DT Posted 24 May, 2017 Share Posted 24 May, 2017 'Southampton, who had been considering replacing Claude Puel, are now reconsidering their options and have cooled their interest in Silva' Does that mean keeping Puel? Good grief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GGalpin Posted 24 May, 2017 Share Posted 24 May, 2017 Why ? For someone who has annual tantrums about a lack of ambition on the board's part, appointing Gordon Strachan would be up there with one of the least ambitious managerial appointments by a PL side any time this decade.

themasoon Posted 24 May, 2017 Share Posted 24 May, 2017 If I remember last year we didn't appoint Rudi Garcia because he wanted to bring all his backroom staff with him. I wonder if after the Eric black experiment we might allow the next manager to bring all their staff with them or even re-approach Rudi Garcia for the job.

Heisenberg Posted 24 May, 2017 Share Posted 24 May, 2017 Pretty sure Puel recommended Black, should be sacked for that alone. Apparently Puel and Eric had an agreement from when Black played in France in 1990 (they had a mutual friend) So while you can respect Puels a man of his word you have to be pretty stupid to risk your job for a pinky promise made nearly 30 years ago. For a number of reasons Puel n Black need and will leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingsbridge Saint Posted 25 May, 2017 Share Posted 25 May, 2017 A bit worried we aren't being linked with other managers. Puel can't stay surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cartman Posted 25 May, 2017 Share Posted 25 May, 2017 A bit worried we aren't being linked with other managers. Puel can't stay surely? Why not? The fans rightly don't get a say in this so if he hasn't fallen out with the squad as some claim and there isn't anyone clearly better available he stays. It has been a fairly mediocre season but not so bad that makes a sacking inevitable. If he goes it will have been like with Adkins, not really anything he has done but there is just someone else better out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next manager will have the same squad, same limitations and will be expected to rotate the squad to showcase our acadamy. I will await the exciting 3 all draws and no or 4-3 defeats and will be pleased to see not a whimper of complaint by the precious bored on here.

SNSUN Posted 25 May, 2017 Share Posted 25 May, 2017 Monk just resigned job at Leeds. Well that's the "cheap" managerial option available, given we'd be paying nobody but him to join. He'd be a decent fit too, young, ex-Saint, good manager that got a rough deal at Swansea. I hope we're looking at better still, but I'd not be unhappy with him. Off topic slightly, I read an article that said we were linked with Graham Taylor when Branfoot left. That true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
