Southampton legend Matt Le Tissier says Ronald Koeman's appointment has his full support.
The Dutchman succeeds Mauricio Pochettino, now with Tottenham, at St Mary's.
"I think it's a cracking appointment," Le Tissier told the Saints website.
"It was a big blow for the club losing the manager and three players because everybody starts to panic, but a couple of those players have been replaced and hopefully they'll start well to fill the big boots that Adam and Rickie left.
"With Ronald coming in, he's a fantastic name in world football and should attract good players to this football club and that's probably one of the most important factors."
