I think I would go for ; Toby Alderweield Solomon Rondon Moussa Dembele Icardi Dzeko Quincy Promes Get rid of some dead wood As for the manager Keep Hughes
-
Ok she still has a say but your right and No Markus no club As a director she is a custodian to the business Retrospect nowadays it is not a club for fans it is a multi million pound business, like it or not they don’t care if we go to games or not. They will run their business to their models not ours, they will have who they see fit to manage it We as supporters have absolutely no say in what goes on at Southampton FC The other thing I missed on the original post is the whole playing squad should taking some flack for poor performance If any of us were that consistently poor in our jobs we’d be sacked

Pellegrino - out of depth from outset Les Reed - Never delivers what he promises Ralph Krueger - got more spin than a Fun fair ride Kat Liebherr- will never diss her or her father end of Mr GAO - seen less than Lord Lucan riding Shergar since taking over Overall The fans can see the footballing problems, bit none of the above seem to to want or be able to manage the situation Championship football is imminent, and again more disappointment for the fans Even if we changed managers we are on a knife edge Home to City on the last day - let’s hope they field their under 14’s against us! But this is a trend of Europa to relegation a couple of other clubs have gone the same way Keep the faith - stay up or go down we will always support our club

Will you support another south coast team?

Your football club is for life not just the Premier League -
Nuts and bolts is our team has been tactically crap since Koeman and Sammy Lee left the club
-
Could this be another Les Reed “ Get your hopes up day Toby Alderweireld to sign...... Ronald Koeman to stay....... Really hope we take this player on board if not buy Giroud
-
Actually Lowe was ousted by Michael Wilde. Wilde spent all remaining money on transfers for George Burley. Lowe had said there was no transfer funds available hence it all went tits up
-
Protest if you want Just remember that regardless of who is the manager the club will still have its fans A lot of our younger fans probably don’t remember 10 years ago This is not FIFA. This is reality of a business having to make harsh decisions to to be competitive. The atmosphere at St Mary’s over the last year has been poor, The Northam is like a library compares to few years ago. Go to the game, get behind the team then vent your spleen at the end of the game.

In all honesty boycotting games won’t harm the club as most supporters are season ticket holders so will have paid regardless. There is a fine line between expectancy and reality We will like it or not always be a selling club It is Southampton’s way of business developing youth players or buying in younger players to make large sell on profits Fans in the modern game mean very little to clubs. With all the tv money and other income, there is a loss of togetherness uniting the club with its bread and butter. Personally I think our bubble has burst, the academy conveyor belt of rising stars has slowed Is Pellegrino the right bloke ? Again it’s opinion, but when you being asset stripped and inherit a team of big time “billy big Beau locks” who some don’t give a toss and want out then getting the balance right would be difficult for whoever was manager

We probably don’t have £75 million in the bank We owe Celtic 10% = £7.5m We possibly had to pay VVD his remaining wages on remaining deal If true he was on £70k a week = 3.5m a year x 6 (£21m) Then we are liable to tax on income, so probably at worse made £20m clear

How do you solve a problem like Van Dijk
The Fat Controller replied to SO16_Saint's topic in The Saints

Take the cash and Ake and Bouma on loan
-
£50 million cash (not giro) and Sakho equates to about what we're after
-
Sam Allardyce and Sammy Lee Or Glenn Hoddle
-
We will get Claudio Ranieri
-
You can see that sort of deal happening. Usual undisclosed fee... and they offer us Sakho as deal breaker Sad that we are a stepping stone, but inevitable that our better players move on. But no one is irreplaceable, so let's hope we buy in new players first before we sell VVD to avoid inflated fees
-
The deal will probably be £50 million plus Sakho...
-
I wonder what Celtic Fans think about us buying all their decent players?
-
Brendan Rogers to Saints?

Gks Forster Hassan Mc Carthy RB Cedric / Pied LB Bertrand/ Target CB VVD/ Cacares/ Stephens / Rannochia (inter)/Yoshi Mid Romeu/ Siggardson(Swansea),Davis / Hojberg/ Clasie Wide boys Tadic / Boufal/ Redmond/ JWP Strikers Austin / Gabbi/ Icari (inter)/Long Off load J Rod / Cuco/ Taylor Actually spend some decent additions
