The Brisbane born Australian coach joined the club in July 2013 after the departure of previous manager Mauricio Pochettino resigned due to personal issues. Jason Taylor, 25, spoke of how he wishes to continue Southampton's project of growing as a club using young players with a strong passing football philosophy.
Owner Liebherr has spoke how she is very pleased the Australian Head Coach will be remaining at the club for another two years. She said how she is pleased with how Jason Taylor has taken on their previous style of play and philosophies of playing young players and carrying it on.
