Ralph Hasenhuttl's trusted colleague makes good point for Southampton's revival | OneFootball

Time and again, Southampton has committed management mistakes. Positively, it is to change soon as new appointment Johannes Spors makes a crucial Saints comeback claim.

It's been over 2 years since Ralph Hasenhuttl bid farewell to St. Mary's. Quite a long time, right? Shockingly, still, he remains the last Southampton boss to have seen off a Premier League season without relegation.

While sacking him felt like an apt decision back then, the Saints fans gradually realize the Austrian's importance.

But this in itself is a lesson for Southampton that sometimes success requires just sticking to your trusted names. That's why, the club's decision to appoint Hasenhuttl's ex-colleague Johannes Spors is seen as a positive step in the club's Top Flight revival.

Still, it will not be easy given Southampton's current situation.

For an appreciable turnaround, it's time the club halts out their routine of churning managers frequently. Instead, they need to lay a foundational level of squad planning in the new Southampton project.

And who better than Johannes Spors to achieve this mammoth task? But, it comes at the cost of meticulously trusting and following each and every verdict of the 42-year-old ahead.

Well, a change begins at present. Recently, in his first official speech as Southampton's football director, Spors presented an important point for the Saints' upward trajectory.

Johannes Spors demands tactical stability at Southampton ahead

As quoted by the Daily Echo, Spors expressed his disapproval of the club's previous practices, saying: "What happens often is that clubs change a manager in the past without really defining what style of play they want to have."

Now, if you remember, that's what boss Juric had hinted at days ago. Despite being months since Russell Martin left, Southampton's playstyle and mentality didn't move on from the Scot.

And it's result? A mixed tactical identity that has been struggling for months now.

Just realize it, Johannes Spors is expected to fix issues like this at Southampton next. Now, the future is unknown, but still, we expect the German to succeed in this challenge. After all, optimism is what fuels us Saints fans.
