2021 my opinion. God that year sounds like it should be far away yet its just 2 years away. He’ll see out his contract here and we won’t have Reed like cr*p where we didn’t want Koeman to see his contract- we tried being way too clever there. Pochettino’s future isn’t certain either yet their players don’t seem to be hampered by that this season. And on a side note, Alpine comes back here after a long time, and the negative vibes are back Enjoy the bloke whilst he is here, if he or any of our top players wre prised away we should be proud of them and happy thay theyve been successful for us (unless they really throw their toys out the pram)

would not fit Ralph's stylee. you can tell what he wants is just speed everywhere in the front 4 attacking spots- he had that at Leipzig with Werner, Poulsen, Bruma, and a really good playmaker in Forsberg. and rightly so! all the best attacking players in the world have some sort of speed and pace except the odd one/two target men like Kane and Cavani- and don't get me wrong they aren't that slow either. if we were going to only buy 1 player, then id rather we went and bought another redmond type winger but can play up front too if needed.

i'm a firm believer in the saying 'you make your own luck'!

Championship team at home, Leeds beat them 2-0 on their patch, and I'm sure they've played just as many games as us with a manager who also loves to press! Not saying to make any no alterations, but also wouldn't see too much point in wholesale changes. However, Ralph knows the fitness levels more than any of us after today's game. I'd play this: same back 5 again, build the chemistry, bar Gunn in for McCarthy- let's make him our cup keeper for now or something?! ----------------------Gunn------------------------------ --------Stephens--Bednarek--Vestergaard--------------- Cedric-----Romeu----------JWP------------Targett--- -----------------------Redmond--------------------- -----------------Long---------Gallagher---------------- really would help to know who is available though apart from the obvious suspended ones in Valery and PEH- I'd fit Bertrand for Matt and Lemina for Slattery in the perfect world. Reasoning for Long is that I doubt he'll start against Everton if true that Ings is back- but can give Ralph food for thought if he were to score again/help his confidence This might be harsh on Sims too- can't please everyone. Elyounoussi too may expect game time also.

what a win, defended as amazingly as we did at the Bridge! motm for me will go to Bednarek, and a close second to our sub Cedric- didn't do anything wrong in that cameo. Ralph slowly removing that woeful fragility we had in us when it came to games like this- under Hughes we would have lost that 3-2. I can't wait for him to stamp his footprint on next season, get the feeling he'd love some more speed and pace up front and we'd have a really good outlet to counter attack with. tbh apart from Valery, I'd say everyone had a good game and put a shift in... But, Valery is young and this is all part of the learning curve, he'll come good one day but today showed his inexperience- could have really cost us the game. As for Leicester, that was a classic Puel performance that we became used to and now Leicester fans are feeling- they'll have thought we were there for the taking with our depleted squad.

I said earlier to keep the faith! We did it! *****ng heroes!!!

Haha id say its a bus with 3 wheels on it!

I’m fairly certain Cedric has won every tackle atm- playing really well

For all our worries this is the exact thing the Leicester forum say they hate about about Puel- he can’t set his teams attack up to beat teams that park the bus

have the faith parking the bus is the only effective thing left to stifle them- just need to make sure their frustrations grow and they lose their heads

good defending from cedric stops barnes getting there

Nichholas saying Oliver really having a poor second half- showing no consistency as ref

2-1 leicester *****

my stream is 2 mins behind but I have SSN on too and Charlie Nicholas shouted the second time I feared the worst!!! then it shows us as 2-0 up and literally thinking what the fudge. i'd keep it as it is tbh- change stephens to right back and lets play a 4221 although jannik and bendarek have shone in a back3- if we stay same formation then cedric for armstrong i say.

We scored again! Hahaha

wow Valery off

Leicester goal not given EDIT: should have waited for Charlie Nicholas to finish his sentence

Pressing wins us a corner!

Burnley take the lead!

Redmond great burst of pace to book Maddisom who got frustrated

JWP taking it!!! Goal!

‘No team has used as many as the 26 players Southampton have this season’ ‘Long- may not give you goals but will give you a 100%’- made me laugh too because I’d rather have the goals haha

This was our bench against Everton at home back in 2014- we won that game against them 3-0 though! (mind you, we had a decent defence back then- but looking at that line up that beat them it wasn't all that to say the least either!) 1Davis 10Mané 32McCarthy 33Targett 38McQueen 45Seager 46Gape

Asia Cup with Japan!

McCarthy Valery Stephens Vestegaard Bednarek Targett Romeu JWP Armstrong Redmond Long so 3421 or 5221 depending on how you view it. Gunn, Cedric, Ramsay, Slattery, Sims, MoE, Gallagher
