There's an easy way out for him. When he left after the Croatia campaign Poch was still in charge, uncertainty etc.
He can simply come back, say he is inspired by Koeman, sees a clear vision for the club and the majority of Saints fans will accept it if his performances are comparable to last year. Clearly he is a passionate guy and I have some sympathy with his questioning of 'who is the man'?.
What he said was nothing short of scandalous, but take the emotion out of it and I'd like to see him lining up for us August 15th.
