Lee On Solent Saint

Didn't Armstrong play a chunk of the season coming off the right? Hope we aren't considering playing him centrally again, we know he can't play up top in the Premier.

Be pretty fucked off if we waste one of our loan slots on him. Surely we have better within the club already than him?

Fine, if you think he is good enough. I don't share that opinion, no drama though.

Atalanta or Southampton, the poor lad must be having sleepless nights trying to decide.

Caravan

We need to find him a decent loan move somewhere. Playing under 21's isn't going to be much of a benefit to him.

O'Reilly doesn't work on Sunday's, might be a problem for us

So we can all lose our shit when he starts against Newcastle. Like I said earlier, I think he is a commited player and his passion for us is probably not in doubt, but we all know he isn't good enough.

I get what you are saying, but there does come a time when you have to put quality before sentiment. I loved Yoshida, but we knew we had to move on from him. I would not have put that obligation in to be honest, much rather have told him he can stay for another year, but we wouldn't have renewed after that. That way he could have assessed his options and moved on if he wanted.

People take this thread way too seriously

Deserves? I didn't realise Southampton Football Club was a charity now. I like Stephens, committed player. But hugely limited and in truth should be nowhere near a Premier League squad.

Until he scores a last minute winner against us at St Mary's

The option to renew shouldn't have been included to be honest. We all moaned like fuck when he was brought back into a Championship team, what's it going to be like when he starts the first game of this season? Great lads around the club don't make great players. We've had too many of those in the past.

Hope it is something like that, after agreeing a contract extension with Stephens

We need to be ruthless as a club. We are still giving out contracts to players that are not good enough for the Premier League. Stephens should be moved on even if we don't get a fee for him at the end of his contract.

Would any of them be a miss? Apart from KWP?

Based on that, I would have thought it's an indication that KWP is off.

Lost

What's the keeper situation at Bournemouth? Might be a option for Ramsdale if they do decide if they need a new keeper

Wouldn't be averse to Aribo moving on. Think it wouldn't be too difficult to find an upgrade on him. Only trouble would be finding a buyer for him.

Green

Danny Ings probably one of them

Not sure that can be trumped, I doth my cap to you.

Me too, Ed Sheeran. Fuck that shit.

Understood! Thay makes much more sense
