"I think he'd be a brilliant fit for Rangers."Man-management is probably one of his strongest points. Everyone at Swansea loved playing for him. He's honest with his players, he tells them what he needs."Trundle, who starred for Swansea and now enjoys an ambassadorial role for the club, added: "You need to get the right players in for the way he wants to play. It's football from the back to front, fans need to be patient at times with the build-up."I don't think he has a plan A or a plan B, it's just the way he sees football. He thinks that is how the game should be played and he sticks with it."When you get it right, there's no one better to watch."At Southampton, when they were losing games, of course fans are going to be frustrated. He did really well with them to get them to the Premier League but then you go up another 100 steps."
