He might just announce that he aint continuing at amsterdam

Yep, thats what will happen.

Suspect he may even sign for Valencia then also, but he wont be saying anything about us this week.

We are basically waiting till the games on Sunday.

Cos

a) we have a manager
b) If United get 4th we will hunt Jose with a passion
 
There is a risk with anyone we get but I also said I understand you shouts for Keoman yet he seems unlikely to leave Southampton and wants to continue his good work that he has done and the last thing Southampton need is him leaving just like Pochettino did after his good work, so I think he will stay there.

Koeman said yesterday he was 'proud to be Southampton manager' and he looked like he genuinely meant it
 
What kind of timeframe are we looking at here ?

Three years ago, even though it was known that Moyes would be leaving, as I remember Kenwright waited till he was actually out of the door before inviting applications, and then there was what felt like a long process of interviews and second interviews, though I don't suppose the interviews lasted much more than a week.

So here's the worry : the Board wait till after the Norwich game, then there's maybe more meetings, finally we get an announcement, then it could be let's say another 3 weeks after that before we get an appointment, by then the Euros will be starting so the new manager will be powerless to do anything much until the Euros have finished, by then we're in July.

You never know if our board has already made their decision

Not a chance I reckon.

Will be announced/in place asap once Roberto packs his bags. Which which will be 9.00 am next Monday.

I reckon.

4th might be irrelevant.
 

Koeman will leave Southampton, hes utterly fuming with them selling all their players.
He was having a moan in the rags this morning that he wants assurances that Saints will keep their players before he commits to a new deal.

He's clearly unhappy with the "support" he gets there.

And some don't think he'd jump at the chance of coming here and being backed with Moshiri's millions!

I dont think they have, I think they will wait as long as it takes to get Jose, now of course theres always the danger that we would lose other desired targets and its a major, major gamble, but I think the landscape will be clearer all round in 10days time.
