| News Comment | Big Big Game For Russell Martin At Bournemouth at 17:05:52
The stats would suggest that he has implemented a lesser possession based style Against Ipswich we saw Rambo at least attempting to ass the ball to players on or near the half way line Not always successful but it made us less predictable The number of good chances increased as did the accuracy of our passes Talk of sacking RM and disbanding the board are premature and we'll OTT |

Had a chuckle at the above Thank you Being a bit more serious now This is a chance to give the fringe players another run out After this round it gets serious Who knows can RM follow Puel? |

The Morsy shot was bound for row R in the chapel end if it hadn't got the deflection Overall a much better performance Will Archer be a ketchup striker At least he's getting into the right positions Less playing out but Rambo needs to improve his distribution Too many under hit passes when he tried to get the ball to a player near the halfway line. I enjoyed this game and I can see improvements in what we are trying to do I am always the optimist and this performance went someway to justifying that The club should publicly deny reports of RM being sacked It all seems to stem from one on line rag. Football Insider Is it run by a skate? |

| News Comment | Southampton Already Have Their Target To Replace Russell Martin at 11:06:35
Our board members who used to be at Brentford are statistics mad Our stats ie possession XG goals etc are good so I don't see them sacking RM for a while yet Someone needs to look at our defensive set piece coach To many goals conceded from cornerst |
| News Comment | Southampton V Ipswich Town The Preview at 15:52:18
It's BBD or Archer I agree that the Red Wall Northam hasn't really happened Tomorrow would be a great time for it to come alive I am not fan of 3 CB's s I would go 4 3 3 Sugar THB JB Taylor Downes Fernandez Ugochukwi BBD as a conventional centr forward with Dibling and Frazer as his wingers On the Bench KWP Lala Stewart Sam Amo Armstrong Archer ABK Aribo |
| News Comment | Southampton At Everton The Carabao Cup Verdict at 15:19:46
Not much of a watch but a win is a win It wasn't so much being robbed of the ball by Everton pressing but more badly placed passes. AIt needs to be a bit quicker and a bit more direct h Ipswich did us twice last season so on Saturday we will see if any lessons have been learnt |
| News Comment | Will Fate Once Again Force Russell Martin's Hand at 17:30:51
With any luck JS will now be banned for more games He has been charged with using foul and abusive language to the ref and fourth official when he was dismissed He knew what he had done and it was a clear red card offence His inclusion week after week is, for me,Russell Martin's biggest and mos consistent fault which hopefully will now be corrected The last time we were in the PL the three relegated teams all changed their manager Let's do it differently and keep him |
| News Comment | Southampton V Manchester United The Verdict at 13:50:33
Stephens out for 3 matches THB not playing well Alternatives are ABK and the seemingly forgotten Charley Taylor who has played CB and LB I do wonder about KWP at LB but if he returns to RB Sugawara dips out That would be unfair The m/f looks pretty good with Tyler Ugchuckwu Fernandez and Downes We need a front line that includes an out and out number 9 Armstrong,Diaz,Archer, Tall Paul and Ross Stewart are all candidates As for RM I firmly believe that what he achieved last season entitles him to have this season to try and prove he is a PL coach |
| News Comment | Jan Bednarek Pens New Deal At St Mary's at 18:18:10
For a long time many have said we need an experienced CB If Jan was a new signing would he be viewed as that? I hope the last 2 years has been an eye opener for him and that he has learnt from them He lost his place in the latter months of Ralph's era because he had an obsession for youth ie Salisu and ABK |
| News Comment | Southampton Look To End 21 Year Old Hoodoo Against Manchester United at 11:45:36
Don't let Bednarek score We always lose when he does Let Frazer or Sam Amo run at Maguire to get a free kick or pen He must start a different team to the last 3 matches Perhaps give Ramirez 60 minutes and Dibling the last 30 Can't see Diaz starting after that much travelling so Archer and Cornet to lead the line |
| News Comment | The Knives Are Out For Russell Martin In The Media But Do They Have Substance at 12:37:17
Don't change the way we play Just play it better by using the players we have bought We assume that we bought them because they are better than what we had Those knocking RM are the same ones who were saying we would get relegated to L1 this time last year if he didn't change his style of play I would keep him even if it does mean relegation At least we would have a coach capable of getting us up again In our last PL season we had 3 managers Leeds and Leicester had 2 each so changing managers doesn't work Wise up and get behind the team and their manager |
