Southampton: Ivan Jurić wants to base his game on… death metal

Since last Saturday, Southampton have had a new coach: Ivan Jurić. After Torino and AS Roma, the Croatian coach joins a third bench during this year 2024. He will be responsible in particular for maintaining the Saints in the Premier League. A mission which promises to be perilous since the promoted club currently occupies 20th and last place in the English championship, with only one victory to its credit. To achieve this feat, Jurić intends to rely on a fairly atypical game, which he describes as “ death metal “.

“ When I was young I really liked death metal music and I think my style of football resembles that style of music. Now I like it a little less, I’m a little softer now, but it’s still in my head, good metal music. I think (the players) can do it. They are young, they are positive, they want to work hard. It’s not easy to change the style (of the team) immediately, but we have to be smart. Don’t throw away what they did in the past, but try to put other things in place », indicated, during his first press conference, the one who succeeded Russell Martin and who signed up for 18 months at Southampton. Let’s see if he will have the opportunity to offer this style of play, against West Ham, this Thursday during Boxing Day.
