I have often thought the same but I don't have a any idea it would be interested if Posters like SKD above and Batman could explain their whinging whining attitude because the best players and coaches don't see playing for Saints as a fantastic idea. Most new players seem to be rubbish after a couple of games despite being internationals . So I don't understand why they bother to be involved with SFC if they think most players coaches and management are ****. I realise the squad is not full of top class players and the manager is unproven but hope in every game we play we win but that cannot happen and sometimes we get into a run of really bad results but eventually things will get better and things will improve like they have done before

If we had some decent strikers we would score more goals and win more games. Recruiting decent strikers for clubs our size are very difficult

This does not make sense as Hojbjerg, Redmond, McCarthy, Lemina, Hoedt, Carillo; did play on Saturday and Boufal was injured All of these seem to be first team regulars to me except for Redmond so what is your point. SFC is replacing players who have left with players from top class European Clubs such as Munich Monaco Juventus and Lazio most of whom are Internationals

No it was not We are away to Man City probably one of the best PL team ever We are dross in comparison

Well not what I was hoping for Man City Away

Great result in the QF of FA Cup has not happened that often in the last 30 years I remember 2003 but cannot remember many more I do remember 1963 when we beat Sheff Utd 1-0 perhaps we could beat Sheff Wed this time

That's complete nonsense the current strikers are equivalent of Norman Dean .Brett Ormerod Keith Cassells and Kerry Dixon who hardly ever scored I suppose you never saw Derek Reeves George O'Brien Terry Paine Phil Boyer Ted McDougal Ron Davies Martin Chivers Steve Moran Kevin Keegan MLT Rickie Lambert Pelle Alan Shearer and Mane they were top class players who scored literally hundreds of goals for Saints there is no one of their calibre at SFC now . Although Derek Reeves probably missed more clear cut chances than he scored Of course there we many top class midfielders the Wallace Brothers David Armstrong Stevie Williams who scored regularly as well. We have had some really top class attacking players at SFC who played consistently well which we don't have now

You maybe right but Poch is one of the really top managers in the world and it would be unlikely to attract someone of his calibre again. Having followed SFC for over sixty years there is not one of the our current players in my opinion would get into an eighteen team squad containing all the Saints players I have seen. It is the players which count the most I think but of course a decent manager does help but scoring goals helps too - how many goals have the strikers and attacking midfielders scored in the PL this year

If Kane and Toby played for us and Long and Hoedt played for Spurs probably there would not be much difference between our League Positions. It is because we have not outstanding players that we are in the position we find ourselves

Sorry should have said we could be in the relegation zone this afternoon

But we could be in the relegation drop zone this evening

You have no idea what happened have you. I have no idea either but know we bid £25m which appears to me we wanted him but not at £30m

Very true a good Championship player who helped us to the PL

It is pretty worrying if people like you reject evidence http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11700/11229172/southampton-have-quincy-promes-bid-rejected-by-spartak-moscow and believe what ever they think is the reality of the situation. We bid but were not successful

Why would we waste time in trying to sign him if we did not want him. How do you think all the VVD money is going to get into GAO's pocket? Surely the club is audited and pays taxes on profits. I doubt he wanders in to the club shop to grab a few quid from the till to buy some Sweet and Sour Pork in a local Takeaway but of course I maybe wrong

Looks a big task lets hope we have some luck Southampton v Liverpool Burnley v Southampton Southampton v Stoke City Newcastle United v Southampton Swansea City v Southampton West Ham United v Southampton Arsenal v Southampton Southampton v Chelsea Leicester City v Southampton Southampton v AFC Bournemouth Everton v Southampton Southampton v Manchester City

The Brighton team showed one change from the team that played well in the previous game against Watford so why make loads of changes The made two changes and brought in a new player yesterday Attacking players still not scoring is our main problem at the moment

Exactly you blame the manager I blame the players they earn £millions but continually mess up If they had scored a another goal each month it is likely we would be in the top ten

I think it would just be best to support the team all this negative stuff from knobs like you is not helping the team. If you don't like the way the club is run **** off and support another team I doubt the board are happy with how things are and are very likely to be focusing on how to get the team obtain better results but it is not easy. Most football teams cannot succeed all the time just accept it and get behind the team.

Our attacking players are just crap at the moment rather like last season

You really are deranged sometimes you just have to accept that things don't always go the way you want especially if you are in the relegation zone especially in January I don't think we have had a good window but I don't see many players suitable to SFC have gone elsewhere. We just need Gabbadini Boufal and Redmond to perform to a higher standard

and what will that achieve?

Euros are a pretty strong currency not sure about the rouble

I can't forecast what you will weigh in 10 years time but I can predict that if you eat a lot of burgers and don't do any exercise you will weigh more than if you eat healthily and go to the gym

Well clearly he is not a clown he is managing a team which lacks goal scoring attacking players which has been apparent for the last two seasons Puel had the same problem last season but seems to be doing OK at Leicester. Puel did better last season with VVD playing well we had a better defence and Fraser was not such a liability. Now that McCarthy is fully fit he has been replaced and things are getting better
