Well obviously until somebody is appointed that would be the case.

As they are now clearly on 3rd choice, do you not think they run the risk of shooting themselves in the foot with this approach? seems a bit amateurish to me to keep moving your targets because you keep getting knocked back as they have so far by Mourinho and Koeman.

How is waiting for your first choices amateurish? Amateurish would be to appoint the people who want the job rather than appoint the people YOU want to take the job.

We waited for Jose, pipe dream or not, he probably gave us the come on big time, who wouldnt wait for that to pan out? Then we moved on to Koeman, I say moved on, im pretty sure we were talking to both at the same time, now Koeman has indicated he wants to hold on for a bigger job, which for the record, makes me want Southampton to get relegated so much.

So now we move to our next target which appears to be Emery, all the while we know we have Pellegrini and De Boer sitting there in reserve.

No complaints from me how we have done all this, clearly im not privy to the process and only have esk and other peoples word for everything, but again, zero complaints from me how we have gone about the whole thing.
 


I'm disappointed that Koeman has chosen to stay at Soton, and I think he's made a massive mistake personally, as I don't think he'll be able to equal or better what he's already achieved there this season. Which means his stock will fall, and his dreams of Arsenal or whoever, might end up being at the level of fantasy come next summer.

He'd have been a perfect fir for us imo, but hey ho.

I'd like Emery, but I just can't see that one coming off tbh. Why turn down CL football next season and turn his back on his hero status at Sevilla to take over us?

Hope I'm wrong like.
