As I always stated,
the House that Pochetino built, now is a heaven for the big guns of Premiership
to reinforce its ranks with its players and Managers. With Mauricio
Pochettino who made this squad a genuine powerhouse and then moving to Tottenham
and later on Ronnie Koeman lured by Everton.
It shows how this
squad has become the attention netter of many clubs in Premiership.
Even though this club
always exposed to a diaspora of some of its key elements leaving to other
entities, this club known to be a genuine fighter and never quitting in its
ideals for excellence. Still this club always prevails with the talent they
have, as you may recall this is one of the top rated academies in the whole of
Premiership.
Now we have another
era to witness in how well it will fare in the ranks of one of the world’s
greatest and contested leagues, the English Premier League, as Claude Puelan
comes with an impressive CV under his sleeves. His value comes with his
multiple trophies netted during his time in Monaco.
Still the challenge
for the former defensive midfielder comes on a time when the Saints were
seeking a Man that could take the reins in the South Coast as well pursue a
more impacting campaign and have a continuance of his predecessors past
successes.
When this club goes
on a shopping spree, they do not have a spending frenzy but a good eye where
good talent is available and positive results seen. So far, with new faces
coming to Saint Marys Stadium has to reinforce many of the holes left, one
thing this club once again can bounce back as a competitive entity.
The arrival of Nathan
Redmond- Norwich City, Pierre- Emile Hojberg- Bayern Munich, Alex McCarthy-
Crystal Palace and Jeremy Pied- Nice, make out a fine crop of new talent that
will reinforce the ranks of the Saints. As the prospects of more players coming
to Southampton are endless along of its academy development, we may have
another stellar campaign in the South Coast.
For newcomer Saints
Boss Puel his work and challenges ahead will be a handful as one he needs to
combine his current talent with the newcomers alongside of having a continuance
of his former colleagues work, especially in its Academy youth development.
Imagine if Mauricio
Pochettino would continue at the helm of the Saints as well with his player
base, what would happen in these parts of Hampshire, what if we had another
fairy tale story as the one Leicester City had. The only problem the greed of
the big club above has dismantled the foundations of this club and still it keep
on fighting strong all campaign long.
At the end, this club
has an all-around label of a fighter and perseverance club, since its promotion to
Premiership in 2013, tis club has not been in any danger of relegation at the contrary,
considered as a very feisty and hardened squad to play against.
Once gain the Saints
will march in into Premierships spotlights and be considered a tough customer
to beat as well a very competitive squad being formed ahead, now the question
will be for its new Boss how well he will fare in England top league.
So far their
preseason the club as always is showing a lot of promise to front a contested
campaign as well readying to front a challenging opening day against a renewed
Watford at home in Saint Mary’s then going to Trafford and face a renewed Manu
and at home against Sunderland.
