disconnect

Surely if we let Adams go and sign Stewart it'll be in addition to another striker. We know that Onuachu isnt going to play, Mara is not really in favour and Armstrong is much better playing off another striker. Would Sulemana play up top on his own?! I'll be shocked (in a good way) if he's still here in a weeks time though!

Where is Perraud? Far better than Manning on the 3 or 4 games played

Hopefully this will stop the haters of one of our most talented, but still very young and inexperienced, players

Just coming back from injury, not sure if may have played in the closed doors friendly. Personally thought he looked like a very promising player, thrown into a bit of a disaster, just small and lightweight, but would suit a passing style for sure.

Not keen on Fraser - terrible attitude from the sounds of it, and that's not the sort of person we need around a young squad. A good player on his day (3 years ago?!), but Edozie has done fine in the matches so far and I'd say on the wing we (currently) have plenty of options.

Would mean KWP is off I guess, as pretty sure he plays right back rather than centre back?

I think there might be quite a strong family connection with Everton for Che unfortunately…

Where’s Alcaraz?

Why would Smallbone want to leave when a week ago(?) he was saying how it was his dream to play for Saints and his manager has been hyping him up.

Anyone else find a strong correlation between the biggest twit (to be polite) you meet and West Ham fans?

What did he say? Watched the match on holiday but haven’t seen any other stuff!

Edozie for me - they just couldn’t handle him. One of their players even had the cheek to imply he dived after they blatantly stamped on his foot! The amount of free kicks and penalties he’s going to win this season is crazy.

What was the fee?

Do we have good relations with Utd?! Have we ever signed a player from them or them done us a favour? That was about 10 years ago and can’t think of anything which would imply we had any sort of relationship with them other than being in the same division

When does #freelavia start? Any inappropriate songs of freedom (for an already very wealthy footballer) we can overlay for them?

That would make 3 right wingers and a left winger signed this pre-season, along with a centre forward. #freetella

Sulemana is significantly better than Djenepo, even though I do quite like Djenepo (but perhaps mainly for the 'did he mean to do that' moments which happen 3 times a match).

KWP has been poor (for him) for most of the last season, playing well within his ability. However, prior to that, especially 2 or 3 (?) years ago was one of the best right backs in the league. Would be surprised if there havent been a lot of enquiries.

Not the first time Princewill has scored this pre-season either. Looking forward to seeing how he gets on over the season.

Bedders is the best at ball playing?! This is a new low for professional football

Sulemana hasnt left yet nor been very strongly linked with anyone apart from vague 'interest from France' links I thought? Would be a real shame if he didnt give us another season, unless he was told he would be sold if we went down.

Definitely not suited and surprised he's still here as he obviously isnt going to work in this system, and all in all hasnt been good enough for several years. Also, he's been here 7 years and didnt know and couldn't care less when asked about the Saints badge. Considering he's one of our longest serving players, you'd think the least he can do would know what badge he's putting on every week.

Move to who? Are Burnley willing to spend more than £2.50p on a player that had a very big part in getting them promoted?

I was thinking this! "Now that I've finally achieved my goal of getting Southampton relegated, I can retire in peace" (or pieces)!

Personally thought McCarthy was no better than Bazunu when he came in, and if we're playing the ball out from the back with McCarthy in goal, we're going to concede a lot of comedy goals this season...!
