Man Utd attacking line up. I am worried! But these are the games where anything is a bonus. We have to expect defeat right?
At least they haven't got RVP any more.
So many backward passes. Very negative play. But with the likes of Davis, Wanyama and Ward-Prowse as a three man midfield.. they just aren't suited for attacking football.
Midfield lacking so far. Not sure who is meant to be defensive midfield but there is a hole in there. And no-one in a position to link the attack line Mane can.
I think he played his best position today. Too many times he's been asked to be the advancing attacking midfield player. He's better off sitting back and spraying the ball around the pitch.
Hmm. So given some inaccuracies is it fair to say we are probably breaking even? Certainly not that much in the plus though. But then you have the TV money coming in so I wonder where all those apparent mega millions went?
http://www.transferleague.co.uk/southampton/english-football-teams/southampton-transfers This was my source. Not sure about accuracy? When we first came up we spent a lot on the squad including 2 high profile signings in Ramirez and Osvaldo which was money thrown away..
Since we returned to the Premiership (4 years) we are operating at minus £30m transfer dealings despite big sales of the last 2 years. The TV money covers some of that, but how much is left over really?
