I'm sorry you can't come to terms with the sacking of Puel. Give the Samaritans a call.

Fair play to Les Reed. He's got rid of a very unpopular manager. Recruited one who likes to play the sort of football we all love to watch. He has clearly stated that our top players aren't going to be sold this Summer. Good enough for me.

Can't see us selling Bertrand and keeping VVD.

Wonder if Sammy Lee might come back?

I doubt it.

He didn't appoint Poch, that was Cortese.

Stop getting all Charlie Big Spuds you muppet.

If Les gets this one wrong, he's in the sh*t.

If that's the only bright point, I suggest you f*ck off back to Fratton Park you skate c*nt.

To be fair, the quotes may be made up bullsh*t.

The 'quotes' in that article suggest he will have a 'tight' budget, and they would be happy if he got poached a little further down the line like Poch.

I've heard Pellegrino is quite a negative coach. Anyone know? I haven't got a clue.

It's a pretty fair assumption though. Not that it particularly bothers me. Puel had to go regardless.

I'm not sure I buy this line trotted out about a manager's limited input into player recruitment. Koeman was obviously hugely influential in his purchases, as was Puel.

Best kits we've had in years. Excellent.

I disagree.

He did well in the second half of his first season. He played well when called upon last season (Arsenal away, WBA away, Boro away). My point was more to illustrate how badly treated he was by Puel.

Pretty much how I feel about Pellegrino after the (limited) digging around I've done on him.

He was excellent away to WBA, in my opinion, our best player. Next game, not even on the bench. He was treated badly by Puel.

He's not knocking me over, that's for sure.

Would it be fair to compare his tactics and record to Silva's at Hull?

F*cking load of b*llocks.

What is the point of that cartoon sh*t?

Pellegrini would be an outstanding appointment.

Anyone else reckon the timing of this is to give the kit launch maximum publicity? 'Sky live from St Mary's shortly'.
