I get the feeling Leslie is an arrogant dictator and Koeman couldn't be assed dealing with a nobody wa**er trying to act big shot and superior.
Let's not forget the interviews Big Les was giving around the time. "The era of the gaffer is over" all his big talk about having "coaches" monitored and a comprehensive list should "coaches" move on. He was downplaying the managers role and wanted us to believe that he had set the way Southampton play the infamous "Southampton way" how we play one style from under 7s to senior. He was telling us how 95% of clubs wlll adopt "his methods"
Les is a clown a wally a football laughing stock. We need shot ASAP.
