I'm beginning to wonder if Brexit will affect our employing a European manager and players?

Strongly doubt they'll struggle getting visas

There'll be a long transition period anyway, doubt if anything will change overnight.

I think we need to create a new poll to capture the new viable additions the field like Rudi Garcia and Gerry Francis.

[Plastic]

Garcia looks worth a bet at 11/1 for the 5.00 at Ascot today.

As for being Saints next Manager? I don't know.

 

Not even on Paddy Power's shortlist this morning, now at evens.

Good ol Gerry, definitely worth his place on any viable manager list

[tisspahars]

Someone has just asked for Oscar Garcia to be added to the Betfair market - our mystery man?

Now that would be a strange world where we don't fancy FdB, but we want Oscar Garcia?

In The Know or ****ed It Up ?

[tisspahars]

They only quite the best price available and as he has only just been added to the market nobody is offering realistic prices yet...

Mystery manager is foreign according to JW. Seems to be a 3 man shortlist - Garcia, FDB and Mystery manager. Redmond deal for £8m on the cards.

Pellegrini is chilean, pochettino is argie

 

Why would it?

Interesting that Jeremy Wilson still has De Boer on list, out of all journos, he is normally rational and clued up re Saints!

FDB was my first choice and still think he could do a great job! Also interested that JW also mentioned the third foreign coach but no name, getting more intriguing by the second

Maybe it is Joachim Low, although his contract runs to 2018, contracts mean nothing these days. Has a good ball playing philosophy.

& if K.Billy is saying he hasn't been mentioned on here then he must be a particularly left-field choice.

Wow must be about a 5000-1 shot then.

[buctootim]

Why would it?

 

Because Pellegrini has an Italian passport and Pochettino a Spanish one?

[parkiben]

Maybe KBSS is JW? There's a thought. Not new manager related obviously

[Saint-Armstrong]

Nice, a Jeremy Wilson piece.

 

So we're down to the final three: Garcia, De Boer + mystery man.

 

Fitness testing is in 12 days so Saints want someone in place soon.

 

Looking forward to the next development...

[Lord Duckhunter]

The article states we're wary of anyone using us as a stepping stone . If that's the criteria they're using to rule people out ,we'll end up with Nigel again . Won't leave a lot to choose from

We haven't had a Saints related this mysterious since the Magnificent Seven wanted to buy the club.

[K,Billy's supersound]

Cheers for update. Are you able to say what country or continent the 'mystery man' comes from?

 

Also French

[Batman]

Blanc

[SuperSAINT]

Also French

 

Deschamps? If it's Remi Garde we are in trouble

[SuperSAINT]

Blanc

 

Thing is, how would Blanc or Deschamps not be "stepping stones".

 

I don't mind a "stepping stone" coach if it means they have had great success here.

[Bewildered]

Also French

 

Christophe Galtier?

Patrice Garande?

Stephané Moulin?

[Saint-Armstrong]

Philippe Montanier

[OttawaSaint]

Cantona!

[Nolan]

Probably is Remi Garde, I remember him flying high in the betting last before we got Koeman.

 

I don't think you can count him out based on his 23 matches at Villa, I don't think even Alex Ferguson could have helped villa last year.

[Pengi]

Can't be Deschamps or Blanc or Garde as KBSS said he did not know much about Mystery man. KBSS is such a tease:p

[sydenhamssocks]

Eduardo Berizzo at Celta Vigo? Another Bielsa disciple.

 

Vincenzo Montella? Former Fiorentina manager. Only sacked because he fell out with the owner.

 

Montella would be a good shout. Currently at Sampdoria. I've followed Fiorentinas fortunes for a few years and he was doing a great job until, as you say, a disagreement with owners.

Something to do with 'lack of respect'. Italian owners hire and fire at will though

 

3x 4th place finishes in Serie A (Europa qualification)

1x Runner up Coppa Italia 2014

Semi final of Europa league 14/15.(lost to Seville)

 

Worth a look ?!?!

[Pilchards]

You would think the person we are interested in is not under contract elsewhere.

Claude Puel? Left Nice in May.

[Pass the Dutchie]

I don't fully understand the resistance against 'stepping stone' coaches. Two years is a decent spell for any coach nowadays, especially if they're bringing success.

[themasoon]

Jocelyn Gourvennec. Remember the name

[angelman]

Jocelyn Gourvennec. Remember the name

 

Appointed as Bordeaux manager 2½ weeks ago

Haha scrub that then. Sorry read somewhere how he was a young and well respected manager in France which could've been a good fit for us.

[Nolan]

Jocelyn has Just been named Bordeaux manager

[Ultimatt]

Fairly unknown French Manager? Hubert Fournier? Lyon have a famous youth academy and he played a ton of kids. Finished 2nd in Ligue 1.

Edited 16 June, 2016 by Ultimatt
looked it up, 442

[Lord Duckhunter]

Why the mystery?

 

I can only think of 3 reasons

 

He's in a job, so we're basically tapping him up.

 

He's not in a job , but don't want to alert other clubs that he's available. If this is the case , he must have a pretty poor agent , or is so bad that none of the clubs looking for managers thought of him . I can't believe at his unveiling other clubs are going to be like " oh shiete why didn't we think of him" .

 

He doesn't exist

[Pamplemousse]

Rémi Garde?

 

[thefuriousb]

Fairly unknown French Manager? Hubert Fournier? Lyon have a famous youth academy and he played a ton of kids. Finished 2nd in Ligue 1. Pretty sure they played 4-3-3 with Lacazette the frontman.

 

He was replaced by Bruno Genesio around the turn of the year. Don't now if that means we would be looking at the current or previous manager of Lyon. Neither of which mean much to me

I want people to use us as a stepping stone. If Garcia becomes the next Arsenal manager in 2018 then he would have done brilliantly for us. What's the problem?

[DT]

The only clubs which are not stepping stones are Barca and Real Madrid
