We take Llalana COME  back but let KWP go on a free instead of giving him a new contract.  What folly,

He did not want a new contract.

We also signed Quarshie instead of van Dijk. Crazy decision by the club.

Walker-Peters was offered a deal new, but rejected it. He'll get big wages to join a PL club.

Nothing but respect for KWP, my favourite player over the last few years. Always played with a smile on his face and gave his all even when everything around him looked hopeless. Quality player. Sad that he's going but he's given us great service.

Good luck Kyle!

He didn’t want a new contract… he let his existing one run down. He wants to move and that’s fair enough. Good luck to him.

KWP is a class act and a loyal servant to us. I so wish he was staying 😔

X 23 !

 

Kyle deserves a testimonial even if they are no longer fashionable. He would get a terrific send off from the fans. Let's hope we see him back here from time to time, the door will always be open and the kettle boiling. A true Saints legend!

One of my favourite players during this period of crapness, since he came here in 2020 he's been excellent for us. Always shows up, always present, hardly ever injured, plays anywhere you ask without moaning.

The one thing that always shocked me is how we kept him in the Championship, a player of his ability sticking with us was ridiculous. He'd have had takers, no doubts, and other players would have kicked up a fuss saying they want out - but he didn't, he stuck to it and gave 110% that entire season.

His last season won't be remembered by many, as it was miserable for everyone really, but I'll always appreciate his efforts in the good times as well as the bad.

I hope he gets a good move and gets some further England caps to his name. He deserves everything given to him.

Just to repeat what I said on the other thread:

At still only 28, he'll be a very shrewd free acquisition for someone. Superb player, superb professional and a lovely fella too. I met him in the players' lounge this season and he couldn't have been nicer, stopping to have plenty of photos with the kids, chatting to them and so forth, which was especially good of him as it was after a defeat (obviously). 

One of my favourite players of the last ten years. A grafter and a class act who will be sorely missed, and I wish him all the best wherever his career takes him next. Would love to see him back in some capacity in the future.

One of the very rare trades to or from Spurs that we didn’t get ripped off. Quality player. Amazing he didn’t leave after we got relegated. I’m sure most of us wish him the best with his new club. 

Indeed, ended up putting considerable egg on the faces of Levy and Mourhino.   One of my favourite Saints players of the last 20 years.  Loved watching his silky skills.  Respected his willingness to stay after the relegation and appreciated his qualities as a good bloke/decent human being.   Go well KWP.

Another genius level performance in mismanagement by the club. How on earth has one of our best players been squandered? Leaving on a free ffs! Truly awful management by the club and a massive loss to Saints.

A factor might be in how he has been treated along the way and played frequently on the left. The way he was dropped for the new best thing Livramento was disgusting

During the 23/24 promotion season there were many times he was our best attacking player and the best defensive player in the same game. We will miss him this season.

Is it really?

When we came down he had 2 years left, there was no way he'd sign in the Championship as he was going to see where we are. Respect to him for sticking around that year in a level way below him.

He only had 1 year left upon promotion and I think in his mind he wanted to see how things settled, if we were pushing mid-table/upper table come October/November I reckon you'd have seen a new deal announcement.

I'm one for calling out the club on all sorts of shit over the last few years, but it's silly to think we haven't tried to keep him - but the timings have all favoured KWP's really, and at the end of the day it's his call and he played it how he felt was best for his career. We didn't just sit there and forget to offer him a deal, believe me.

Another fucking idiot who thinks players have no free will or choice over their own lives and careers.

The club offered him new deals that he didn't sign, not much more they could have done really other than sold him but no big offers received

Great player for us overall, no ill feeling towards him leaving, no particular warm feelings either though as he wasn't part of any great success. He'll go down as a solid servant who did his job, for me.

Class act. Deserved a better team and club than us the last couple of years but stuck to his task with total professionalism. Added some much needed flair in a dreadful season. Wish him well. Think it'll be Fulham who benefit from our loss.

I always think that players who see out their contract deserve respect. Nathaniel Clyne has always done that, and as such there is no bad feeling.

KWP has been excellent for Saints, whether he finds a decent club is down to him now, but I wish him well

Enjoyed watching him as a Saint player and felt he was one of the few who could pick up the tempo in pretty lethargic sides.

Judging by the way he was always having a chat with the opposition after every game, he probably knows where the opportunities are this coming season. Guessing it'll be a London or south coast club.

Good luck to him. In today’s football world showed loyalty when we needed it and given payback for having faith in him when he was not the most sought after player in his early career
