If Tuchel was such as great coach then why didnt those players like him?

This is all jolly fascinating but absolutely nothing to do with the topic I was addressing. People can want Puel to leave, as I do, but they can do that without being a tw at about it and sneering at how he can't possibly be a good coach when his career, including a highly respectable year in England, proves that he is clearly competent at worst and excellent at best as he has been in France. I want Puel to leave but that doesn't mean the children on this forum can come out with snidey horsesh it about "if he was such a great coach..". He clearly is, on any measure, anywhere.

All the players loved Steve Wigley and Stuart Gray. What's your point. Whoever we get in to replace him I could n't give a flying fu ck whether the players "like" him or not. That's the approach taken by the managers I admire in football.

Are you twelve years old? You've never seen coaches at managers who have had success at one club/country/level fail at a different one? How long have you followed professional football? The very fact that, despite his issues around language and inspiring the fanbase, he still took us to a cup final and into the top 8 is proof enough that he is clearly at very least a highly competent if not excellent top level football coach. Just so fu cking childish how pathetic people are being about him on here.

Le maître artisan.

If they released that statement your fu cking head would explode.

How many of the eight minutes between them being called, arriving on scene and shooting the perpetrators did the police spend getting permission from the Prime Minister?

A million times this. If only LVG had James Beattie as his assistant this forum would be all over it.

The point is it is Labour party policy to renew Trident, not "his policy". As not a fan of Corbyn at all, at least he has stuck to that party position against his own personal opinion. So, he's backed down in the fairly tame environment of Labour party executive committees, let's take that up several hundred notches into the theatre of war and facing the actual MOD, the actual armed forces chiefs and actual real life decisions. In this pointlessly hypothetical situation that the Question Time droolers were blathering about, any dithering by Corbyn would be overruled by his defense sec, the MOD and the rest of Cobra/War Cabinet/whoever and BOOM BOOM FU CKING BOOOOOOM THERE GO THE GOOOOOKS YES YES YES YES

I think I can comment as I see fit and seeing you pontificate on principle was mildly amusing to me when you were too gutless even hold a point of principle about a pi ss y little football shirt. If you want to quietly sh it your red and white pants about nuclear war with Corbyn in number 10 then crack on. In reality it will make fu ck all difference. It's in the Labour manifesto that Trident will be renewed and it will be. We'll have it and that will be that. Viola, deterrent. No Prime Minister in our lifetime is ever going to press the red button, not May, not Corbyn, no one. You get your rocks of by politicians waving their cocks about over the red button when in reality none of them are ever going to do it anyway.

What am I avoiding you nutcase?

The club got what they wanted = your money for a replica shirt. I imagine you wouldn't press the red button yourself because you'd object that it wasn't red and white striped so therefore you would oh no, it's fine, he's pressed it.

Says the man who started a protest movement about a football kit he didn't like, but still scuttled off to the club shop and handed his money over to buy the effing kit. #principles #spineless #unfittolead

I enjoyed the procession of fat middle aged men desperately willing on the murder of millions of people in a nuclear holocaust. DOITDOITDOIT****INGDOITJEREMY

Bottom threes are always crap. We did not "escape relegation". We were never, at any point in the entire season, anywhere near the relegation battle. Just a few hysterical idiots on forums like this pis sing their pants.

I think I'd spend most of it repeatedly saying "er, can you repeat the question? Synergies with what now?"

Ralph speaks German. He's going to make this b itch happen.

If we appoint Ranieri I will sever off a body part of this forum's choosing.

It's made it into The Sun. The mini-poll on the site is still on a knife edge with only 92% saying he would be a better appointment than Claude. https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/3687981/southampton-new-manager-thomas-tuchel/

That's the last time I go down the pub with him. My contact at the club is going to get sacked for this :-( :-( :'-(

I have a contact very high up in the club who tells me stuff and I've been telling people down the pub for a couple of weeks now. We've been talking to Frank De Boer's representatives and also Schmitt. One of those is very interested the other isn't. I won't say which. Virgil wants out. We were close to signing Samedo but this has fallen through. It could be revived. I know for a fact that my contact is the same as ericb.

Except theyre signing him as first choice but no one here is suggesting we sign him as first choice. Bournemouth still a smaller club/draw than us. Get over it.
