Give it to Ron

Well going by what I saw on Saturday he is a focal point we don’t have. His touch isn’t bad and he drew 3 fouls in time he was on. He played a withdrawn role that allowed Edozie and Armstrong to play up more and it nearly worked but Armstrong scuffed it wide. I think he is something different that may unsettle some defenders and give Armstrong etc more opportunities and for what €10m worth keeping unless we invest that in a keeper and quality forward.

Disagree with Mara possibly off to Lens I think he will be an option off the bench. Out of interest did you see him on Saturday?

Hello how much do you want …€30m !!! Bye 🚨 Neither Southampton nor Leicester have actually made concrete proposals to Panathinaikos for striker Fotis Ioannidis, only enquiries at this stage – Sporting CP are leading the race to sign him #saintsfc @Record_Portugal

Possibly but the players and club seem to be in far greater morale and player togetherness under Martin than many other we have had for long time. He won’t get on with all and am sure in your working life come across managers you hate . To answer if this is the case so be it but as said elsewhere the club are backing Martin and that’s correct.

Saints are so racist he even has a username of one of the most adored players.

Even Pep and Fergie had man management issues why would Martin be different?

From what you have seen in the last 2 seasons from him why would this be a disaster? Who is going to pay more based on last season? Did you think he was going to stay given we signed 2 centre halves this summer who the manager wanted? We need funds for a keeper and forward keeping him wasn’t an option was it?

Like a Pulis club what one that survives in the Prem ? Saturday he came on and played deeper behind Edozie Armstrong then Dibling . We didn’t just lump balls into the box then why would we now, who could we get to replace him for 10m if he is only option as Stewart won’t be fit for 2 weeks.

Why don’t we leave a player up when defending a corner as it always comes straight back ?

But when we are not buying what we desperately need why spend that on a player that we already have? That money should be spent on a keeper and a defensive midfielder because if Flyn gets injured….

Do you think Carvalho is worth 27m?

🚨 Hoffenheim are still working to sign Southampton defender Armel Bella-Kotchap, with a final fee expected in the region of €15-17m – but no agreement yet #saintsfc @Plettigoal

Yep and everyone has 132k followers!

Not true on Ghoddis he did well at Brentford and is decent according to my Brentford mate. But think we are not interested as nothing in any site we are after him now.

Yes he did so dont know why people keep posting about him. He isn’t coming here no matter how much some want him.

Are we or without sales can we afford £25m as I think the case is answer is no. Big difference from size of fee too for Onauchu and their offer €5m is taking the piss an offer of £18m for O’Riley isn’t.

Good post exactly how I saw it , Lazio niggly dirty left their foot in loads lots of pulling back then whinging to ref. Some nice football ruined by constantly playing at back gifting it when we had outlet wide in Diaz and not mixing it up. Lazio knew just to press as we never went long or wide

Ticket app worked fine. Sapporo is £7:30 a pint no Guiness tonight at £5:90 . Kingfisher £6:20. That’s the important bit 🙂 A bloke wearing pink kit near me could be Mr Blobby.

🚨 Stuttgart were interested in Armel Bella-Kotchap but are unlikely to sign him after seeing an offer of less than €10m rejected by Southampton #saintsfc @Plettigoal

🚨 Lazio are very interested in Southampton attacker Charly Alcaraz and would be interested in a loan with option to buy #saintsfc @Solo_La_Lazio

🚨 Southampton, along with Ipswich and Leicester, are interested in Tottenham midfielder Oliver Skipp (23) #saintsfc @TeleFootball

🚨 Southampton have turned down a bid from Trabzonspor for striker Paul Onuachu, worth €5m + further €2m in add-ons #saintsfc @TheAthleticFC

It’s O’Riley

Transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano reports that Hoffenheim and Stuttgart have both approached Saints for the centre-back ABK that is:-) 2 pints of lager and a packet of crisps

That rumour didn’t last long 🙂 🚨 Espanyol are completing the signing of Alejo Véliz from Tottenham. The Argentine is already in Barcelona! (Source: @MatteMoretto)
