No doubt this lost the players will disappear when certain players are moved on.

Am loving the introduction of Noddy as the new Pony for this season. #Noddywatch

Quick summary of the Athletic article today from Jacob: - no offers in june/july for any players - Monitoring experienced CBs in premier league already. Could be open to selling for the right price: -Jan/Jack/Diallo/Moi/Theo/Che

Normally I would try and refute it cos I went to Everest on the Tibet side but I guarantee on your trip to see this mountain there were more women in bikinis. Insert magnum gif

I'm good on capital cities and history aside from sport

It's interesting cos as a saints fan we have been shit all my life. Every now and again we have an outlier but generally we just want to survive. We've got so entitled nowadays that we want the manager sacked who kept us in the league last season with no money sacked after 1 game away to a Conte Tottenham.

Finally I learn something on here

This is truly outrageous even by our standards. 1 game into new season away and we lost which if you look at the match thread everyone was positive about at half time. I know people say look at the last 13 games or whatever but we didn't get relegated and since then we've bought like 6 young players and will be buying more including a striker whose mustard (authors poetic licence). Maybe patience and let's judge Ralph by Oct.

This is true but the owners if they weren't convinced should of done it after the last game of the season.

We talking marinaus trench bro ? Have been to Everest and can confirm it's high and walking more than 20m without stopping is a hassle. But walking in the trench I would drown and been compressed to nothing.

I will laugh if we beat Leeds. But there are a lot of players we bought before this summer where we had to shop in the 1pound shop who have been utter shit for years. Whilst I think as a manager u can't win, he mentioned salisu scoring an own goal as a killer last week and he was right, I didn't think he threw him under the bus he just made an observation that goal fucked us. I think fans have become even more knee jerk on recent years, we know Ralph has had fuck all money over the years and here we still are in the premier league. People who have invested millions into our club currently believe in him and back him so I think at least let's see how until Oct goes as our first 5 games are hard ish.

Am not Ralph, I am just a hindsight merchant whose never wrong and tactics change game to game hence they are called tactics not strategy. However I would sum our tactics as thus, defence don't be shit, especially don't kick the ball into the wrong net. When we get forward, put in an early cross, not turn backwards and pass back to midfield which allows the opposition to reset and get men behind the ball and midfielders when that early cross goes in one of you get to the top of the box for any loose balls l. Also forwards the goal is to get the ball in-between those sticks but for fucksake avoid the inbred in goal.

Yeah agree, both seem to like Ralph based on interactions in the videos especially in pre-season. All our players need to put a shift in, listen to Ralphs tactics and most importantly CONCENTRATE for the full game. Think for the spurs game our players were maybe under cooked, I want to see positional discipline and good decision making v Leeds.

Im also guessing it's an attacker (probably Che's agent) who is complaining based on the defensive comments, we should focus on our defence cos we've been utter shit. Sort out the defensive then the attack, unfortunately the defensive is the La Sagrada Familia and is taking 100yrs to complete.

Aside from JWP there isn't a player who has earnt enough credit based on their own performance to judge someone else's.

Somebody should of read out in the fans forum last night to ralph the line up that was posted here.

Cos our defence is championship and attack championship so their only experience is match day.

These are the dudes who kept us up with no money the last 4yrs. The hysteria on this forum is next level considering we've spent more than ever on transfers and we got dicked away to spurs after giving them a game for 60mins, spurs who will be tough for every team.

I think we can call that a score draw. Fans or club didn't win that encounter.

I assume the striker we are waiting for is either in a european competition currently or his club is awaiting to sign off a replacement - assume the deal has been done already based on ralph's comment.
