Mr X

FFS same old shit

Man city clearly knew he wasn't good enough

Well at least we kept the lead for some time

FFS we are so weak

AA your the best 😂

With no one decent to take it

I blame SR appointing two crap managers in a row...... time will tell if it's three

It's truly shocking that we keep starting him just not good enough

We are very fragile mentally though, one loss seems to always lead to a bad run with saints

Not such a great deal when you factor in the 40% sell on going back to Chelsea meaning we will pocket about 17 million but it's more than we paid and clear he wasn't going to stay & also frees up what I imagine is high wages

Comes to something when we can't even keep hold of tella who was totally unproven in the premier league till recently gaining form.... Surely we have to keep hold of some quality... Basically anyone who's half decent wants out and any replacements we get will be substandard!

Please tell me we are keeping Che and sending AA on his way and not vice versa

If we really have got 40 million for tino that's fantastic business.... Surely lavia who has far more potential imo shouldn't be sold for less than 60 million?

The last past "legend" that returned to the club sure did wonders

Russell Martins credentials aren't any better than Nathan Jones if we are honest so why are we repeating the same mistake? maybe he isn't a complete pyschopath like Jones though

Still struggling the see how SR think this is the man for us, what about his record says it's a good fit for us? What has he actually achieved? I guess beggars can't be choosers though and there wouldn't have been many people queuing up to manage us, again like Jones such an uninspired appointment though

I can't cope with a manager with such a boring name can we call him Russello Martinez instead pretend we have some international gem 😂

Well at least we've appointed someone with decades of managerial experience, combined with both experience of relegation battles and promotions SR have done good here I feel

This is a very last roll of the dice from sports republic they have to get this one right....... third time lucky maybe! To say the fan base is underwhelmed is an understatement just like Luton with jones, Swansea don't seem too upset to lose him. How exactly will SR save face if they get this wrong to?

They should be paying us compensation for taking him

Looks like alcarez has done a 360 and won't be staying can't blame him

I'm hoping that because this deal is taking its time, that we have some other candidates on the shortlist too, and that maybe it's a smokescreen by the club 🤞 Russell Martin doesn't sound enough of an upgrade on Jones and Selles and would be yet another huge gamble! We were prepared to spend 20 million plus on a player why do we not ever seem to invest in a quality manager?

The most worrying bit is dragan says "I know nothing about football" but then goes onto say he had a part in appointing Nathan Jones! How can that ever happen???

Amazing what a lack of pressure does to players (aka the shop window) AA had that chance sooo many times during games this season and always fluffs it harmlessly at the keeper or falls over or loses possession.
