Maybe if we all bet on Tuchel he'll become the favourite and then the board will realise there's something in him? #pleasebetuchel

Yeah after that failed "experiment" which saw them only finish second after failing to clinch the title on the final day, they've decided to just stick to top European managers like that...umm... Celta Vigo guy.

I defended Martino on another thread, but the fact is they sacked him. Calling Luis Enrique "that Celta Vigo guy" shows incredible ignorance.

I've already committed to Koeman so if Tuchel gets anywhere Southampton then I'm off to St Mary's with a baseball bat. :p

I don't particularly want to have to create a new avatar but if it means getting Tuchel I will make a personalized one for every poster on here.

Calling him "that Celta Vigo" guy illustrates a point. They've gone for someone less proven than Martino.

Those are other words, I suppose, they bear no relation to what I was saying though.

Do they not? Because what you initially said was that Sampaoli is not remotely qualified for the Saints job. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Guardiola was even less qualified when Barcelona hired him.

How are their situations at all comparable? Guardiola was already working for Barcelona when he was given that job. They didn't have to hire him on the back of his management experience.

What exactly are you trying argue here?

And they gave him the job on what grounds? He was a good mate? All the evidence of his ability as a manager was in the time he spent managing Barcelona B, in a competition less reputable than the Chilean league.

I really don't understand what you're getting at. He was a club legend and they had a chance to observe at length all his qualities as a coach before giving him the job. How is this relevant to Sampaoli?
