Most positive story we are likely to read this weekend. When you rattle off his CV it makes almost all Premier League managers look ordinary less Wenger and Morino! If I were a Spurs fan I'd think Saints had done us like a kipper if Koeman does arrive.
Sherwood was successful at Spurs as he had good players and had to replace a manager who'd lost the team. But, he's fundamentally an idiot. We'd become a regular laughing stock with his interview technique. Not a good enough manager to kick onwards for Saints. Sherwoods appointment would signal a miserable season and mid table finish at best.
Easy. I'd ring up Koeman and say some Canadian Ice Hockey coach had just appointed me manager but as I have no experience in such a role I was wondering if he would like to take over from me for £1m.
And, he has £25m to spend on players.
Just like to congratulate Shaw on the way he has dealt with the transfer rumours to date. He's going to be a true professional. Now understand why he's worth more than Lallana.
He's got a long way to go before he regains anyone's trust. He was still done like a kipper by Liverpool. Still, I guess if he was to make Lambert the only loss to Liverpool this summer, he might regain some credibility.
