Bit of a history rewrite there. Lowe was the one barking up the Stoneham tree. Right up to the point that it was obvious it would never get built. It was only Southampton City Council offering the land and permission to build St Mary's that got us away from the Dell. All Lowe had to do was sign a couple of mortgage forms.
Just about how I see it. I reckon we'll hammer them with that 11. Too good up front. 7-6 Saints. Ramirez off the bench to set up a quick hat-trick for Osvaldo. Alpine nowhere to be seen tomorrow night.
I disagree, he would have been moving forward and should have gone for it. He was also off balance, on his heels, when the header came in, which is why he couldn't get anything meaningful on the ball, he was going backwards, indecisive, and in no mans land.
Real test of Poch's management now. Reckon he's learned a fair bit about his squad, and a signing or 2 to strengthen key positions could be on the cards in January.
I don't think many would argue with that. He is undoubtedly talented though, and needs to be judged after a decent run in the side, not in 1 game , out the next.
My opinion, and this where a lot of us differ.
