Comment | Russell Martin Suggests That Agent Is The Problem In Dibling Contact Talks
at 18:34:14
Agents the surgery of professional sport One thing I don't get is why do the club pay the agent who is employed by the player If Tyler signs a new deal we give the agent a fee Why?
I see Football Insider is claiming to have inside information about theRM situation Lying journos should be put in the same brackett as agents |

Comment | Southampton Planning To Keep Faith With Russell Martin But Why !
at 11:47:10
Despite our views they are keeping RM I wonder if there is a master plan ?After all Solak is one of Europe's most successful business men except whe it comes to Saints according to many supporters
As for various sources reporting this. Do you really believe that one of the owners has spoken to ANY journalist and been that frank about it
You may not like the man You may not agree with the style of play but personal insults are not the way to express that
One thing I guarantee is that whoever eventually replaces him will not pick the team that satisfies 100% of fans or make the substitutions when fans think he should
I am not sure about this but I think Rasmus is a shareholder or part owner and not an employee Therefore he cannot be sacked

Comment | Is Russel Martin’s Priority Southampton FC Or His Own Agenda
at 11:52:56
If you compare RM to VC are you also going to compare him with the other 2 managers who went up and back down in consecutive seasons?
I don't believe that any coach playing any system would have kept us in the PL with this squad
Look at it Ramsdale relegated twice before Stevens couldn't get a contract or many games on loan at Bournemouth Bednarek rejected at Villa Diaz failed in Spain Archer not wanted by his previous loan club KWP not bothered because he will leave for another PL club
Who would want the job?

DPeps thanks for the one common sense post on here today
I know that I am currently in a small minority but I want RM to stay and I want to see his style succeed
Anyone who thinks I am unhinged just remember Columbus was the only one who thought the world was round but I think you will find he was right |

Do you seriously believe that you and your daughter,who like me are a bit fanatical about Saints,are joined every home game by 30000 like minded souls ?
I would say that 20 or 21 thousand will be there week in week out The rest are newbie supporters every now and then To keep them coming the product has to be right
A lot of fickle fans want RM gone but if he goes bare in mind that we will lose the little quality we do have
THB,Downes Fernandez Ramsdale to start with will all leave because they are his players They enjoy working with him
Read the Echo article by THB about the possession game
I thought Cotese did a fabulous job as chairman but the timing of the sacking of St Nigel was IMO totally out of order Likewise for what he did last season RM has earned the right to have a season as a PL manager |

at 11:57:16
He has made the same comment before when we gave an ironic cheer to a long clearance After which we had to defend for a longer spell It's certainly not the type of football I want to watch
As for thinking he has lost the fans please explain to me why home games are sell outs |

at 16:48:35
Nick you have a very selective memory The first 9 0 v Leicester,every game under Jones 2 seasons ago were all worse for supporters
You claim to have supported RM but in my memory you were one of the first to jump on the Football Insider and call for a change I suspect you did so to appease the majority of posters
The games continue to sell out despite our position and performances so the product is still good
I like and want the style of play he is trying to achieve and I am happy to yo yo a couple of times to get there |

Comment | Southampton Without At Least 10 Players For Chelsea Clash
at 11:10:53
Never mind missing players what will the "jobs fir the boys" system known as VAR hit us with this time?
The shirt pull against Leicester
The non penalty v Liverpoo
Arsenal's 2nd goal was off side if you apply the same criteria as in the Brighton game
Bournemouth's first goal should have been ruled out because the quick free kick was taken from the wrong place
Mannings dialled goal v Wolves
Wolves second goal after the fowl on Archer
The list is endless VAR have turned off side into a subjective decision Let's keep goal line technology and once perfected auto off side and get rid of the rest |

Comment | Southampton Ready To Trim The Squad In January To Free Up Space For New Arrivals
at 12:11:54
I have just watched Russell's press conference where he states quite clearly that he wants Paul to stay so any comment in a two bit rag isn't worth a mention Stewart isn't going to be fit before Christmas and will then need to be used sparingly so keeping Paul makes sense
Others like Cornet Taylor and a few more will need to make a decision on where they want to be
Most I suspect would rather be on loan at a championship club rather than being a bench warmer at a struggling PL club |

at 10:39:13
If ABK or any other centre back comes in to replace JB that would probably mean our captain would be shoe horned in at LB He would then be face to face with Salah Now that frightens me
If he is fit and training we'll I would select ABK & THB as our first choice centre back pairing anyway |

at 11:41:35
If SR keep faith with RM then players like Fernandez and Dibling will stay Wherever he has coached his players have stayed loyal Downes Wood for example
As for experienced players find me just one who is good and still willing to come here for the fight ahead Remember Lambert How much PL experience did he have
Anyway experience is something no one has until just after they needed it |

Comment | Another Big Premier League Weekend For Southampton
at 14:34:28
The Everton result was a relief as much as anything else You could almost touch it in the crowd as we left the ground
A win at Wolves would enforce that belief After that we need to get results from clubs just outside the relegation fight and the odd point from the Sky Six Easy to say but not so easy to execute |

Comment | What Changed For Southampton Against Everton
at 10:24:24
25 seconds from them hitting the cross bar to us scoring That's what changed against Everton We continued to play the possession game but we did it quicker Or were we allowed to do it quicker? We had 65% of the ball agains
t a team that will definitely be in the relegation battle
Come January the emphasis must be on reducing the size of the squad so that RM doesn't feel he has to please so many players |

Comment | Southampton V Everton The Verdict
at 13:38:05
I thought when watching live that we were lucky that their strikers were as bad as ours Having watched 3 different lots of highlights I now have a different perspective
The save that Rambo made by pushing it over the bar would have been ruled out by VAR because CalvertLewin was in his eye line You actually see him duck to avoid the ball
The save he made at the foot of the post would likewise have been ruled out because a player in the centre of goal was O/s when the free kick came in That's why the game was restarted with a free kick
We know about the one that was netted and the four plus minutes we had to wait were worth every second Why can't we see what Stocley Park are looking at on our screens In televised matches armchair fans see more than we do
One criticism If he wanted to play Stephens as a LB with another defender ahead of him as a wing back/winger then why not a better player than Manning KWP for example with Yuki starting as a RBH |
