Hatch Posted 11 February, 2009 Share Posted 11 February, 2009 Pretty un Saints related, dont you think? Pearson is a big admirer of our players and the first thing he will do is buy BWP and DMcG and maybe let us have Crouchie and the other fella in return.

Big Ron fan Posted 11 February, 2009 Share Posted 11 February, 2009 (edited) I think you'll find that he's much too sensible to swap Mandaric and Leicester (on the way up) for Gaydamak and Pompey (which could all fall apart at any time, particularly if they are relegated).

itchen Posted 11 February, 2009 Share Posted 11 February, 2009 pompey are very interested in nigel for their new manager! Really? You think that, with all the managers with Premiership experience available, they'd go for someone who managed a few games in the Championship last season and is this year managing (admittedly doing well) in League One? I think not. Pompey have far too many highly paid "stars" who wouldn't respect someone with his CV. Look at what happened to Adams. I've no doubt that if Pearson manages to get Leicester up then bigger clubs will take notice. But not now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHAPEL END CHARLIE Posted 11 February, 2009 Share Posted 11 February, 2009 Pompey would be well advised to consider Nigel Pearson as he's a bloody good manager (regardless of the minority view on here) - just can't see it happening at this time to be honest .

Andy_Porter Posted 11 February, 2009 Share Posted 11 February, 2009 lol better for him to stay at leicester than go to the prem gets better Why? What's the point in leaving a club where he's on the up and doing well to join a club who are in trouble where he will probably fail to keep them up and end up losing his job. The only good thing would be the extra income and the small chance he could keep them up, even then I don't think Pompey have a sustainable level of income to stay in the Premiership for long. He's clearly a talented manager but there is definatly a case of moving up the ladder too quickly, just look at Ince, he was doing really well at MK Dons but moved straight to the Premiership. He would have been better staying with MK Dons and helping them achieve promotion to the CCC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thedelldays Posted 11 February, 2009 Share Posted 11 February, 2009 Why? . why should luggy have left plymouth for us..? why should ince have left MK Dons for blackburn..? they are in the business of bettering themselves...if he had any ambition he would take the job (not that it would be offered) as he would have some very good players there and if he was as good as some on here make out then he would keep them up and in turn attract attention fro better clubs. I thought pearson would "go far"...no he should turn his nose up at a prem team with a few very good players....just to (wait for it) have acrack at the CCC next season...?

Andy_Porter Posted 11 February, 2009 Share Posted 11 February, 2009 If he was offered (i don't think he will be) then he probably would take it altough like I said it would be the wrong decision. He clearly isn't ready for Premiership football yet, let alone being the 3rd manager in a season for Pompey it's just never going to end well. Wether he joined Pompey or stayed with Leicester the chances are he'd be in the Championship next season. I don't think any sensible Saints fan would think Pearson is suddenly ready for the Premiership at this stage in his career, a few more seasons in the lower leagues and maybe a promotion to the Premiership would do him well. Chucking a manager straight in at the deep end rarely works out well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds a bit like Paul Ince though doesn't it. Managers succeed and fail on a fairly random basis. Some succeed far more than they fail. Players in our time are very difficult to handle,some just can't hack it although their general management skills may be excellent.I've noticed that some who avoid a certain type of player have a higher success rate than others.

You make a good point regarding players being difficult to handle . From what I can see NP's man-management skills are his strongest asset , the hand round the shoulder for Simon Gillett , the obvious total commitment he extracted from the entire team at the end of last season for instance . Players believe in and want to play for this man , that's half the battle . As he climbs the football ladder he will come across more of the 'big name' high maintenance players so commonly found in the Premier League - how he handles these independently wealthy players with their delicate ego's may well determine how far Pearson goes in the game .

rallyboy Posted 11 February, 2009 Share Posted 11 February, 2009 So is Mandaric likely to cheerfully wave goodbye to his all-conquering manager so that the arms dealer can take him? Looks like a pricey move if it happens, and I think he did great for us but he isn't exactly Mr Instant Fix now is he. Anyway I thought Pompey were going for a dream team of Sven, Venables, Souness, Shankly, Sir Alf Ramsey, Ghandi and Mandela? - Or was that pr spin covering up the fact that they don't have two pennies to rub together? They had to look down the back of the sofa to pay off Adams, and will be praying that they scrape a point in the next game to justify sticking with the cheap caretaker team. I can really see a big name leaping at the Pompey opportunity now when Newcastle and Chelsea could be available in the summer...Pompey are so backward, we started off down this insane route years ago, they are always playing catch up and though they are pushing hard with a mental wage policy, I bet we still beat them to financial collapse.

DT Posted 12 February, 2009 Share Posted 12 February, 2009 I think they'll go for Curbishley and their denials about having already met up with him (and his own) were orchestrated lies. Either that or Sven will get the chop for being crap and suddenly be interested in where Portsmouth is on a map. It's the bit marked shiiitehole.
