Pray for Southampton Soccer Franchise

[quote=egg;2393898 Looking at MLG's list please tell me how the squad is weaker. Also tell me which new player is worse than the player he replaced. In short, stop whining, think before you type and get behind the team ffs.Please let me know who is going to replace the loss of 22 goals? I'm all for getting behind the team, but having apologists for the clubs constant lack of ambition( that doesn't match their statements) lets the club off IMHO

if the club can see a £2m loan fee coming in, they may well go for it.

I agree

it wasnt intended to be but perhaps we all are quick to post without taking into account who is the other end. Thanks for the point out though

I think some posters should sit back and realise not all on here are adults, but perhaps just Saints fans in the school holidays. I dont know how old the majority of posters on here are but we must get young impressionable fans as well and they dont need to be goaded. This is not just to you by the way

16m according to Sky

I still would like us to buy Will Hughes from Derby.

Strikes me that Jose has lost a lot of respect of fans due to his stalling to stay

All pertinent, but even with more 1player in, we seem to be a weaker team than we finished last season, but with a lot more games to play. I can only assume that the club believe that putting our youth players in we will be able to cope. Listening to VVD's tone in his interview yesterday, it sounded pretty frustrated and I wonder if he regrets signing the longer contract and will want to be out of the project come January. He has his career to think about and so doubt he wants to waste it slumming round the lower reaches of the league and not progressing I cup competitions. Having to nursemaid the youth players cannot be much fun and also be frustrating.

I wasn't at the game and so can only give my opinion from the very little highlights on Motd. Austin showed why he is an instinctive finisher, His shot on goal was a vey good attempt. Defoe is still a superb forward who makes something from nothing, although Jose made a bit mistake. I heard that Targett was very close to scoring with a fee kick but it was not shown

oh ok thanks

chanting for Booze? I don't get it

Whilst he has had an increased contract. The thought that he may be able to get a dream move can only affect his mindset and play on his mind negativily

and the most likely to put a chance away

I didnt realise Long wasnt playing!!! His energy upfront is paramount. Surely we should try him paired with Austin

we always seem to be last on Motd and so Im sure we wont be disapppointed tonight

Yes Oldknow may have been at the club pre Liebherr, but he was also talking to MLT consortuium lol. Your dislike of NC is pretty obvious but whatever you may like to think NC had ML ear and it was him who pushed us under the nose of Marcus. Oldknow was allowed to leave whilst ML was in the background if my memory serves me correctly. I suggest he thought more of NC than anyone else at our club. You might not like it but ML trusted him. I have no gripe with Oldknow btw

i dont agree. Oldknow came in later. You have had your agenda all along and so we will have to beg to differ.

they have to create some first!

Im sure he was not the nicest person, but forget not his idea of putting the club under the noses of the Liebherrs got us to where we are. No SISA, no MLT consortium etc I think instead of listening to bitter people wanting to pull him down perhaps Marcus Liebherrs drive when he was near his passing away to go and deliver the watch shows how the great man thought of him. For me that is a testament to NC. If only Marcus could have survived another 10 years and the dream of CL football and even the PL may have come true. Im sure he would have grasped the opportunity to invest in the team if we had looked like making the CL

when Liverpool are in the mood they do play quick insisive football. They deserve to be winning, as much as i dislike them you have to appreciate their skill and movement up front. The back a bit comical. In time we will get used to our players at the top clubs but it does hurt to see our past stars contributing to these games.

so the 3 become 2 lol
