The problem with making so many changes is that the youngsters in particular, aren't benefitting from being a part of a set up where most players are comfortable with RussBall. Tyler Dibling didn't get any help from Holgate behind him and looked a sorry figure stuck out on the wing. Does Stephens think there is a speed radar on the halfway line and anything above walking pace isnt permitted? Rothwell is by his own admission still learning RussBall and didn't offer much at all. Yep we didn't lose, but no team in a competitive match should be sent out just for match time.... ..it is all about trying to win and give 4000 travelling fans value for money, ok cheap to get in, but everything else mounts up. |
| News Comment | Southampton At Middlesbrough The Verdict at 00:21:28
In the last 20 minutes at Mboro, the way the players were strolling out of defence with the ball at their feet, stopping hands on hips then passing 2 yards to the nearest player, you'd have thought we were 2-1 up! Absolutely no sense of urgency. Nobody making runs, nobody taking the ball and prepared to run with it (besides KWP). And when we did get wide nobody in the box, no runs from midfield. Not sure where they all are as when Boro broke at one stage it was 4 against 1😜 Boro were p1ss poor, could barely string passes together, yet won at a canter. How bad does that make us? |

SM76 has beat me to it. Alongside the fact that we are more likely to win some games, there will be no VAR to kill that spontaneous goal celebration 5 mins later! Just a quick glance at the ref and lino as you leap into celebration mode is all that is needed |
| News Comment | Five Of Southampton's Six Fixtures In April Have Been Rescheduled at 19:11:07
The Newcastle move is a disgrace. Its not being moved to be screened on TV, its due to knock on effect of other games on TV. I think the original date for Everton Newcastle was on Tues but moved to Thurs due to another Newcastle game moved from the Sat to Sun. But why couldnt the Eve New game be shown on Wed instead of Thurs? Travelling Fans once again shafted for the benefit of Armchair Fans. 🤬 |
| News Comment | Southampton Complete 5th Signing Of The Summer at 14:33:47
Calm down mush! The Capital Letters 'YET' is hilarious. The Window, in reality only opened 10 days ago, with players hanging on for their Loyalty Bonus before leaving! Also players are having family holidays etc and have only just starting back pre season training a week ago. There are still 4 weeks before the season starts and 51 days before the window closes! Obiously ideally all deals wiuld be done before Spurs match for players to integrate into the squad, and also any out goings be of our own choice and surplus. This is the thing I hatr most about the window ending so long after the start of the season ..... the possibility of losing a key player late on and no chance of replacing and being held to ransom by selling clubs. I am still worried about not having an experienced CB on the books and if rumours be believed Bedz a confidate for leaving. And yes we desperately need a proven goal scorer. |
| News Comment | Saints Look To Famous Liverpool Thoroughfare For Win At Anfield at 13:38:05
wibbers ...... go wash your mouth out you soft tart!! No it would not be nice at all for them to go unbeaten all season. The Scouse whankaton is bad enough now as it is, and the way Carragher was creaming himself and massaging the ego of Van Dick on The Pitch at SMS after they beat us earlier in the season was truly awlful. I think they spent about 10 minutes post match talking to LFC players. It made me want to hurl. Going all Keeganesque but I would love it, really love it if we were to win. |

Danso is only on loan and no added 'and have to purchase clause' tagged on. Pity we didn't do this with Hoedt and Vestergaard!! Feel sorry for him as he has yet to play a game in his natural CB position and in general comes up against a fast skilful wide player, with especially earlier in the season little support from who ever was playing in front of him. |

Boufal too busy doing the work of JWP and Romeu making 10 tackles to get involved creatively!! |
| News Comment | Silence From The Club Irks The Fans at 12:54:29
All fair points, and it's not as if there hasn't been plenty of time to have got the ball rolling earlier, rather than a last minute clusterphuck. Even stuff like RH's op and recovery ... (has he been seen since?) and his assistant departing have barely had any coverage. It's to be hoped the Media Team have been busy producing more barnstorming Ralph Express videos to announce our marquee signings later today or tomorrow :-) |
| News Comment | Celta Vigo Want Permanent Boufal Deal But Not At The Agreed Price at 13:50:06
I am still in the pro Boufal Camp. Yes he was frustrating at times, but he did make an effort if he lost the ball in my mind. also he has an eye for a killer pass but under the previous managers of slow build ups there was never anybody making any positive runs into space. i'm sure with a bit of good man management from Ralph he would buy into our new style very well indeed. Definitely worth keeping but if he doesnt show a change of attitude pre season then and only then get rid. |

Very remiss not to mention that they have the oldest dug out in the league or something like that!! |
| News Comment | A Rough Guide To Everton at 13:02:23
Alongside fellow scousers Liverpool .... worst view in The Prem if you are anywhere near the back of the lower stand. Not only the stand above blocking the view if the ball goes above head height but also loads of thick pillars blocking the view past the halway line. Those tickets should be shouldn't be sold at full price. Disgrace. |
| News Comment | Saints Could Still Make Another Signing at 04:52:44
Maybe there is a good reason that he didn't play a single game last season and that nobody else has moved in for him ..... 2016/17 was far from reasonable 34 games .... 1 goal and 1 assist .... FFS he makes Redmond and Schlong look like Goal Machines. He's all washed up, hasn't played for a season and isn't a spring chicken anymore. Stay well away please SFC. |
