Viking Saint

He covers the entire back line, not that we ever got to see it. With 70+ caps for Uruguay, I'd still maintain he'd've been better than what we've currently got

And we signed Caceres, played him once and then released him. Tidy enough for Lazio, but surplus to requirements here. Go figure....

Does anyone genuinely know whether there are relegation release clauses or financial reductions in the players contracts?

Bates, Channon, Lambert, MLT

Completely untested at English level and not a name that's going to draw players to us.

This. can't stand the nauseating artificial tw*t. Don't want him anywhere near our club.

Yeah, along with RoKo leaving

And The Lions

Frankly, that should be a given irrespective of who the manager is.

Gabbiadini is likely to be rusty and lacking on confidence after so much time on the bench. We know he can score, give him time to get back into it. Cedric's goal was bizarrely brilliant, 100 yards covered from RB to upfront on the left, no way he'd have done that if MoPe had still been here

GET IN!!!!

ffs!!!

hope we don't come to regret that....

great save tbf

Apart from Carillo, I'm loving this line up. Probably our strongest possible XI

interesting perspective https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/933312/Southampton-Mark-Hughes-Nathan-Redmond-Premier-League

I'm pleased it isn't. Monumentally underwhelmed by this appointment and if we go down, do we really want to be stuck with him??

This, 100%

This, x 10.

The Mirror is reporting that we're sacking him at the end of the season whether we stay up or not. Fulham's Jokanovic and Ostersunds Graham Potter lined up as replacements.....

What was the crowd reaction at the final whistle??

This is one of the Stoke fan's combined XI from us and them. 4 of ours in there, 2 of which most of us wouldn't want anywhere near the starting XI...funny how other people see us!!! A combined XI would probably be: Butland Bauer Shawcross Indi Bertrand Allen Lemina Badou Shaqiri Long Redmond

It is when it leaves us in a position like we are in at the moment. From a fan's perspective, I'd rather not be in a relegation battle than have swelled the bank coffers

Don't disagree with you for a second. The PL has become rather unpalatable overall becoming a millionaires playground. Until either a salary cap or a draft system is introduced, neither of which I believe the FA can do, I think it will become unsustainable and the bottom will drop out, at which point, given our financial management, we should become one of the more stable clubs. Until then, it's scraps from the table.

Am happy with the left but Cedric couldn't cross a road and Pied hasn't exactly set the flanks on fire....
