I can save everyone a lot of time and effort there

Only 7 points off, those teams above have to play each other, and us. It’s in our hands.

Was going to say the same thing, it’s a relatively modern concept constantly chopping and changing the team. In my view it’s far more beneficial to give the players a chance to have a run and get to know their team mates.

Must be true then.

One of our better windows then?

I like to think such “was” our season, 4 at the back, Peretz in goal, Bree back from loan, Charles back from injury, Ross back from injury, Tonda being more pragmatic, seven points from nine. Maybe sign a striker?? im a bit more optimistic at the moment.

I agree, we have quite a few show ponies who are nowhere near prem quality but don’t have the physicality and character required for the championship. Hence the tendency to being flat track bullies.

Tonda . Not sure what his job exactly is, he’s a bit vague. All I know he has a lot of electronic devices and isn’t allowed within 500 meters of a school.

He looks broken. Big shame. Hopefully he will come good.

Dibblings body language and apparent lack of effort won’t be winning many friends

How could we ever forget, it’s why we are where we are now. A critically injured club.

Watch his bio on Prime if you haven't already. he's had to endure a lot.

You will at the end of the season when the points are recalculated based on Xg. That is what happens isn’t it?

It was a bizarre selection given the nature of this game and his lack of first team experience. I agree he was poor, often out of position when we were defending.

I don’t think it’s bizarre in hindsight, I felt that way at the time, his premier league days were well behind him.

Is Stefan Kuntz still playing? We should sign him too.

I wonder what the “home truths” were on Saturday, Jack back in alongside Taylor and 4 3 3 , Jack picked the team.

If you think it would help, why not?

That’s always a big concern

I think it’s better, but I wouldn’t go nearly so far as that.

Suck it up!

Feels like low to mid 20’s in here tonight, I’m sure they’ll claim a lot more

There’s the three at the back argument, but there is the “sideways and backwards” thing. Of course there could be other reasons.

The empirical evidence suggests this is true, as well as our wider suspicions regarding Rasmus's control. We cannot keep a director of football We cannot attract a decent DoF The playing style is consistent, suggesting its being imposed We cannot (seemingly) attract decent managers We cannot retain managers No one could ever have watched Damion Downs in the flesh and come to the conclusion he should be signed I'm sure there are other examples. On a side note, and I've said it before, if anyone does have any connections in the football world I'd be interested to know what the perception is of Southampton FC. I suspect we are seen as a basket case and a bad career move for players, coaches or anyone else who has any aspirations to improve.

That’s some indictment
