Brazillian manager, won the Copa America with them as well as a few other things. I think heās managed them a few times and most recently took over after the 2014 World Cup, I believe, but was sacked this year.

So for me the new manager has a hard job we have good players but this year we have the europa league so six extra games i guess the league cup will be a chance for the kids to play although we go in at quite a late stage with our euro qualification.
if im honest pellegrinin if he wants the challenge would be great but otherwise let it me a manager who can settle the quad on his reputatioon and bring in excitinefg new player we really need a statement signing to let the rest of the players know we mean business pellegrini ineacho and redmond the dream summer

Iād be surprised if we can bring someone in who will improve on where we are in our third summer of change, and their first season.
This will frighten those people who think we are Man Utd or Liverpool, but for me itās time for consolidation in the top 8-10, make sure the structure of the club still works, and to make sure that the academy is firing on all cyclinders.
Iād like someone who can not just build a team but also make the club stronger, a year from now.

Your right new manager or even the old manager would not get us 6th again next year unless a couple of the big clubs really mess up again. 7th or 8th would be great but 9th or 10th not the end of the world.

I had a Strange passing moment today that it may be Paul Clement ex Derby, but he must have been scared off and immediately signed as assistant manager for Bayern Munich

In my Football Manager game I have been Saints Manager for 10 years and won the league ten times, and the Champions League like 6 times and the FA cup like 8 times and the League cup like 10 times, but I canāt get the England job cos Paul Clement keeps winning World Cup, and they wonāt fkn sack him.
Fkn MLG.

Right oh, I see. Youāre happy to take all the credit when Juanmi scored 35 goals in his first Saints Season, but when I pull you up on the unrealistic managerial ability of Paul Clement, you get all slopey shouldered on me. Not my fault mate, talk to Miles Jacobson. Well I will, mate. Iām gonna send him a strongly worded email, and I wonāt hesitate to cite you personally, and ur poor customer service, amongst my list of grieviances.
You have been warned. We Want Clement Out.
Edit: I wonāt do any of them things really, Iām only playing. Any idea how I can get Paul Clement sacked tho? Is there any way I can plant tabloid stories of him + underage hookers, or something like that?

My source is obviously keeping a close eye on Sotonians then. 
I text them last night to ask if they had anything fresh for me. Did not get a reply.
Still nothing when I got up today. Whilst feeling like a jilted lover, I resisted the urge to send another text, but by lunchtime, my willpower broke, and I fired off another question.
Just got a text back in the last hour that simply said:
āSorry for the silence. Canāt say anything else just yet, but Noel Edmonds is a good shout. Will call you later.ā
I wondered what the fuck they were on about. Now all is clear.

I dont get the āsettle for 14thā if we won a cup stuff as it would be indicative of a regressionā¦ (see Portsmouth) it is possible to win cups when improving and developingā¦ Silverwear will come when we are strong enough as a squad and are playing our best footballā¦ if we chose a strategy of gradual organic progress. Throwing that away for a cup seems more about showing off to rivals, than it does about anything else?

omg theyāre prob reading bout my Football Manager achievements! If they do ask for my number i donāt mind you giving it out jack srs. Not saying Iām 100% interested, but Iām willing to have the discussion.

I think itās fair to say that this is probably what is causing the hold up in making a decision. The Board have clearly seen your phenomenal record of success and taken a keen note of your managerial prowess Bearsy. Probably decided that even though someone of Pellegriniās stature has declared their interest ā that anyone that can conjure 35 Premier League goals out of Juanmi deserves some serious consideration.
