hypochondriac Posted 21 February, 2023 Share Posted 21 February, 2023 Also worth saying I'd absolutely love us to unearth a decent manager from within our ranks. Somehow it feels so much better when that happens and you have a greater connection with the manager in the same way that you do with an academy talent. 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It feels like even if we were to go down now he's someone you want to give a chance to and you want success for the club but also for him as well because it seems like he deserves it. A small part of me resented any success that Jones got and that's a horrible feeling to have about your club. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saintwbu Posted 21 February, 2023 Share Posted 21 February, 2023 I’m really hoping we’ve found the answer. As mentioned above he’s extremely likeable, he’s brought an optimism to the fanbase overnight, it would be a great story if he really does have what it takes. Also would be a nice sprinkling of irony if the manager who can get a tune out of our inexperienced team is the one with no managerial experience! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint_clark Posted 21 February, 2023 Share Posted 21 February, 2023 I'm working nights at the moment so maybe I'm just a bit groggy, but there was a question in his post match conference that I'm sure didn't make any sense? "Wins for Bournemouth and Everton today, if you'd lost you'd have been 7 points from safety, as it ended up you're only 2..." That...doesn't add up surely? Someone tell me I'm not losing it. Nevermind the fact we're actually 3 points from safety and if we lost we'd have been 6... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chez Posted 21 February, 2023 Share Posted 21 February, 2023 I don't want to put too much of a dampener on the whole Selles is our saviour thing (it's great to have something positive to talk about), but Chelsea did still dominate us in the second half and we had to ride our luck to get the victory. On another day, that luck may have been out. They didn't score, and some good defending was the reason for that, but I am not sure we had a lot of `control' of the game in the second half and if the cross to Mount is six inches lower he has a free header inside the six yard box. Preventing that opportunity wasn't down to good defending, it was just our day. That said, it's players that play the game. All the manager can do it pick the right side, give them the tactics, motivate and make good in game decisions. He seemed to get all those things right. We certainly looked an awful lot better in the first half and that victory has brought us some hope, but maybe see how we do in a few more games before we give him the job full time. He can't do worse than Jones, but let's see if he can put out the right team and tactics to beat Leeds. If players make mistakes we can then argue whether that was down to the manager picking the wrong guy or the player just being human and doing what they always do - make errors. Question: Why didn't the board appoint Selles after Ralph? From the outside, he always seemed like the natural successor and a number 2 just waiting to become a number 1. Why didn't they believe in him? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why didn't they believe in him? I'd counter that by saying we probably had the best chance of the whole game in the 2nd half, if Adam Armstrong gets a tiny bit luckier there or Kepa is a tiny bit slower getting out we probably score. I'd also reckon had our player tackled with a dangerous high foot like that he'd have got sent off, so overall I'd say if you are talking luck then Chelsea had a decent bit as well. Plus that is a Chelsea team that has had near £500 million spent on it in the last 6 months, mainly in attacking areas, if one attacker is misfiring they have multiple other quality players to bring on so they were always going to create chances, but in the end they didn't create that much. Also got to remember this is a team that last week lost whilst 1-0 up to a much worse and 10 man Wolves team, they were going to be nervous so a lot of credit has to be given to him for not only being brave with the way we played but also picking the players up from last weeks embarrassing defeat and getting them to show the courage and fight again because they must have been at a very low ebb last week. Don't think anyone is saying give him the full time job now, till the end of season seems fine and see if he can earn the permanent spot, but lots of positive signs there already after just one week and one game. To answer your last question I can only presume experience, he hasn't really managed a senior team, he's just been part of various coaching set ups. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the outside, he always seemed like the natural successor and a number 2 just waiting to become a number 1. Why didn't they believe in him? Don't know the answer to that. What i would say though is like all things footy (manager choices, player transfers) there is an element of timing, luck and situation about them which means the same player/manager can be more or less of success by doing the same things. Picking up the club after Jones with a clear need to pull together may be an easier situation for him to join than after ralph leaving. Not an easier job to get the points needed but after Jones the club was ripe for being galvanised. Not belittling this approach in the short time but the fans are on side immediately following Jones, backed up with a great result admittedly. After Ralph, even though it was time to go, would he have been seen as anything other than the cheap option and would the players have rallied in the same way? Dunno the answer to that question either but sometimes things work out in football that are simply situation and I'm hoping the start of his management career at saints works like that! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selles said in his presser that he wanted the job after Ralph, so I guess he was just overlooked. I'm happy if we give it to him for the rest of the season. He seems confident and capable. The previous two managers have tried pretty much every formation and failed to get a tune out of the players, so returning to the 442 (or 4-2-2-2 of you prefer) makes sense and he knows it as well as anyone. I wonder how we would all have felt if we had turned to him as the manager after Ralph. With Grey and Wigley both being disasters, I suspect there would have been a fair bit of apprehension. With hindsight, he simply could not have done worse than Jones, but we obviously all hoped for better than Jones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saintwbu Posted 21 February, 2023 Share Posted 21 February, 2023 It’s a lot easier to be accepted after Jones than it would’ve been after Ralph.

Saint Fan CaM Posted 21 February, 2023 Share Posted 21 February, 2023 (edited) Sure we were up against it in the 2nd half as Chelsea threw everything at us and the Ref did his bit too, but I believe you make your own luck sometimes and that’s what I saw from our team…they fought for every ball…put bodies on the line…and put in a really courageous battle for their gaffer. That’s what a relegation scrap requires and who knows, we might still go down, but we definitely will do without those sorts of performances. Selles IS the real deal.

derry Posted 21 February, 2023 Share Posted 21 February, 2023 I think the interview process should last a bit longer. The positive doubt may act as an incentive to both Selles and the players who want him to have the job to nail a few top performances and hopefully results. Bournemouth did really well with a caretaker but the performances then fell off when he was given a contract. Let him know the contract is his to obtain provided we show that the early performances are no flash in the pan. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
