For what it’s worth I think rusks approach is the closest to right approach we have had this season .. he’s basically saying we have to defend first and try and make games tight .. when you are at a obvious disadvantage quality wise this seems to make a lot of sense .. result didn’t go to plan today but at least he gets it

Martin is a smarmy bullshitter and this is all self promotion as always . He reminds me of the type that tries to be popular with everyone . As a manager he seems bang average and can’t organise a defence . The only reason he was any more successful then Jones or juric is the success was in a lower league

Don’t they have a woman’s team she could have seen over ?

Seems weird to me they didn’t do the same with Sam amo if this is really the case .. I mean it doesn’t take a lot for a young kid to get a ton of hype . SAA could have potentially been worth a lot more if we had given him the game time

Sums up everything wrong with this club prioritise making money on young players over actually competing

To be fair Redknapp was a really good manager for most of his clubs . I know he’s not popular here but hard not to rate him

Nail on head. Lampard like Koeman and hoddle would also command a great respect from the players .lampard is a intelligent guy who whilst not blessed with super physical attributes as a player still managed to be one of the best midfielders in the premiership.. that’s the kind of guy you want coaching your players Also whilst it seems all the rage to go for the upcoming manager like rohl who has no blemishes yet on his record it also makes him a hell of a lot more likely to get poached by a big club if he does do well then say the likes of lampard or cooper . I know some will point to that means he’s done a good job if that happens but surely it’s better to not have the disruption ?

Think lampard could be decent . Plays 4231 has premiership experience .. been great at championship levels in two different occasions and always strikes me as someone who succeeded in his playing career by being smart and dedicated ..

You could argue at least half this current side was built with Wilcox recruitment .. surely it’s a combination of him and Martin that put this terrible side together . We got promoted last year but I would hardly hail Wilcox work as a huge success

Thought we was the better side second half competed well sulemana dangerous and nice assist. Actually feel like juric is starting to get a little more out of them now. Unfortunately we still are so so weak defensively

I don’t really care what they cost as it’s not my money .. same as I won’t get the windfall when we mug some team off for Tyler dibling . I don’t think it’s even a debate that Paul and sully have been better then dibling since juric came in . You tried to pad diblings stats by giving all competitions so he got his two goals but sulemana was head and shoulders motm that day also lastly I have more time for both as they might actually still be Southampton players next season and play a big part whilst your boy swans off to warm the bench with utd or Newcastle or whoever

Pointless comparison sully and Paul didn’t get a look in under Martin . Dibling has had almost as many starts as sully and Paul combined yet still hasn’t much better stats in the pl . also all goals have been close range tap ins .. really he hasn’t done much bar a few mazy dribbles he just gets away with it more as he’s a academy kid let me put it another way if we had shelled out 50-100 million on him people would be criticising the shit out of him with the output compared to value

Shame he can’t play like milt whilst Matt was pure end product and could score from anywhere literally all I’ve seen from dibling is some nice dribbling and it’s not like he’s boufal good with that . He’s done pretty much nothing since Martin left imo all three of sully fernandes and pauk deserve their places more ..

Looks a decent line up . Kwp back on the right. Our better defensive mids starting and dibling out of form And making way ..I like it

Well it certainly would have been better for his value then not playing .. you can’t know that for sure ., I remember at the start of the season russ said something about Tyler being more developed physically which I guess was the reason Sam didn’t get the games

Not really sure what you mean .. when a kid breaks into the first team and shows potential the hype machine starts just as we have seen with dibling ….dibling hasn’t really contributed assists and only couple of goals .. Sam amo was basically In the same bracket as dibling a young kid who can beat players with pace and dribbling hes looked great when he did get on the pitch.. you just seem to be taking the fact he didn’t get the chances dibling did as proof that’s he’s not good enough . He certainly looks better then tella and Nathan dyer did at similar age

If we had played him regularly this season his value could have been big like diblings .. I mean dibling has a 100 m tag on him now just for beating players and nice dribbling, Sam just as capable of doing the same always looked great on the chances he did get .. wonder who made this decision to let him go ?

For me when you look at squad balance ramsdale will be the most difficult to replace. As I said in the other thread you could play Adam Armstrong in diblings position and it’s very very possible Armstrong will have more goal/assist contributions then dibling ..so that sale wouldn’t really hurt us Ramsdale on the other hand we go from having a international level keeper who could be the difference between promotion of not to someone like bazunu or McCarthy his value is worth a lot more to our success next year then a average 20 million transfer fee we will be totally weaker for it .. for me I’d like to see us put a stupid 50m price tag on him we shouldn’t sell just at a average price to please him we should think what’s best for us

Too early to get excited but if spors first big decision is putting a 100 m price tag on tyler He’s winning me over already . Be good if we also put stupid price tags on ramsdale and fernandes too .. we should be looking at what makes us stronger on the pitch rather then does the player want to leave .. for example ramsdale would be a massive difference maker for us next season .. us taking 20 m for him and ending up with bazunu back in goal weakens us dramatically . wiukd be great if we put huge prices on players like this either pay silly money or we keep the player

Props to the club if they really are sticking 100 m price tag on him . Whilst he’s a talented player with high potential I honestly feel That if we stick Adam Armstrong back in his position we will not miss dibling at all next season if armstrongs numbers are similar to last times . Ramsdale on the other hand is not gonna be replaced by sticking bazunu back in championship or not

Me too the difference between ramsdale and bazunu is huge ramsdale makes saves he shouldn’t whilst a shot on goal with bazunu between the sticks is usually a goal .. I get that he probably won’t wanna stay but he would make a huge difference for us so we shouldn’t be letting him for a cheap or even fair price

So what type of fee do we think we should’ve asking for ramsdale at the end of the season ? Some people seem to be saying around 20m so money back. But for me he should be worth way more to us then that, easily best keeper we have had since niemi and also our best player full stop imo Whichever premier league side tries to buy him are getting a no risk international level goalkeeper so it will be a bit annoying if we just sell him for a money back kinda deal

Not sure why you guys are aiming so low we shouldn’t take under 50m imo didn’t we get 60 for lavia ? I’m not diblings biggest fan but being English attacking player and the hype and grealish comparisons should probably make dibling worth more

As much as he’s getting pelters now .. I don’t think juric would be a total disaster in the championship . Not saying I want it to happen anymore but honestly don’t think he’s any worse then Martin

In a thinking about the future positive spin way if this dogshit season makes Sr understand that you cannot compete by signing a ton of Poundland players maybe it could actually be a good thing in the end . I don’t think the trying to buy cheap for profit way is ever sustainable in the end the decent players go and you get stuck with the shit ones that don’t pan out and eventually it ends up in a mess.. it’s not like making a big sale allows us to increase our quality by buying bigger
