    It's a shame really, i paid 32 quid to listen to them as i assumed he'd be doing them in English by now, unfortunately that's not happened. Im starting to wonder if he'll ever do them in English to be honest.

    He'd probably be better off continuing to do them in Spanish! Foreign managers always get dragged over the coals for any slight mistakes or peculiar turns of phrases.

    He also gains twice as long to think of his answer.

    I think people on this forum hugely overestimate how much that happens.

    In response to questions, Mauricio said that the Saints Academy is an example for other PL clubs to follow, though you couldn't always repeat success by copying someone else. He did add that Spanish academies were better than English ones, but he had been pleasantly surprised by the enthusiasm and work ethic of British players. He also could see a time when the England side had a core of Saints players since Southampton want to promote home grown players. When asked had the Barnsley game given him any selection headaches, he just said, No. Seemed to confirm that he would mainly persevere with players from first two league games.

    Indeed. There are a variety of pluses for him to stay with the Spanish. It's not as if he must speak English. We know he can, but then he'd be at a clear disadvantage. Frankly, I'm not bothered and it keeps David Salas in a job too.

    Then, when the press guy pressed him further if the team that played out the premier league game from the previous weekend would feature unchanged, he said, could do.

    Love it. Feed them nothing, Mauricio. :)

    Exactly, it's not as if the questions he's asked are difficult to answer. You'd think he'd at least be answering a few in English by now.

    Apologies, I know it's not directly related but does anyone know when the Palace (h) tickets are on sale?

    If I was MP I would like to try out this selection to see if it would increase our creativity but still keeping us strong in midfield.

    Boruc
    Clyne Fonte Lovren Shaw
    Schneiderlin Wanyama
    JWP, Ramirez Lallana
    Osvaldo

    Subs: Davis, Chambers, Yoshida, Davis, Cork, Lambert. Rodriguez

    2-0 Norwich says Lawrenson as Osvaldo doesn't fit in, we have signed lots of players and Poch doesn't know his best team yet.
