I agree with your sentiment but he still has a point. The stick we get from the media for sacking managers is a joke. We should have the same expectations as Southampton if you take away our league title. With it, considering the position we were in, we should expect more.

kyleolly Posted 20 October 2017 Share Posted 20 October 2017 Judging him on 1 dull season at Southampton were he did pretty well I don’t know what you lot expect, our next manager needs to be a tactical genius, with a great outgoing personality who has been extremely successful in the premier league!

He needs to entertain. I'm not bothered about anything else. This bloke doesn't on recent evidence. Try to score goals and relegation won't be a worry.

I think you'll find it was all down to Esteban Cambiasso who saved Southampton in 2007, and he was the man who managed us to promotion from League One and the Championship, even though he was playing for Inter Milan at the time............................

Samilktray Posted 20 October 2017 Share Posted 20 October 2017 Looking at Wikipedia he won the league with Monaco and took Lyon to the semis of the champions league. He's obviously got something or had something about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah! He just needs to win. (preferably with attractive attacking football). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 20 October 2017 Share Posted 20 October 2017 Southampton were fairly decent to watch under Koeman so something changed drastically when Puel took over. I dunno, this sort of appointment doesn't ever excite me and I could imagine us struggling to relate to him which would mean very little tolerance when things go iffy and then another new manager being needed.

Alf Bentley Posted 20 October 2017 Share Posted 20 October 2017 "Puel" sounds like the noise that a Frenchman would make after sniffing a particularly ripe slab of brie. I have no knowledge or opinions about this man, but thought I'd share that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we binned our manager after finishing 8th we'd get annihilated by the media. We can't even sack a manager for being in the bottom 3 ffs. Spot on! Getting tired of pundits who nothing about this club saying we have delusions of grandeur firing people because we are not top of the league when in reality in both cases we were in the bottom 3. I don't remember Palace getting any grief for firing their boss after six games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnderbyFox Posted 20 October 2017 Share Posted 20 October 2017 On the fence about this one - would be a lot better than some of the others names banded about (Coleman, Pardew etc) http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11700/10875900/eden-hazard-insists-claude-puel-is-one-of-the-top-managers-amid-southampton-sack-reports Quote Eden Hazard insists Claude Puel is up there with the best managers in the game and has credited him with a hand in making the attacker the player he is today.

The 2 games against them last season they totally dominated us. The 0-0 at home was an abomination of a game. They controlled the game and at the end we were hanging on for a 0-0. At home. The 3-0 away defeat was peak Ranieri losing the plot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does he really need to entertain the year we won the league we weren’t entertaining at all in the second half of the season but week in week out we got the job done i’d Take points on the board over entertainment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a lot of “Well who do they think they are?” going on when he was sacked, plies they didn’t score in 6 of their last 7 home matches which I think any set of fans would have the right to feel aggrieved with. I mentioned his name yesterday, not as somebody who’d I want but he’s a better option than Pardew etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I said that in my first post about him, probably the reason we're interested in him. A case of ooooh who's absolutely ripped us apart before? Let's go for him.

nnfox Posted 20 October 2017 Share Posted 20 October 2017 Our squad isn't consistent with his brand of football. Not saying he is a bad manager but he won't have a clue what to do with all our attacking options. It's a NO from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
