SuperSAINT Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 I need to think this over. I wonder what happened with the Rudi talks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWD Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 I don't really know enough about Puel and Pereira other than what I've seen and read over the last few days. I trust the club to make the right decision but I'm going with Pelligrini for now simply because: - PL experience - Europe experience - pretty 'big' name - Feels like he might stick around a while as he's a bit older and like England - I'd heard of him two weeks ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plastic Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 Probably Pellegrini, then Puel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alehouseboys Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 If we had been linked with Pellegrini before he went to Man City we'd have been creaming ourselves. Not necessarily my first choice but would still be amazed if he bowled up at my club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katalinic Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 Pellegrini is the lowest risk for me out of the three. Would have preferred Rudi Garcia but sounds like that isn't going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNSUN Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 Everton wanted Pereira before they got Martinez so that would be funny, and he has a decent win %, but he has IRA in his name so I don't trust him. :-) I know least about Puel, his win record isn't so good and he's spent his whole life in France. Not a bad thing per se, it just makes me worry wary of him than the other 2. So that leaves Pellegrini, my choice of the 3 listed above, though that shortlist is more underwhelming than some names I've heard in the last 2 weeks on here. Pellegrini has good pedigree, can man manage, has a name to attract players and seems quite likeable. His win % is also very good and he encourages attacking football. Whoever we go for, I'll support them, I just hope we make the appointment early next week so we can concentrate on other things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Matty 76 Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 I guess it shows how far we've come to feel a bit of disappointment that it could be Pellegrini, a manager who's won the Premier League and managed Real Madrid. May just be me though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabrice29 Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 Does Pellegrini have the hunger for it though or is it just a pay day? That's what I would be weeding out during the interview. The others will have a point to prove. If Pellegrini does have it then his work for Malaga in particular is impressive and relevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SO16_Saint Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 The three Ps. Pellegrini, Pereira and Puel. Thanks. Have to say that I know of nothing of Pereira and Puel so for that reason, and because he has a blooming good pedigree, I'm going for Pellegrini. If we did get Pellegrini, its a long way from Wotte, eh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Saints Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 Pellegrini. Big name and did well similar sized clubs in Spain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie May Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 Pellegrini was my choice from day one. He will turn us into top four challengers. Whatever you say about City's form last season, this guy has won the Premier League and would become out-and-out the club's most illustrious managerial appointment in history.

Well, he'll be near-on 70 by the end our our new 5 year plan, I won't be that far behind, I hope he'll be more enthusiastic about his job than I'm likely to be at that age.

CB Fry Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 Don't particularly want any of them. I've fallen love with Rudi and the club should do everything in their power to get him because I want him and I want him now. Pereira looks astonishingly average - exchange Greece for Scotland and basically he's Alex McLeish. Puel looks boring. One league wonder and drab. No. Pelligrini basically a central American Peter Stringfellow. I'd go Manuel P as the best option of the three but don't believe for a second we'd appoint him. At least Howe is out.

washsaint Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 I really wanted Rudi just cos of the songs they could play before games.......

Saint-Armstrong Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 Pellegrini did well with Villarreal too, if you cast your minds back. Sorry to be 'that guy' but in seven years we've gone from Mark Wotte to a Premier League winning manager who guided a team to the last four of the Champions League last season and has previously managed Real Madrid. Just... wow. I trust the board to make the right appointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strangely Brown Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 (edited) Pellegrini for me too however, the one thing I can't come to terms with is the fact given the playing resources he had at Citeh he only won the league once or am I just being picky?

Badger Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 Not excited by any of the above. Pelligrini - nice bloke, but I just wonder if he'd inspire the squad. I just visualise him wondering around the training ground in a tracksuit, but his tartan check slippers really giving him away. Puel - have read some good things about him but note the critiscism of his style of play. Vitor - seems too much of a gamble and his track record appears a jorneyman and nothing to write home about. At least Garcia had been at some decent clubs. If forced to choose one of the three then Pelligrini would be the one, but I was hoping for a more exciting choice. Cetainly if Pelligrini is selected then it exposes a myth as to how well prepared we are in keeping tabs on up and coming managers who fit our profile.

Saint IQ Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 I'd still have Jorge Sampaoli as my first choice, he still hasn't signed for Sevilla yet but as I'm posting this he'll probably be confirmed tomorrow After that FDB or Pellegrini will be fine I suppose, not impressed with the other 2.

eelpie Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 Interesting https://m.oddschecker.com/m/football/football-specials/southampton/next-permanent-manager Some names from the past there, like Egil Ostenstadt and Marian Pahars. I know Marian has management experience, but does Egil? I'm wondering if none of the 'fancied names' land the job if the job will eventually go to complete outsiders. It would be interesting to know about these twos' managerial credentials - if only because they are true Saints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozzybear Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 For me Puel has a point to prove as its a step up, plus it sounds like he plays a style we want to see here and improve/bring through the youngsters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlakeySFC Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 I think anyone who wouldn't be excited by Pellegrini rocking up here needs their brains tested, PL winning manager, managed at some of the top clubs in Europe, experience of managing at a similar size club to Saints with a similar philosophy (Villarreal), don't see what anyone doesn't like to be honest.

Badger Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 Puel for me, forward thinking and in it for the long term....Pellegrini is top notch but short term...not for me. What evidence is there that he is 'forward thinking'? And if he did come here do you not think he might use this as a stepping stone as our last two have?. Pelligrini. Yes, I've had the same thought that he isn't a long term appointment, but as two seasons is the going rate now why might we expect anything more from him or another. For me Puel has a point to prove as its a step up, plus it sounds like he plays a style we want to see here and improve/bring through the youngsters. Really ? On the previous thread it was commented that he played a defensive style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chalkboy Posted 17 June, 2016 Share Posted 17 June, 2016 Cetainly if Pelligrini is selected then it exposes a myth as to how well prepared we are in keeping tabs on up and coming managers who fit our profile. Thing is, the club can keep tabs on every manager going, but they have to want to come here firstly, and also once the club meets them they might not be quite suitable. Garcia would have been my uninformed choice....after that I really haven't a clue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
