  1. I think Long could do a similar job for us that the Japanese bloke does for Leicester if we wanted to play 4-4-2. He works so hard he can get back & make it a 5 when we're defending, but quick enough to get up & support Gabbi when we break quickly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. He had plenty of chances early in the season and missed again and again. He had more playing time than Charlie at the start of the season. The only reason he didn't get playing time is because he's pretty useless. Bournemouth aside he hasn't deserved to play. We're not a ****ing charity, time to get rid.

  3. So? It doesn't matter who you beat, just where you finish in the league. It seems to me that the Puel critics want to judge him by a different criteria than previous managers. You have to win well, you have to score lots of goals in defeat, you have to attack the big boys, you have to jump up & down on the touch line & crack jokes at press conferences. League position doesn't matter, it's who you beat that counts. And any wins don't count because the opposition were sheite. In my opinion there is not one person who wouldn't have settled for 9th & a cup final ,2 games out,had Ron remained Manager, not one. Had he done so without Mane,Pelle,Big Vic & VvD for a third of the season, they'd be singing his praises. People are so fickle and deluded. The last 3 years have spoilt a lot of our support. I used to think, with the odd exception we were a pretty grounded bunch. I'd laugh at the deluded fools that follow West Ham and the style they have to play ,the backward looking Liverpool supporters, Evertonians thinking they're still a massive club , Spurs with all this "glory"pony. You know what, we're as ****ing bad now. I'll tell you what, if we sack Puel after finishing 8th/9th/10th & a cup final people in the game, pundits & neutrals will all be saying WTF, who do they think they are.

  4. Good result. As I've said all season there's nothing wrong with our away form & performances, in fact performances are more consistent than they were last season under Koeman imo. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Good football for that goal, great reaction from Claude as well. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  6. That's ok then. Honest Ron says so, how could we ever doubt him. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  7. Like he did with PSV? Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

  9. If Liverpool wanted Tadic he'd be there now. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  10. ****ing hell , some of you are ****ing deluded. We're not Barcelona Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  11. Long & JRod (or at least his dad) appear to have a lot to say this season, time to do their talking on the pitch Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. From day one that the Everton leak came out sources were stating that Koeman was interested & Everton were confident of getting him. That didn't come out of thin air. There is no way Koeman would have stayed Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. So if Puel goes these senior players will stay? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Before the start of the i would have said midtable plus a cup final. Of course now we've got that, it's not good enough. After seeing Poch finish 8th with no cup final, Koeman 6th with no cup final in their first seasons, I expect Puel to finish top 6. Even though he's got a far worst set of players, i want that . Unless Puel finishes top 6 and plays football like Barcelona I want him out. I pay money to attend games and I deserve to get my money's worth. If I don't like Puel someone else should be appointed and if I don't like them, sack them as well. I demand a top 6 finish AND great attacking football . I called for lawries head in 1973 and had the board listened to me, we'd have won more than one poxy FA Cup. **** me, we're Southampton and midtable plus a cup final is unacceptable.

  15. A labour spokesman was asked about a 2014 film of Corbyn calling for NATO to disband on the BBC today . What had changed ,opinion or the facts he was asked. He answered what had changed was Corbyn "wasn't party leader in 2014". Pretty much sums this principled man up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. So Corbyn has announced today he's not a pacifist. This principled man who says what he believes is not a pacifist. My opinion is that it's ok for a pacifist to run for PM, but a pacifist pretending not to be one, just to run for PM is pretty unprincipled Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Renewed mine & lads today. Everybody I've been going with for years are also all renewing Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. My mates a Leicester fan & his take on Ranieri is this; They had a good end to the season winning game after game to stay up. Ranieri just took over & changed nothing. Ranieri was laid back and less intense than Pearson & they were on a roll. They had signed Kante & Ranieris management style brought the best out of Mahraz. Once the pressure hit, the laid back style was perfect. He deflected pressure from them, stayed calm and allowed the players to play in a relaxed manner. According to my mate they would have started as well under Pearson but would have blown up when the pressure came As Pearson would have cracked and his intensity would have hampered the players. They would not have won the league without Ranieri, he was perfect for that moment in time. Fast forward this season and Ranieris style that won them the league was his downfall. They needed bringing down to earth, they needed the arses kicked, some thought they were billy big balls. Ranieri was completely incapable of managing the situation and started to panic & tinker , this led to a downward spiral that took us to where we are now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. **** me, we're in danger of becoming as deluded as West Ham fans. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. **** me, it's competitive sport not the Harlem ****ing Globetrotters. As for "The majority of the players are unhappy", you just made that up. How can people have a decent debate about the club,when some just make things up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Is it any wonder managers & players bugger off the first offer they get. Who would want to stay and play or manage for a bunch of twts who want you out as soon as you slip below their expectations. People seem to think we've got a God given right to be "best of the rest", if you're dissatisfied with mid table you're going to have a lot of disappointment supporting saints. Of course its now moved on to "style of play", **** me some of you are as deluded as West Ham fans. Good job there wasn't Saintweb in 1973, the calls for lawrie to be sacked would have broken the internet. The pathetic thing is had Puel come in won the EFL cup & finished 5th before upping & going to Arsenal or PSG the ones calling for his head would be the ones calling him a disloyal ****. Loyalty is a two way street in my book & a manager deserves more than one season in the job. Particularly when he's taken us to a cup final & we're mid table, with mid table players.

  22. All these predictions were also made without knowing that Fonte & VvD would be missing since Jan. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. Would they preferred he'd managed & failed in the Spanish league like Koeman Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. Pony, they wouldn't have put a defensive performance like Liverpool if that was true. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. If you think Pellegrini would have turned us into "top four challengers"you really are deluded. If you think mid table & a cup final are a "disaster", you're supporting the wrong club Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
