we seem to be cursed

Just wish he'd hurry up and piss off, really hope we get some good money for him

It sounds a bit unlikely that any club would be allowed to have a verbal agreement with the player, In transfer dealings they first need to agree a fee with the club the player is contracted to this then enables them to talk to the players agent about personal terms. if they have talked to the Lavia directly they have made an illegal approach to force a move or am I mising something? Whole there is undoubtable interest in Lavia from a varirty of clubs this has all the hallmarks of a typical click bait story from football insider which as usual has no credibility. It is an attempt to unsettle the player, with the hope from Arsenal in getting a cut price deal for him like Liverpool have been touting about too I hope Saints have diamond hands and hold out for the appropriate fee of around £50M From Arsenals point of view this is just to replace Parteywho they want rid of. Personally I think with Arsenals approach for Declan Rice now reportedly pushing £100M would be their priority, i don't think Lavia for around £50M too would make alot of sense for Arsenal for 2 players in the same position costing that much. It will surely be one or the other, if the Rice move fails then they will go for Lavia, lets not forget they also have Jorghino too.

Can't fault his effort but he too injury prone and is made of glass, reminds me of our former player Lee Holmes who had some promise but was wrecked by the phyisical side of the game where he was just not up to the job

just wish he'd piss off, hopefully for a decent fee too

he should of been shown the door the same time as Ralph, no was no better than Ralph or Jones, board totally bottled appointing a real manager to try and save us and went for the cheap option and look where we ended up

Glad Semmens has gone as was out of his depth and had no prior football knowledge but how Rasmus Ankersen is still there after all he was responsible for conributing to our demise this season beggars belief

Hopefully its gonna be Marcelo Gallardo as widely reported he is to leave River Plate, but could be Sean Dyche or worse still Fat Sam!!

Hopefully that's the last we've seen of Ralph. Done his best but so long as owners see us as a selling club we'll never prosper. Championship here we come.

What star attacker would want to join us, were shit

fucking terrible

Sean Dyche in please!!!

Diallo is just not good enough to replace Romeu as seen in the last few fixtures he played in, we need to find a better option this summer

We've gotta be favourites for the drop next season unless things improve drastiically, the fact is our squad and manager are just not good enough to compete in this league if RH survives the inquest into the end of this season from our new owner i would be suprised, he has to take the majority of the blame for how he have performed and by sheer fluke we have mannaged to stay up due to other teams being marginally worse

I also think the coaching staff must take as much repsonsibilty for our poor form as Ralph, we need a major overhaul not only with the manager but with the backroom staff, I'm sorry to say Kelvin Davis and Dave Watson must be replaced as they appear to offer nothing in terms of improving the team as far as I can see. if anything we seem to have gone backwards, hopefully if Ralph does the decent thing and goes at the end of the season or the board call time on him the whole backroom staff will be replaced also

RALPH OUT!!!

Bring on Shane Long at HT for AA

Really hope Ralph does the decent thng and pisses off at the end of the season, enough is enough, he's taken us as far as he can and there is no sign of any improvement its time for someone else who at least has a few plans on what to do to actually tatically win games and get the best out of players we have, if he doen't leave just hope the board and the new owners have the balls to do something about it and also spend some money on some decent players would help too and we don't have to suffer some of the medioce second rate dross that we currently have running round on the pitch

This has all the hallmarks of Ralph leaving at the end of the season, he just can't seem improve us any more or get the tatics right when it counts, if he doesn't go it will be interesting to see our new owners assessment of him this season as Dyche was shown the door by Burnley in my view Ralph is far worse given the squad he has

I can't see Broja signing permanently and certainly not in January, Tuchel has already said its too soon and he has a contract with Chelsea until 2026 so it's gonna take a big fee in the summer to prise him away. Knowing what a c**t Tuchel is he will probably just keep him for the hell of it as i'm sure there will be many other clubs willing to pay alot more than we will offer even with any new increased takeover transfer kitty money, but if they manage to bag Haaland or another top striker who knows?, It looks like we will be stuck with the dud Championship fodder Adam Armstrong, just hope he comes good in the end like Che did

Ralph did exactly the same with Obafemi and it resulted in him going to Swansea when he fell out of favour and wasn't selected, i know Tella has miles better potential than Oba ever did and he has looked a threat when he does play, but if he's just not been given the opportunities to show his talent, what else can he do??, i'd expect Ralph (if still here by then) to send him out on loan in January if he doesn't get game time, Ralph needs to play him ASAP and drop Walcott he has been terrible since signing that pernanant deal (deja vue with the Saganowski deal back in the championship in 2007).

bet Danny is loving the new challenge playing for Villa now 🤣

Deffo another want away, Ralph should be honest about it, still got another 2 years on his contract, wouldn't be suprised to see him go in January if he continues to dig his heals in, at least get some money for him to re-invest in the team

Horseman has to go surely, we've been awful all season so far and with the players with potential at his disposal we should at least be on par with the oppo's, there has been no sign of any improvement at all and points to a complete lack of coaching ability. As our academy and youth system was once the pride of this club it has since sunk to the depths of mediocraty even Jaidi coached them better

Southampton's biggest away win in their 136-year history. Southampton's biggest ever domestic cup win.
