Mr X

We are professional Losers from. Last season it's going to be tough to shake that mentality

Tessem recons you shouldn't be able to score past a keeper from that angle!..... Hmmm

Watford have looked dangerous the whole game tbf and we've switched off this half

That was definitely coming

Azaz looks slow at moment and loose passes... Very early days though

Why is BBD so utterly useless for us but was semi decent at other clubs? Probably on high wages so hopefully another to move on in the window

Having taken in close to 100 million on dibling and Fernandes surely we can now sign a 20 million plus striker? And not some bargain basement has been 🤔💭

What the actual hell! Makes onuachu and mara look good!

Till we get a class striker (hopefully with experience at a higher level) that's capable of 15-20 plus goals we are going to struggle, our strikers simply aren't good enough!.

No Offence Damian Downes looks a non league striker 😂

It was always coming

Stoke have more shots on target and more possession.... Still out 😂

So is it true that he told the club he would down tools if they didn't sell?

We look very susceptible to counter attacks and our midfield doesn't look great.... Our whole season hinges on either we can keep Fernandez

We will no doubt see the huge gulf in class between a team that got comfortably relegated and one that finished comfortably in the top 10 of the premier league, hopefully we can see what potential some of the new signings have and it's not too embarrassing

The only possible reason I can think for Stephen's staying is that WS thinks he can improve our players but only players that really want to play for Southampton.... That said jack Stephens should be backup not anywhere near the starting team! If he starts then I'm not convinced WS is a good judge of our players

A tougher and experienced opponent for garner but he delivered the goods when it counted...... St Mary's awaits 🤞

The one thing I'm pleased I heard from WS in his recent interview was "I don't believe in possession for possessions sake" thank Christ for that! 😂

Still don't get how someone can relegate us and then walk into the rangers job..... He did get us up in the first place so we have to be greatful for that but it was clear from the beginning Martin wasn't going to work in the premier league everyone knew it but the club it seems

Hom many million was that per goal like 5m

All like 4 of them 😂 a beast and our leading goal scorer!

Do you think AA realises himself that the premier league is beyond him? Or do you think he feels he is that good and not been given opportunities? Surely he accepts deep down that he isn't an effective player at that level

In hindsight we should have maybe stuck with him as juric appointment was absolutely pointless by that point not sure what juric was all about or why! Martin was definitely in a rut though what was it one point in 15 games? I think it was his insistance on not even trying a plan B when plan A was clearly failing. It was good when it worked but his style sucks the life out of how the game should be played, risky passes for possessions sake and not much more

Onuachu is a weird one I like his enthusiasm and he's had a couple of decentish appearances for us where he's tried to rally the troops but he's much the same as our other strikers ie looks terrible once he gets anywhere near goal and a poor decision maker, he looks clumsy /lanky and slow at times but there is an decentish player in their somewhere..... Sadly I don't think it's ever going to work out for him at saints, English football where you get nano seconds to make decisions doesn't seem to suit him! Best for all parties if he finds another club

Part of our downfall was there was no real plan to replace championship players with premier league ones... The players we got In were poor, (fernandes aside) are we just going to repeat the exact same mistakes again should we ever get promoted? They knew the likes of AA and Stephen's smallbone frasier etc were never going to cut it in the premier league This guy looks like he has got the right attitude and has the height and pace but at just 20 is he ready or more a signing for the future?
