Would Saints job be too big for Still?
English coach Will Still has left his role at French side RC Lens and is now linked to the vacant managerial job at Radio Solent's Adam Blackmore spoke to the Goin' Home with Adam and Jo podcast about his concerns with the 32 year-old, stating: "This is another risk. It might be a great young manager, he has done well for a young man, but the Championship is a beast."He has not managed there before and he did not play at a high level. He started on Football Manager, became an analyst and has done well from there, but I think it is easier to do it at a lower level in football or in different leagues. "Still would be another young and progressive appointment - but what is he going to do when things are going wrong at Blackburn on a Tuesday night? How is he going to react when players don't agree with him? He hasn't played or managed at a level that tells us he can cope at a big club like Southampton in the pressures of the Championship."I don't think the club need to gamble on another 'trendy' appointment. If he does get appointed, I do believe he will adapt his game, but it is a risk."Listen to the full discussion on Still
