortlist** NEW POLL PLEASE!
Jai27 Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Sorry meant Fdb. club don't want either and Moyes no chance. Unai, Howe, Pelligrini and another at top of list. Vitor also mentioned. Great news about Moyes! Interesting that FDB and AVB aren't up there. Wonder who the other mystery candidate is...
Pancake Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Forget about AVB and RDB both are way down the shortlist. What about FDB?
S-Clarke Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Well that's blown everyone's shortlist out of the water Surprised Pelligrini is mentioned though, didn't think he was a 'fit', but still bloody hell...cracking manager.
DG Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Sorry meant Fdb. club don't want either and Moyes no chance. Unai, Howe, Pelligrini and another at top of list. Vitor also mentioned. Interesting, thought Guan said Pelligrini was very unlikely? ITK fight!
angelman Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 I reckon the favourite is "another at the top of the list".
thorpie the sinner Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Sorry meant Fdb. club don't want either and Moyes no chance. Unai, Howe, Pelligrini and another at top of list. Vitor also mentioned. Out of that list, I would take Vitor now!! interesting to see who 'another' is?
Saint IQ Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 (edited) Sorry meant Fdb. club don't want either and Moyes no chance. Unai, Howe, Pelligrini and another at top of list. Vitor also mentioned. That another is clearly the top of the list as you aren't allowed to give it away Edited 9 June, 2016 by Saint IQ
S-Clarke Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Great news about Moyes! Interesting that FDB and AVB aren't up there. Wonder who the other mystery candidate is... Going back to kbilly's post in April, got a feeling Tuchel is on the list. Very ambitious, but he has been on our radar before during his time at Mainz. I seem to remember him being linked prior to MP and also Koeman. Would take one hell of a deal to get him away from Dortmund though.
Jai27 Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 I reckon the favourite is "another at the top of the list". My thoughts also. Not a clue who it could be though...
SuperSAINT Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Well that's blown everyone's shortlist out of the water Surprised Pelligrini is mentioned though, didn't think he was a 'fit', but still bloody hell...cracking manager. It might narrow itself down if Emery goes to PSG / Howe stays put / Pellegrini goes to Milan! I reckon it might be Vitor. I suppose it all depends on what type of coach/manager the club wants.

Saint-Armstrong Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 I reckon the favourite is "another at the top of the list". Yeah, I think so too.
S-Clarke Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Please don't say stuff like this, I can't have my hopes raised that high it's not good for health Sorry! It would be utterly ridiculous to be honest. I think SuperSAINT is right when he think's it's Vitor to be honest, seems a solid fit.
Saint-Armstrong Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 To flag up what K Billy has said on another thread, AVB and FdB aren't at the top end of Les Reed's list. However, the following managers are... Emery Howe Pellegrini Mystery Manager (...?!)
Bewildered Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Sorry meant Fdb. club don't want either and Moyes no chance. Unai, Howe, Pelligrini and another at top of list. Vitor also mentioned. So Howe has supposedly said no, Emery is bound for PSG and speculation over Pellegrini to Milan has heated up. So it looks like Vitor or the unknown manager are the more likely atm unless Pellegrini is desperate enough for another crack at the PL that he would snub Milan. Is the mystery candidate someone you have not been informed of, or is it a name the club wants kept quiet?
SuperSAINT Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Sorry! It would be utterly ridiculous to be honest. I think SuperSAINT is right when he think's it's Vitor to be honest, seems a solid fit. Tuchel would be awesome. But it's not like Dortmund aren't pulling some cracking signings out of the hat.
saintwbu Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Tuchel would be awesome. But it's not like Dortmund aren't pulling some cracking signings out of the hat. And having sold Hummels, Gundogan and by the looks of it Aubameyang, I guess it's his chance to now make that team his own. We can dream though.
Pamplemousse Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 So much for the exclusive in the Express that we had offered FDB a contract
Saint Charlie Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 You don't leave Dortmund (having only been there a short time and done ok) to join Southampton. Would be a thousand times more odd than Koeman's move. Shortlist looks good but Emery will seemingly be struck off soon.
K,Billy's supersound Posted 9 June, 2016 Posted 9 June, 2016 Not Tuchel. I doubt anyone would ever get who it is his name has not been mentioned atall and he's just one being considered club won't rush this appointment they are in no panic.
