Give it to Ron

Dont forget you can get 10% off with a ST.

So you want us to do badly just so you can say told you so? You have written off the new manager before he starts.....you call our fans deluded yet you are obviously not one going by your post.

Why change his principles? What about the inability to score - just maybe by changing the formation to have 2 strikers was worth a shot? Jayrod scored 1 and made one at Boro yet dropped - worth a shot alongside Gabi? Nope lets stick rigid and replace like for like....Come on Clasie had a great game at WBA was then dropped for 4 games not 1 minute he scored FFS more than Davis JWP and Tadic were managing! You may not have been in the stadium for the last 5 games but I was and it was apparent the players didn't get it either and the fans rightly had enough of the weird selections and subs. Sims was deemed as the saviour one game yet hardly gets a kick the next, Austin not brought on in last 15 mins when needed a goal yet starts in place of Gabi next game. Away from home great but at home where you need to get most of your points he lost the plot....whether the new manager does any better who knows but the board has to back him better than they did Puel. Whether the new manager can get the best out of Jayrod/Long.....Koeman did for Long.

Wrong what was nye impossible was scoring a goal and staying in the team, having your main striker and having someone close enough to him to get and give the ball to. Our formation of 4 2 3 30yards was one of the reasons being ignored. Why is everyone ignoring the fact that Puel was asked to stay but change this tactic but refused ? Thats nothing to do with fans wanting him out just his stubborn refusal to change - just like his substitutions at home. But then some of the Hey Look I Wanted Him To Stay crowd lose their stick to beat other fans with.

Yeah that Farke bloke won't get you promoted 17th I reckon. How much was your ST renewal? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

It is Baker Chalobah Murphy are worse Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Holgate and Chilwell so wasteful. JWP delivery caused issues but rest final ball abysmal. Abrahams looks a handful but hardly seen Baker. Redmond just comfortable but kicked every time he moves. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Spot on - how does a player get motivated if he does what is asked then get dropped - not 1 minute in 4 games....replaced by players that can't hit a cows arse.

I'll take another 2 good seasons...may be better candidates available as well in 2 years.

I don't understand why some people would want Pellegrino over De Boer. We need a manager that could attract players Koeman just has with Klassen. Ok his Inter wasn't great but his Europa campaign was without all his major players at that time. All managers fail somewhere. Look at that Judas git Redknap and his spell here thats airbrushed out of history.

Puts above winning at home and away?

TBF Nick Whiskey George deserved all he got - that side should have cruised it but his dropping of Rasiak at crucial times and the insistance of playing players on wrong wings. I remember one game we had 5 players playing on the opposite side to natural we had no balance. You are correct the Ipswich game where Lowe set the Green Army on his own fans and the protests outside the boardroom were toxic - although they did pull the curtains across. Puel lost the players and the fans look at the walkaround never saw so few in the ground - only those in dressing gowns and face paints - he had to go really.

Well it was one of the games that Puel didn't do it that I lost it with him - Danny Rose tore us a new one for 25 mins yet did Mr Puel change it at half-time? That was my issue with Claude at home he was tactically inept along with Watson/Pascal/Black who all should go as well. Against Spurs we were brilliant for 20 mins - then surrendered and just let them take over tactically - ok they are a good side but you counter a sides threat well a good manager would. My point about FDB was that he actually made the change so recognised a fix . Of course the crux is who we recruit player wise too. Thanks no issue with you we all see the game differently just get a bit fed up with Always constant sniping at others.

Frank De Boer is getting written off here but I saw him actually make a good tactical change against us away. First half all our threat was down the flanks - he shut that down second half - something Puel never ever managed to do. All managers fail somewhere - Koeman/Poch did before coming here so maybe FDB will shine here who knows if he gets the job will give him at least until h/t v Swansea. :-)

Pies nope never eat at SMS do moan about the sh1te beer though and definately about the substitutions because Puel was tactically inept at home whereas you just retouch your face paint and tinsel wig and accept everything and moan about anyone else on here that doesn't wear a Saints dressing gown like you.

Its ok am sure a gushing lickspittle like you will cream your knickers over every anti post.

Jeremy Wilson‏Verified account @JWTelegraph 26m26 minutes ago In terms of Thomas Tuchel and Southampton; he was on shortlist but with others and not at top. Not sure it worked from either perspective

Agreed they let him down badly and should go. Tactically inept. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Do you think after spending £220m they will honestly be hands off....would you? Given the almighty clusterfck the club made last summer and season just maybe new blood is needed but the reports of Lander don't read well.

It was also filmed in Austria not Switzerland but hey....

Great article and this is exactly it for me: Conversely, not much has to go wrong for those fractures to appear. One of the idiosyncrasies of this Puel situation is that, if it comes to pass, the decision to let him go will be both harsh and entirely reasonable. Southampton haven’t been entertaining, but they’ve achieved a solid par in literal performance terms. The problem, instead, comes in the form of a Je ne sais quoi...something is wrong, but nobody knows quite what it is. The football he’s coached hasn’t quite been bold enough. The players don’t seem to like him quite enough. And there’s a lingering feeling, especially among those who have his team this season, that – in spite of what the league table may say – this is an imperfect marriage which is better off annulled. Something in the air isn’t quite right. In this instance, that’s sufficient. Most managerial situations are erroneously judged on a criteria best applied only to the biggest jobs in the country. Jose Mourinho’s status at Manchester United and Antonio Conte’s employment at Chelsea are, despite the high-stakes, far more cut and dried, with those jobs depending on clear landmarks and achievements. At Southampton, success is more ethereal; they too strive for the shiny emblems, but the determination of progress is altogether more vague. The emphasis, really, is on the creation of a certain a mood – a mood which, unfortunately, Puel has been unable to foster. When his departure is formalised, he will leave not because of what he has failed to do this season, but what he appears unlikely to do next year.

Lander deal reliant on Virgil being with us until complete then a sale gives them a quarter back straight away.?? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
