Heisenberg Posted 4 November, 2017 Share Posted 4 November, 2017 Seems we all agree about the future of Pellegrino, but who do we want and need to replace him? Suspect WBA, WHU, Swansea and Everton obviously will be looking at a similar list of managers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pamplemousse Posted 4 November, 2017 Share Posted 4 November, 2017 If we follow the Les Reed pattern of only going for managers not at a club, then that leaves... Koeman - too many bridges burnt? Allardyce - goes against the 'Southampton Way' in every sense Adkins - would be the fans' choice, but hasn't exactly set the world alight since he left us. De Boer - No Laurent Blanc - possible option Luis Enrique - Would he? https://www.transfermarkt.com/trainer/verfuegbaretrainer/statistik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenridge Posted 4 November, 2017 Share Posted 4 November, 2017 I think with the new ownership position along with the precarious standing of Reed then a caretaker-type appointment might be the way to go. If that is the case then I think Adkins would be a great option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Wouldn't be first choice but worth a go until the end of the season. At least knows the club, has some respect for it - Pellegrino seems to have none. Has handled some relatively high profile players as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted 4 November, 2017 Share Posted 4 November, 2017 Given how close we came to (reportedly) appointing FDB in the summer I wouldn’t be surprised if we went for him. Who knows, he could even have been our first choice but chose Palace? We’d be done for sure if we appointed him although we do have the players to play his favoured 3-5-2. Pretty slim pickings but if we could tempt Rogers from Celtic I’d be ok with that. If we want to guarantee survival than get Big Sam but that might set us back from any hope of being top six contenders in the short term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisenberg Posted 4 November, 2017 Author Share Posted 4 November, 2017 If we let Reed pick again we will probably appoint Aitor Karanka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimplex Posted 4 November, 2017 Share Posted 4 November, 2017 I think if both sides swallow their pride than definitely Koeman. Although wouldn't be adverse to Adkins or Pardew either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doddisalegend Posted 4 November, 2017 Share Posted 4 November, 2017 How many PL managers outside the top six are playing attacking football not to many it's all about not getting beat for most of them. As for big Sam we have a team players about as far removed from a Sam's ideal type of player as you could get I doubt he could get anything out of this squad.

Cabrone Posted 4 November, 2017 Share Posted 4 November, 2017 Whoever it is can we please have some attacking football for a change. Don't dislike Allardyce and I think he would keep us up but I don't really think he's a fit for us - I'd welcome Koeman back, thought he did a great job for us and can do another or even Nigel Adkins, at least we'd see some positive football. Personally I'd like a UK manager this time and Eddie Howe or Chris Wilder would be my targets. One thing is for sure, if the consensus is that MP isn't up to it then he needs to go ASAP to give the next person as much time as possible to put things right. Delaying only increases the pressure on the next guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suhari Posted 4 November, 2017 Share Posted 4 November, 2017 Need to stop trying to be clever (i.e. cheap) and go for someone we really want, even if they are in a job...rather than someone available (unless it's Tuchel! - no chance though). And get him now, so he has time to take a proper look before January. Don't see the point of an interim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
