Chairman of Southampton Nicola Cortese was quite cagey in today’s press conference
Sky Sports is on the phone to Southampton favourite and Sky Sports pundit Matt Le Tissier
Matt thanks for joining us tonight.
“You’re Welcome”
We don’t want to take up much of your time so we ask have you any idea who is linked with your former club.
“There is a host of names linked with the Saints, Alan Shearer, Nigel Adkins and even myself but I’m hearing reports that we’re targeting an unknown named manager who has been an understudy to the Special One and AVB. A promising untried manager in who people firmly believe he has what it takes just has not been given the opportunity. I myself hope we give the young lad a chance due to the fact he has glowing reviews from his former employee’s.
Well I’ve got to be going thanks for having me.”

We are at the press conference called by Mr Cortese.
Mr Cortese why do we keep meeting like this?
*With a crackling smile from ear to ear*
The Southampton board is delighted to have secured the services of 36 year old Nic Adams. This young manager and his agent sold us over his plans for our club and look forward to seeing where Mr Adams will take us in the future” May I present to you Mr Adams.
Mr Adams you have just been given your first managerial position, how are you feeling?
“I’m humbled to be offered this position. Southampton are in the premier division in the world and I look forward to the task at hand”
What sort of manager do you plan to be?
“ I’ve learnt from the best as in Jose The Special One Mourinho. I’ve learnt after being his shadow all those years how to use the special touch to get the results and stay at the top. With this great Football club there is endless amounts of potential just waiting to be used.”
Unlike Mourinho you have a limited budget how do you plan to deal with that?
“Jose doesn’t need a budget to be special. Neither do I, That will be all Thank you.”
There you have it. 24 hours has passed and Southampton have lost and signed a new manager. Best of luck to him.
