"Even though he spoke to us through an interpreter, we immediately understood his way of thinking and what he wanted on the pitch. His training sessions transformed us physically my legs had never felt so strong. Pochettino changed the way I thought about football."
"My best experience was with Pochettino, but Ancelotti's man management was striking. I was impressed by Mourinho's training sessions, his frankness and the clarity of his analysis. I didn't play for him much, but thought he was a top coach, and he's not as defensive as people say."
Morgan Schneiderlin moved from Strasbourg to Southampton and made over 230 league appearances. Mauricio Pochettino replaced Nigel Adkins in 2013 and brought a strong aura and clear tactical ideas despite limited English. Pochettino's training sessions increased players' physical strength and altered Schneiderlin's approach to the game. Schneiderlin's progress earned moves to Manchester United and Everton and selection for the French national team. He also worked under Carlo Ancelotti, Jose Mourinho, Didier Deschamps and Louis van Gaal, praising Ancelotti's man management and Mourinho's training and analysis. Later moves included Nice, Western Sydney Wanderers, Konyaspor and Kifisia, ending with FA Cup and Europa League wins and 15 France caps.
