:saints:šŸ•“ Saints' next manager

Sure, but if we want to make the next step we need to be attracting the Messis and Ibrahimovics not the Pelles and Davis if you know what I mean.

Not that I’m saying those 2 are bad players it’s just we need better players not the same players!!

pap can you change my username to boersy pls

no we just need more players like that…especially as they don’t tend to stick around too long. We’re not going to attract bigger names than the ones we have done (at the moment). We need to spot talent that others have missed or don’t want to gamble on, improve them and then sell them. De Boer has way more caps than Koeman and is just a big a name. We wouldn’t struggle attracting good players with him, I think we might with Howe.

I know what you mean, but that’s more like the final step than the next step.

We’re not landing Messi or Ibra anytime soon. Realistically, we’re a mid-sized club in a provincial city, doing well.

I’ve stood in St. Mary’s plenty of times and bemoaned a lack of quality or inspiration, so I do agree that raising the overall quality of the squad is important. Fuck, I’d even love a super-star, but if you think RK is getting overpaid to make the drop to Everton, the figures for a club like us to land a player like that would be astronomical.

de Boersy.

i’ve changed my mind, he can change his name to de bear pls

Former Watford boss Quique Sanchez Flores is back in work. He’s the new Espanyol boss: http://bbc.in/1WG9csH

Beat me to it BBB.

Shame, he’s so darn stylish.

Yes, I’m putting looks near the top of my priority list. Deal with it.

hmmm, he doesn’t look so good in that photo. I’m glad he’s gone somewhere else.

maybe we should forget about the managerial or even football related experience and just pick someone sexy. No women though, we’re not gay.

You’ve got a point though Fatso, maybe Saints should be leaders in the field and appoint the first Female PL manager!!

Lou’s out of work.

Probably.

well, I did actually say no women, but if you insist on this line then I’d go for Eva Caneiro our whatever her name is. The ex Chelsea doctor. She must have picked up some footballing knowledge from Jose. It means we can save wages as she can double up as manager and doctor/physio. Adkins used to be a physio and he’s the best manager.saints have ever had. She’s attractive as well, which, lets not forget, is the main criteria.

Fenerbahce’s Vitor Pereira latest name in frame for # saintsfc job. Has won titles in Portugal and Greece and has wealth of euro experience.

No thanks. Will be disappointed with anyone other than de Boer at this point.

Eddie Howe? - do me a fucking favour!

(I’ll delete this one when he wins us the title)

what… Has he been appointed??

It is never going to be Eddie or Nige. It will be another football man. Ball on the deck passing it about. A player who has won plenty as a player.

I just have a feeling for De Boer!
