To be fair, it’s one of those that is a bit of brilliance, but also a bit of luck. It’s really, really good defending to hold that line, but i always feel like it’s riddled with risk. Maybe I’m just old fashioned and would rather take the risk out and just win the first knock. I guess in the day and age of VAR, your chances of catching them offside are higher.

That is where Broja is at his best. More needed of that.

Yep; how I’ve seen it. Possibly because we’ve been so deep so far, but Redmond certainly playing a lot deeper on that left hand side than he usually would

No chance. We’ll be lucky to spend that post player sales.

Erkisen has pretty much kept them out of a relegation battle and has almost certainly improved their league position by 3 maybe even 4 places which probably pays for the deal it’s self. If livramento is anywhere near as impactful as Eriksen, he’s not here for 3-4 years. At this moment in time, he’s not even as good as KWP so he’s not improving the quality of the side. So, as per the original comment; it depends on your objective. We all know what this clubs objective is.

Do they seriously charge £70, just because it’s on the half way line? Do you get access to saints bar in the concourse for that price? I’m not interested in the ticket, Just curious..

Could you imagine this place if he had achieved with us what he did at bournemouth. Makes me laugh certain people claim he didn’t even do a decent job there 😂

Fair enough, certainly wasn’t pulling up any trees though. Howe has transformed him.

That doesn’t fit the narrative though mate. We’re lucky to stay up.

Yep, their player of the season is Joelinton. A player who couldn’t get a game under the previous manager. Howe has done a fantastic job.

Great news for us if true. Puts him in the market for us to take. it’s not true though. The fans love him, he’s changed the clubs playing style completely, they’re not gonna go back to a park the bus style under Jose.

I actually still think they’ll finish above us regardless of what happens today.

They’ve been on the so called proverbial beach for the last 3 months. We may as well let them enjoy the real thing. maybe it’ll get it out their system as seemingly Ralph can’t.

I know Tuchel 100% did, we spend ages trying to get him

If him being the next to leave is true, obviously… And yes, I along with every single other person you point this out to, know how odds work. A drop of such significance would take a fair amount of money pumped on it and given nothing has been reported in the media (if anything it’s been the other way), to me would suggest ‘inside knowledge’. Of course there is nothing to suggest that inside knowledge is true though.

In fairness, we’re not far off that now. What are we, 1 win and a couple of draws in 10? But you’re right, we’ve never really been in any real danger of relegation even as bad as we’ve been.

Still wouldn’t mind us having a look at Tanganga. Can play anywhere across the back 4 (probably not a great wingback tho, that being said). Suits our model of ‘good player but not quite good enough for big 6, yet) and has the added benefit of being Young, hungry and therefore guaranteed to improve.

Realised he’s taken us as far as he can? Jumping before being pushed? Responsibility being taken away and the new owners looking to bring in someone to help him… which he doesn’t like? Either way, if true, good news as a change is needed.

Just even more shit then. In fairness, he plays in a role which requires a degree of technical ability and you need to be decent on the ball. He’s a kick and run merchant, so doesn’t suit that at all. I’ve always thought he’d be better suited to us up top next to Adams. Surely would have been a better option than Long

Personally, I think both were pretty soft but in the same light, both were pretty stupid and you can see why we’re given. Had both been a little smarter / sly, it’s not a pen and not a second yellow. That being said, I thought Son was lucky to get away with the elbow he threw whilst on the floor. In this day and age, I’m very surprised VAR didn’t take a closer look.

I can’t help but think he would be a terrible coach. He has very little technical ability (or brain) and is basically just quick. Well used to be quick, he’s not any more, hence why he doesn’t make the squad.

Where is Twar? Or is even his love for Ralph dwindling?

Raphina ffs. This place makes me laugh. We can hardly afford top end championship players, let alone top end Premier league players.

Cooper is the most realistic, best option for us imo. Farve wouldn’t be a bad shout either, not sure he suits our model though.

Which Ralph isn’t and is why he needs to go. Finding a style which is sustainable means being tactically flexible, by every definition of being sustainable.
