Ronald Koeman

[Kantareller]

So, is it happening?

This article suggests that Tadic might not be keen to follow him here.

It also has a video of Koeman fuming about Mane turning up late.

I think he'll get shut of any players with the wrong attitude straight away.

I welcome his more strict approach after Martinez's indulgence of certain favoured players. His public shaming of Mane probably ensured the other players turned up in time.

Sorry if already posted, history points to us only getting 2 years out of him, 3 max, decent enough stats though:

Yep true. History also points to us only having got 2 and a half years out of Emery or Mourinho though...

Yeah, just a general observation really, as you say; it's pretty much par for the course nowdays.

He's quite a forthright fella. Even though his agent has sorted out a good financial deal for him it does not mean he will still deffo come. I reckon there is still work to do....

We'll finally have a replacement for Steve Round

Well he's certainly round.

The Esk said yesterday that Koeman had agreed to sign mate.

Koeman is a good move for us. He will definitely improve things. Will he get us into the top four, who knows. But that would be the question of any manager. It appears he was Moshiri's first choice, if we do get him it paints a very good picture. We have a man in charge who goes out and gets what he wants.

Excellent post. Takes over a Southampton team who have had half their players sold and are being talked about as relegation candidates, then brings in new players (admittedly he may not have chosen them all), implements his own systems whilst showing an ability to be adaptable and change tack when necessary, which in turn leads them to Europe in two successive seasons after having more important players sold again after the first season.

People keep saying "oh but he's not a winner manager", do they realistically expect him to have won the league both seasons there? I don't really understand, if he had there is no way we would be getting him and in terms of the results he has achieved it is hard to see how he could have done much better.

I think this is what Moshiri has seen and is why he has gone out and taken the man he believes that with the tools you mention, will be able to challenge the established hierarchy.

As an aside, I feel Emery would of been a great choice too by the way. Think the two we were serious about were head and shoulders above anything else which is a great sign.

Good post mate, i wonder who the majority of people would have chosen Koeman or Raneiri?

Will the midget Sammy Lee come too??

 

[darkwingduck]

Not a bad choice for manager, but not exactly a choice that will get many people excited. I feel indifference towards it.

I've found him on Twitter. Will send abuse later.

He's got a good win rate at Southampton, far better than the ever decreasing one martinez had
