Disco Stu

That's not how I heard it. The Athletic claimed his intentions were to stay. https://www.givemesport.com/charly-alcaraz-wants-to-stay-at-southampton/#:~:text=Midfielder Carlos Alcaraz intends to,Kamaldeen Sulemana's future is uncertain. Martin failed to play to his strengths, agreed, but under Selles' direct system, he was our best player. One of the few that made watching us bearable that season.

The two stupid sending offs and subsequent suspensions let down his manager, teammates, fans... and was not worthy of someone wearing the captain's armband. Suspensions for verbal abuse and hair pulling is so unprofessional, he's done nothing but let us down this season.

I can't help but feel annoyed about Alcaraz. You don't sell one of the few players to have shown they can play at this level if you're looking to build a competitive squad. If keeping him meant we couldn't sign BBD, Fraser, Lallana, Wood, Edwards and Taylor, that would have been fine by me. I despised Martin's style of play so losing Alcaraz because he wasn't deemed to fit his slow, indirect system infuriated me. He should be playing for us. Think about the number of times we've lost all potency this season because nobody decent was available to replace Dibling or Fernandes. I expect him to be a £40m player in a year or two now that he's playing in a direct system.

2-0 or 3-0 to Ipswich. I can't decide.

After saying we'd learn from our mistakes from the last time we were relegated, saying it again doesn't hold much weight.

I certainly am.

Because he gets bullied during corners in mens football.

We can't field a decent midfield 3 despite signing 3 midfielders in the summer (Downes, Lallana, Uguchukwu) whilst deciding to sell Alcaraz and we can't field a decent back 3 despite signing 3 centre halfs in the summer (THB, Wood, Edwards). Sport Republic OUT!

Do what I'm doing. Stop going. Stop watching. Out of sight, out of mind.

We've had clearer penalties not given to us.

Bijlow putting on a world class performance against Bayern tonight.

No.

Good decision. He's developing well there and moving him to a promotion contender will only create another Tella situation.

The striker we wouldn't fork out the cash for, Yuri Alberto, looks set to sign for West Ham. Ended his season at Corinthians in electric form. 14 goals in his last 10 games. Rumoured to be £20m.

Seems harsh on Leicester given they're only 2 points off Wolves in 17th. Seems about right for us.

He's not remotely Premier League quality but I assume we're looking at him with next season in mind. Should be a decent addition for the Championship.

Sport Republic out.

Sounds like starting Armstrong and Downes instead of Onuachu and Ugochukwu was a fatal error.

I've given these losers enough of my time today.

Awful touch from Armstrong.

Well this is familiar.

Besides one very inappropriate comment made by Ottowa, the rest were merely stating the obvious. He's severely out of his depth at this level and shouldn't have been Dibling's replacement. At least he'll be a decent squad option in the Championship.

Hopefully he stays longer than 6 months...

I guess that's a good problem for Juric but my feeling is Archer was the better option to bring on after the Dibling injury than Smallbone. I think Archer could thrive in a similar way Sulemana seems to be.

I could hear them all game. Fair play to them!
