So you are saying he deserves all of the credit? It is a combination of Cortese, Reed, the scouting department, the medical department, the academy, Adkins, Pochettino, the old and current coaching staff and the players that have kept us up. Not just Nigel Adkins.

2 league goals in his entire career suggests otherwise.

Well he was 40/1 for it for weeks before today's announcement...

Some of the credit, not all.

Top trolling.

The Hartlepool manager. I don't think he is the calibre of manager that Cortese would be looking at should Pochettino leave.

The day "this regime" tookover, Saints were 68th in England. Today we are 14th in England! That is evidence of an extremely successful transfer policy isn't it?

Danny Rose will miss their last game away at his parent club Tottenham.

I already have. Can't be bothered with you any more, you are either on a wind up or stupid (or a combination of the two). Very tempted to put you on my ignore list.

The man that stalks me on this forum posting pictures of Roger Hargreaves characters call me patronising.

Back to primary school for Mr Turkish. Key stage 1 reading comprehension.

That wasn't the point ffs, I wasn't saying they didn't. Yet again reading comprehension is letting you down.

Can you say the opposite with any certainty?

I didn't say it was the same, just pointing out that to say they "play with far, far more pace than we do" is an exaggeration.

Not a lot. But at the moment he is one of our main attacking options off the bench.

Hardly, clutching at straws. What I've said is correct.

And do Rodriguez and Mayuka not play in wide areas for Saints and take on players on the outside for pace? I think you will find they do. As do Clyne and Shaw in wide areas, the modern fullback is very attacking especially in Pochettino's system. Puncheon isn't exactly "slow" either.

When did I say they were? Turkish said... "Spuds play with far, far more pace than we do." I then listed some very quick Saints players.

Ramirez joined Saints in August 2012, Coutinho joined Liverpool in Janaury 2013.

Rodriguez is very quick and often uses his pace to beat a player out wide, as does Mayuka when he plays. We also have two very quick fullbacks in Clyne and Shaw who play in very advanced roles. I wouldn't actually say Lallana or especially Puncheon are "slow" either.

Cortese isn't going to sell him for less than we brought him for under a year ago ffs. Cortese might as well keep Ramirez than sell him at a loss 1 year into a 4 year contract. I maintain he is our best player, just very inconsistent. I think he will be much better next season after a pre-season at Saints, which he didn't have this year. He was also hit by a number of injuries and a family bereavement in his first season in a foreign league at 22 years old.

Kone is 29 years old ffs. Do you not think it is unfair to compare him with a 22 year old that has only had brief cameos so far? I think Mayuka from the little we've seen looks promising.

Are you wearing a Saints shirt?

Is Nigel Adkins tweeting for the Premier League?
