Ralph Krueger; "The most interesting man in the world".

[VectisSaint]

No wonder we lost then. One speech from that man is enough to make anyone to fall asleep. Makes Puel sound, well interesting.

Give me Puel over Krueger any day. What the feck is he up to?

I don't know but it's not normal and it suggests major problems at the club presently. I didn't think they'd sack CP unless we dropped near or into the bottom 3 but this could indicate concern and a willingness to act directly to halt a sharp decline. Would guess Ralph's had feedback from senior players and other key figures at the club.

 

Whatever he said, this was designed to be a public act and puts CP under huge pressure and Reed needs a great transfer window here. Not the way I that manage people or would want to manage people but it's unusual for this regime too.

 

We're clearly being primed for Eric Black's departure and possibly a significant turnover of players too.

Why do we need to be "primed" for Eric Black's departure? If they announced it in the next five minutes no fan would give a flying fu ck.

God only knows. But you know things are bad when they wheel him out.

[Wade Garrett]

If the idea of his talk was to get the team playing for their manager, he got his answer in spades at 4:45.

[Heisenberg]

The stories of Puel and his wife feeling lonely and now this. Genuinely feel sorry for him tonight.

 

Nice guy just in way over his head

 

a club refresh top to bottom might be quite healthy tbh

Adam Blackmore has stated "there was no organised talk or otherwise from RK to The Saints squad today"

Having endured one of Ralph's motivational speaches I can assure you that the average footballer will switch of after a minute or so. This in addition to a usual monotone team talk from Puel will have been the worse possible motivation for team.

Puel's appointment rang no alarm bells, Black's did. Would like him out of my club, after all he hardly tore up trees in a similar role at Villa, where they played the same soporific disinterested football, and as a manager, well!

Is this the same Blackmore who thought Bertrand had a bad heel?

the video is of a man, appearing to chat casually with what looks like non-playing staff. It hardly appears to support the claims of a motivational speech. Looks like the Echo are trying to make something out of nothing, for a few hits / sales.
