Fabrizio Romano's intriguing Postecoglou update has the potential to start a manager merry-go-round which is in the best interests of Southampton fans.
So far, the whole week has revolved around Russell Martin reaping the rewards of his commendable Saints job with a switch to Rangers. Simply put, it's well deserved but not every manager enjoys this fate in the present English football landscape.
Going by Fabrizio Romano's recent comments, there's no one better than the recently dismissed Ange Postecoglou to prove this point.
Honestly, manager re-shuffling is one of the harshest aspects of football and the Saints also know what happens when that tactical luck starts running out. Nevertheless, a crucial positive is still in store for the Saints which was otherwise deemed to disrupt their Championship season.

So, last month Tony Pulis sent a massive Ipswich Town warning to Southampton and every other second-division outfit. The reason? Their invaluable asset Kieran McKenna whom they had retained even after watching their Premier League status fade away before the start of May.
I know Southampton amassed four league points against them in the previous campaign but that can't lead the club to underestimate them.
The two teams have been going neck to neck over the past two years, meaning the Saints can't afford a relaxed approach in league fixtures as long as McKenna is guiding their promotion challenger's ship.
Now, coming to the optimistic part, Southampton and McKenna might not even cross paths this time. That's because the Football Insider has hinted about Brentford's Thomas Frank filling Postecoglou's void in London as well as McKenna carrying over Frank's consistent mid-table reputation at Brentford.
Indeed, that's an exciting turn of events Southampton didn't see coming. Maybe the Saints are in line to receive a stress-free season for once, right after one of their most gruelling campaigns in a while.
