I'm not against Marsch being appointed because he's been sacked. I'm against it as it highlights a staggering lack of ambition other than trying to stay up. Maybe we've just been spoilt with the likes of Koeman and Pochettino, but our current club leadership is an absolute shambles.

It's like David Brent in a different language

Decent pedigree and available, and seems to have been completely forgotten. Get him in

Good summary on SSN https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/12780074/nathan-jones-southampton-sack-manager-after-just-14-games-and-three-months-in-charge

'In terms of stuff' - what the fuck does that mean?!?

Boethius

Bloke on FB reporting he's been sacked, announcement by 11am. No idea if true.

If SR bite the bullet, who's available out there right now who you think could/would be prepared to step in....?

Just no

I'd go with this. He'd unite the fan base without question and if we're going down at least let's do it with some fight and organisation

If we grant new signings time to bed in, how come Bree walks into the starting line-up against Newcastle in a cup semi-final?

Would keep Willy in goal tbh, you can see how much better his control and command of his area is than Bazunu's, even if he is pushing 60. Would start ABK over Salisu and Stuart A ahead of his namesake. That said, I'm expecting 5 at the back and Ely and Walcott to start

https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/23294122.nathan-jones-provides-explanation-southampton-fc-left-back-absence/ Wants 'outcomes' from Perraud. Not sure how 'two goals' would rate as an 'outcome' but you'd guess it wouldn't be deemed as negative??

Post of the day, already 😆😆

Given the amount that we've just spent in this window, the worst and most expensive time.to buy players, you'd think we're relatively stable. It defeats me how the club can spend that much on players but fail to acknowledge where the real problem lies. We are still (for now) a Premiership club and will be attractive to a huge number of managers who want to test themselves or return to this league. Emery and Lopetegui were both available but we dithered so much in dismissing Ralph (which was the right call imo), that those options were no longer available when it came to it. Still can't believe NJ was really the most attractive option out there

But playing KWP at LB and then shoehorning a CB in at RB makes us weaker overall. Play KWP and Perraud in their preferred and strongest positions. We're far more balanced as a team.

This, exactly this. It's just so obvious to everyone watching except our manager.

If the team were set up with four at the back and players being played in their actual positions, I'd be hopeful of getting something out of this game and 3 points isn't unrealistic. Unfortunately, with the clueless prick we've got in charge, we can expect 5 at the back, Ely and Walcott starting in a midfield that gets overrun, a flurry of changes being made after they've scored twice and zero points. Jones is so obviously and palpably out of his depth that it's embarrassing. Get him out now and give us a cat in hell's chance of staying up.

I'm still waiting for it to be ruled out by VAR

Fuck off Jones. Get out of my club

Anyone got a decent stream??

Jeez, how much better does that look?

Hjulmand????
