Mr Saints

Ralph admitting he picked Armstrong who is completely ineffective in that role away at a top 6 side, over Adams because “he scored more in pre-season”. We’re fucked aren’t we.

Being shit.

Hero. The best 1 million pounds we've ever spent, and ever will spend.

It says it all that Valery and Djenepo are starting in our defensive unit for a Premier League opener. Jesus wept. and Salisu… useless, he could have done 59 other things rather than the one he chose for the OG. Body shape, technique, mindset woeful. The only positive was Lavia who looks a player.

Nixon is the one that said KWP was valued at 3 quid a few weeks back. Non story.

We're loaning him to Goztepe.

Harry Winks

Good news. Although Talksport's source is Alex Crook!

Maybe Dennis at Watford?

Believe we've been linked with Brownhill before, good player.

Fingers crossed. I for one wouldn’t miss his gormless arms out wide in disbelief pose after another one goes in off his back.

I reckon he’s a moneyball signing that Ankersen has been tracking. Probably has all the physical attributes and Saints feel the technical attributes can be improved, here or out on loan.

JWP was completely non committal about his future on media duty yesterday, thank god we sorted that contract last year. If he did go, I’d bite your arm off for 17th place.

Would prefer an experienced GK to come in and be number 1 from the off, but that wouldn’t be very Saintsy. Good luck to the lad anyway.

Jesus wept

Yes please. Experience and leadership - just what we need next to Salisu.

Not sure we can expect an "experience" when we have a PA system that can't be heard by 95% of the stadium.

Interesting move. Wouldn’t be surprised if the owners have an eye on one of the new coaches stepping up if/when Ralph is sacked 10 games into next season, assuming we’re struggling.

If we’re sacking the backroom staff (rightly so) then we’re sacking Ralph too. I can’t see him being in charge for the new season, just my opinion.

I would take anything under 5. The thought of Mane and Diaz running at Bednarek and Salisu isn't too comforting.

Sander Berge cdajfu

What we need to do: clear out the coaching staff (including Ralph) and half the squad. Bring experience and leadership into the squad. What we will do: none of the above.

Shows how shit we are that Everton will likely now finish above us.

Ange Postecoglu or Steve Cooper

Relax everyone, I did one of those score predictors this morning and basically entered the worst possible outcome for each fixture, we end up staying up on goal difference above Leeds. You're welcome.
