Automatic tills in supermarkets that tell you there is a "surprising item in the bagging area" when there isn't.

Worth buying if only for the inevitable forum nickname if he turns out to be ****e.

Drop the m and we might be in business there.

Top 6 (obviously) , the four you list plus Leicester and Wolves all comfortably ahead of us and to a certain extent Newcastle. Which of our players, if any, would any of those teams want? Redmond, Hojberg, JWP, Valery, Bertrand, Romeu, possibly Ings and at an absolute Stretch Armstrong who in reality I've only included for the 70's toy pun value.

LD. Sounds a bit pony.

He's had 3 seasons under 4 managers to prove he's up to it. He's proved irrefutably that he isn't.

Bednarek is fine, a young cb holding his own in the strongest league in the world with the potential to get better. Armstrong? agreed.

Elyounoussi had possibly his best ever game for us today (a backheel found the intended target at one point!) and he was still hopelessly out of his depth. Another player we are going to have to ship out on loan for the rest of his contract just to get a percentage of his wages off the books.

Go on then - Forster, Moi, Stephens, ..........................................

Buy Moi and get......**** it, take him off us and you can have the whole shop.

Yeah, the charity shop window.

Wince. He'd been doing alright, but it all fell apart with that pathetic effort at goalkeeping.

Why the **** didn't Long just smash that at goal?

Say what you like about Moi but **** me he's got a dangerous cross on him!!

I don't think he has "all the attributes to be a top player" at all. I'd put composure and shooting ability right at the top of the list of required attributes and he lacks both. Massively. Bournemouth match was yet another reminder of this - his goal was via a deflection ,Boruc would've saved it otherwise - and the less said about the post incident the better. He has shown consistency in these failings throughout his career.

Armstrong lol. **** me that pathetic bit of ‘football’ that led to the 3rd goal.

Awful player but I don’t think he’s even our worst signing of the last few seasons. Step forward and take a bow Mr Elyounoussi.

Yes, like Musgraves’ “High Horse”. Crows “Silver Tongues” another superb recent effort.

Facepalm. Anyone know the Austrian for persiflage?

Google translated it: "Avoiding relegation this season is virtually a miracle in my opinion. The players are ****. My old pal Ralph has done a great job. Southampton need to urgently invest in some new players and I would suggest they buy some players from RB Salzburg on the advice of Ralph. Sorry for being so frank Southampton, but you gotta be told"

No need to apologise Vienna07 pal the job Ralph has done and the (avoidance of) relegation he has achieved is pretty ****ing miraculous tbh particularly given he had zero financial backing.

That is a terrible stat and proof we lack nous, staying power, and plain old ******. Still, we're not going down and I'd back Ralph to sort the problems out ASSUMING he is given reasonable £ backing.

I've concluded he is not good enough whatsoever at this level.

Much better already
