Corberan would have been great

West Brom manager would have been fantastic and fit like a glove too! Cheaped out and paid the price.

Cooper was the weirdest signing EVER. Especially when the owner was so fond of possession football. All the work from last year undone with terrible hire. Could have went for a multitude of guys over him.

Marcelo Bielsa to manage Leicester City after Steve Cooper gets sacked.

As a neutral I was looking forward to seeing Leicester City come up and try and dictate the play vs Premier League teams, it's very very disappointing to see you hire Cooper, knowing you will now give up possession willingly after building all season on it.

30% average possession terrorist ball incoming.

Gotta be more Pep disciples around?

I give you... 49 years old....García Pimienta Former Barcelona reserve player. Former Barcelona Youth and Barcelona B Coach. Current Las Palmas manager. Guided them to promotion the season before last with a 65% average ball possession in the Segunda division. This season his team has finished 16th in La Liga and with 59% average possession, had the second highest average ball control (below Barca, above Real).

Very disappointing.. Maybe Las Palmas manager might be interested?

Saints look way better

All the possession football will amount to about 50% average in the Prem. Maybe it's time to start thinking of alternative ways of playing.

Another manager who plays positional, possession based football like Maresca and Martin.

Watched Leicester vs Hudds, thought you were excellent, a Premier league team. Then watched Liverpool vs Newcastle, the level difference between top 3 in prem and the top championship team is insane.

I can't wait to see Enzo ball in the Prem. 65% average possession so far in the Champ, what you think it will look like in the Prem? 53-54%?

Fascinating to see what your team will look like in the Prem under Maresca. Surely will average 55+ % possession judging on this.
