Silva will leave you at the drop of a hat...shady character...his heart won't be in the battle...you don't want him.

I'd go for that bloke at Derby, the one Birmingham sacked.

I spoked to his misses last month. They were looking at a house in the village I live in. I cant really see it happening as Derby might get promoted anyway.
 
Too little too late?
Former Southampton defender Francis Benali on BBC Radio 5 live:

"It is something that has been bubbling away and has been talked about by Southampton fans for a while.

"I think Pellegrino has had a good opportunity to turn things around. It is late in the season, and he perhaps should have gone some time back but Southampton have stuck with him. There have been a few must-win games that Southampton have not won.

"I think the heavy defeat against Newcastle and the manner of it has sealed his fate. They are thinking hopefully it's not too late for someone to come in and turn things around."

BBC Radio Solent sports editor Adam Blackmore:

"Southampton have given Pellegrino every chance to adapt, grow and learn, but they went to Newcastle and for the first time it looked like the players had chucked one in. The first time it looked like they had not played for him and they let him down.

"I think they probably should have sacked him in January after losing at Crystal Palace. It has been toxic at St Mary's for a while now but they have resisted.

"With a three-week gap before the next Premier League game, they realised this was their last chance to make a change as it did not seem they were going to get themselves out of danger as nothing was changing on the pitch."

Yep and we have the players to suit his style, at least in theory, as he should be able to get more out of Boufal, Gabbi, Tadic and Redmond than Pellegrino did.
Plus we should have Austin back just at the right time.
Can't find a negative to his appointment right now.
