Matthew Le God Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 Wonder if the mystery man is the Rayo Vallecano manager Paco Jemez. Fits the profile of a young manager who plays pressing football but more attacking than Pochettino and has done well considering the clubs small budget. Saw someone on Twitter mention that he had an offer from an English club and seeing as we are the only manager less PL club it could be us. Interesting shout...they have had a good season ??? They were relegated!
Convict Colony Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 http://outsideoftheboot.com/2015/08/27/tactical-philosophy-paco-jemez/ Sounds like he has an very exciting style, I like the sound of him for sure, good find

Saint IQ Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 I'm sorry but why the clamour for Vitor Pereira? Doesn't seem to have a brilliant managerial background. What makes him perfect for Saints? Apologies if already stated pages ago. I don't get the hype for him either. I'll throw another name into the hat Could Jorge Jesus be managing at the Virgin St Mary's Stadium this season?
JxgrSaint Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 Les Reed is currently in Japan So am I! I'll keep my eyes out for interesting earlobes...
Badger Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 ??? They were relegated! As was Strachan immediately before he joined us. But yes, its always a worry. On the other hand when a potential name is put forward having won their leagues (FDB , Marco Silva) they are dismissed having won titles in tin pot leagues with big clubs.
angelman Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 Les Reed is currently in Japan https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_J.League_managers PS - a bit out of date as Stojkovic is in China
Saint_Ash Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 I heard that Reed wasn't to worried about the situation even though it has come out of the blue, he has gone on holiday so obviously not too panicky. Ralph went a bit mental though and ordered all of Ron's possessions out of staplewood immediately.
themasoon Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 But he kept them up for many seasons despite having by far the smallest budget and having to sell their best players every year. It's equivalent to what Martinez did at Wigan but far better as the disparity in budgets between Rayo Vallecano and the rest of the league is far greater with no equal tv pay and a rumoured budget of only €7 mil a year to cover all costs.
Pancake Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 Les Reed is currently in Japan Hopefully looking at a club link up rather than a prospective manager...
Badger Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 Hopefully looking at a club link up rather than a prospective manager... Wengers's previous job was in Japan prior to Arsenal.
Pancake Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 Wengers's previous job was in Japan prior to Arsenal. So it might have been (I don't have the impetus to check) but on browsing the current J League managers there is no-one that looks like our kinda chap.
Suhari Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 Les Reed is currently in Japan He's buying some new weapons to keep in his office.
Saint IQ Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 Eusebio Di Francesco the Sassuolo manager has he been mentioned? Won Serie B with them got sacked the following January only to come back in March and miraculously keep them up, then guided them to a 12th place 14/15 And a very impressive 6th place last season considering they're one of the smallest teams in the league.
so22saint Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 K Billy, please confirm the other name is not Steve McClaren

Would be deeply underwhelmed with him (based solely on his wiki page). Pretty undistinguished management career and not that young any more. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paco_J%C3%A9mez

buctootim Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 At 46 ??? Well he's not decomposing but 46 hardly fits the description of a "young" coach.
Saint_Ash Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 Well he's not decomposing but 46 hardly fits the description of a "young" coach. I classed Koeman as a young coach and he's in his 50s isn't he? Anyone can be classed as young if they are stood next to Pellegrini, even though he's not as old as he looks.

That makes me young then, and Im sat here planning where to retire - a bit like Koeman by the looks of it.
Saint_Ash Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 That makes me young then, and Im sat here planning where to retire - a bit like Koeman by the looks of it. Ha yeah, Koeman can retire in one seasons time by the looks of it.

Pengi Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 K Billy, please confirm the other name is not Steve McClaren Hope this is not the reason that K Billy has not revealed the name of the mystery manager
SuperSAINT Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 Hope this is not the reason that K Billy has not revealed the name of the mystery manager The McClaren thing was started by me saying "Thank f*ck Steve McClaren has been mentioned" AFTER K.Billy said the mystery is someone who hasn't been mentioned. There's nothing in it.
whelk Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 The McClaren thing was started by me saying "Thank f*ck Steve McClaren has been mentioned" AFTER K.Billy said the mystery is someone who hasn't been mentioned. There's nothing in it. Solid enough for me. Now where's my white hankie?
Badger Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 Well he's not decomposing but 46 hardly fits the description of a "young" coach. Anything much younger though and some might label them "inexperienced", ie Howe, & Silva. AVB is perhaps the exception to this as still young, but quite experienced (certainly experienced of getting the sack).
Crab Lungs Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 Silva, Howe, AVB... Aren't they still in their 30's? . Just read up on Roger Schmidt though, he's an interesting proposition.
Suhari Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 And Schmidt knows Mane too.... Can't say I'm familiar. Can someone tell me anything?........ About Schmidt
Saint Without a Halo Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 If we eventually get Frank De Boer do we get his assistant at Ajax Denis Bergcamp too? A good mix of defensive and offensive experience
Crab Lungs Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 A bit more on Schmidt here http://theinsidechannel.com/guide-roger-schmidts-tactics-bayer-leverkusen/
thefuriousb Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 And Schmidt knows Mane too.... I have been waiting for someone to mention this. I think he is an interesting 'outsider' (a n other), though I still prefer Marcellino from Villarreal if you assume it won't be any of the others on the shortlist K Billy posted
thefuriousb Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 A bit more on Schmidt here http://theinsidechannel.com/guide-roger-schmidts-tactics-bayer-leverkusen/ Or here: http://www.fourfourtwo.com/features/fourfourtwos-50-best-football-managers-world-2015-30-26#:p84AdVbGyzZakA Though it is a year out of date now so don't be put off by rankings
Crab Lungs Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 One more to consider reading, less tactics, more story http://www.thetacticsroom.com/articles/2015/5/26/roger-schmidts-footballing-philosophy-and-his-breathtakingly-brilliant-bayer-leverkusen-side
Saint IQ Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 Martin Schmidt- http://www.bundesliga.com/en/news/Bundesliga/blmd26v-who-is-mainz-coach-martin-schmidt.jsp I'm starting to think the mystery manager reeks of Schmidt. There's actually two Schmidt's in the Bundesliga Roger Schmidt- Leverkusen Martin Schmidt- Mainz (who I posted about) Martin Schmidt seems a pretty cool character and says "Tuchel was his mentor"
shurlock Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 As every 'hipster' supposedly does, have watched quite a bit of the Bundesliga and Bayer Leverkusen always catch the eye. Always on the front foot and go two up top. Longy would have a field day in that team.

Pamplemousse Posted 10 June, 2016 Posted 10 June, 2016 I think Bob Bradley He is currently at Le Havre. Their owner is a Texas businessman. Since he was appointed they rocketed up Ligue 2 and ended up in 4th place. If they had scored one more goal in their final match, they would've been promoted. I still am going for the mystery manager being Caleb Porter.
