Needs to go to a pools panel if cancelled. HT Saints 1 Brentford 0 FT Saints 1 Brentford 2 OH…!

Keep Djenipo a 100 miles away from the squad as he’s pants. How on earth can you pounce around in every training video and be taken serious with that cameo vs Palace. Embarrassing!

Very funny Ralph that you think the problem is we don’t score enough goals. I actually think our problem is we concede too many goals. Set the team up to not concede in 90 minutes and you already have yourself a point.

If Palace do their homework then they will win this at a canter. We are so predictable when picking the formation plus predictable in the way we play. Viera ‘Guys sit back and invite them to play for the first 45 minutes, if they score that one goal then don’t worry we will score 2 maybe 3 - second half.’ This is Ralph’s to lose again no doubt!

He’s been sussed out. Every team knows what we do now, start fast and hope to score and then hold on. Predictable, predictable, predictable Z zzzz

A lot worse? I honestly think we have the good players but they are not playing to their strengths. It needs an overhaul and a fresh manager and his number 2 will put an extra step in the current players. Do you honestly think the new manager would continue to win the first half and lose every second half plus the overall match? Do you think they will allow a top RB to play LB every time? Also will they bring on subs that leave you scratching your head every single time? And before I pop off to bed stop giving JWP the responsibility of everything on the pitch.

Totally agree. He’s not trying something different and just keeps making the same mistakes. The team stops with him plus the training stops with his management team. (1) Put Redmond on corners (2) Livi and KWP both on the right (3) Put a LB as a LB (4) Stop chasing everything for the first 45 minutes as we are tanked 2nd half. (5) Redmond as a No 10 (6) Stop over committing for the first 60 minutes and have two solid banks of 4 with two at top. Last 30 minutes press on for a winner with two fresher legs off the bench as the players will be fresher while the opposition will be tired. (7) And finally do some man marking training for the next two weeks where the two banks of 4 must pick up a player and sit tight to them. (Honestly that first and second goal today was school boys marking)

Probably would of butted sideways just like his two lame headers in the last 10 minutes. Honestly Salisu brain farted more than any of them.

Southampton have dropped 71 points from winning points in the Premier League since Ralph Hasenhüttl’s first game in charge in December 2018 – 15 more than any other side.

Predictable as usual. Not one shot in the second half. Where does it go wrong during the break, Is Betty giving them too many hobnobs with their cup of tea?

I just wish we played more casual first half and then blitz them second half as the other team could be on tired legs? Surely there is something we can do as the opposition have us sussed now.

100% Liverpool then it’s a celebration one way or another. if it’s a draw you’re screwed

Considering he was pretty good in our last 4 games before Norwich. Short memories indeed, thought he was the bees knees vs Watford with that save right at the end!

We are due a 9 nil. If going down to 10 men early then I wouldn’t rule it out.

Dave is the manager plus chairman I think. JWP sponsors the team. Just googled Dave Hill and James Ward Prowse. East Lodge Football Club, many articles on his link to James.

Dave don’t give a shit as he hates us with a passion. The twat even told me he put a Pompey scarf in between my brick work.

I’ve found out from a guy Dave Hill (my builder) who knows JWP very well from his Pompey days. JWP coaches his boys some Sunday mornings. Before you slag me off go and find the link as I can’t remember the team in the Pompey league. Anyway Ralph and some players knew he was being replaced at the end of October but Semmens (not his decision) did a turnaround after results picked up plus Ralph did some training changes which was welcomed by the players. Its funny that Howe is now available to manage Newcastle after knowing he is not getting the Saints job yet! Semmens and him apparently have met several times recently according to my original source. Dave has also told me JWP will leave if we accept a good offer for him.

Don’t forget the Wallace brothers Danny, Rodney and Raymond?

Can you kick the ball straight? Can you pass more than 10 yards? And finally can you take penalties? If the answers no then I guess the 75k is yours.

I actually don’t see him banging in a few. He just keeps putting his foot through the ball despite having a player directly in front of him. He needs to learn to create a yard for himself.

Some obvious selections and some not so obvious. OBVIOUS: (1) Lyanco and Salisu at the back (2) Broja up front with Redmond there somewhere. (3) Stuart Armstrong with a starting role. (4) Smallbone as an option off the bench NOT SO (1) Walcott not even on the bench (2) Che Adams and Adam Armstrong should not start (3) JWP back in but don’t slow the game down. Redmond/Smallbone & Armstrong have produced better corners than he’s done in the last 8 games. Only let him take the free kicks around the 18 yard box.

Totally agree with this. What other tunes would they have to get the fans going?

But I have no objection if those lovely Brazilian ladies wanted to dance along your screaming.

Quality player and he oozes class. My fears are people are starting to notice and if he has massive ambitions then how long can we hold him for. Dunno if it’s me but he seems to do the job of two defenders as Bedbatek never gets a mention on the commentary.

I will put my head on the line here and say that Howe is replacing Ralph at the end of October. Even if we win the next 3 games it won’t make a difference as the camp is not healthy at the moment and whoever the guys are that make those decisions are now taking action. Why it’s not being done now I don’t know but the source who has radio links with the club said something is being planned.
