Really? Good luck with that. People still discuss if Adkins should have gone, so expect this to rumble on.
I presume Mauricio will bring in his own coaching staff....though we have shown some loyalty in the past and not allowed all to be replaced....makes sense when you consider our managerial turnover. Presumably Black and co weren't let go at the same time as Puel in case we hadn't signed a new manager by the start of preseason. I assume Watson will stay.
Yes, was wondering same. Guardian article was quite informative & I thought it would confirm or hint on outcome. Maybe it's still under discussion but you would have thought its sorted & agreed Upon with signing of the 3 yr contract.
Strange day today on 3 counts. 1. Saw my cousin for the first time in ages. He said Pelligrino is useless and Will lead Southampton to certain relegation. 2. My cousin later got hit by an 18 wheeler truck. 3. I had my HGV license revoked. A very odd day indeed.
I think we may have made it as a big club now. Just got off the phone with an old friend who said: 1. Who is our new manager? He has never heard of him so he must be useless 2. Our new kit is **** 3. We will do a Pompey and drop to League 2 with the new owners as all Chinese owners are rubbish. A couple of seasons ago he wouldn't have bothered to try and take the piss out of little club nobodies like Saints, when other teams fans start disliking you and trying to take the piss is the sign that you have made it.
Copied this from TSW... His assistant at Alavés was another Argentine called Carlos Compagnucci, who has worked with Pellegrino at his previous three clubs, so I'd imagine he'd be one of them. And there was another called Xavier Tamarit, who also worked with him at Estudiantes, Independiente and Alavés. He also worked with a Fitness Coach called Gabriel Macaya Fernández he's been with Pellegrino at every club he has managed.
Saw a tweet saying these guys would join and Black would go. It was sort of unusual that Puel didn't come with much of a crew
I'm really feeling quite positive about this fresh start, mp sounds to me like a man who knows what he wants and is able to solidify a team. He has my backing (which I understand carries no weight whatsoever)
Surprised we've not had a sit down interview video with him yet, or the pictures of him with the shirt at SMS?
