Give it to Ron

In fairness to Jamie White he had a terrible leg break in a game at Staplewood I was at and lucky to play again

The 3 most physical sized players we have TP, ABK and Big Les hardly played under Martin

Weird stuff? I thought I had seen it all with Martins 60 yard apart strikers but 2 right backs with no outlet playing best chance of a goal out of position then scapegoating is a different level. Sacking Martin wasn’t wrong replacing him with Juric and his batshit ideas is. Gronbaek starts at Liverpool yet dropped - we play well with 4 at back yet reverts to a mad formation . Lallana signing is just another example of stupid recruitment has anyone seen Wee Man is he hiding? Its a terrible squad managed by bat shit management owned by people that want to re-invent what’s wrong being normal and doing things sensible?

I wasn’t bothered about the Stephens for Aribo sub that’s just one centre half for another 🙂 Taking off Fernandez was pathetic

If you think we made a game of it yesterday then think you were either watching a different game to quite a large number of people around me, in the pub and who I went with or you don’t have a scoobie or posting to get bites. Wolves were terrible we were worse due to the formation and team selection if you can’t see that then I’m wasting my time answering you. You posted recently about the players recruited being the wrong type physically which I totally agree with so there is hope for you.

How can it be a downgrade on yesterday? No striker in a game we could win, 2 right backs doing nothing as no outlet, our best midfielder out of position and then subbed and scapegoated? Free headers with 5 at back and forwards just running and never closed down despite doing well with 4 at Liverpool. The players clearly not playing for him just how can it be a downgrade where and what?

71% possession and 0 shots for one thing

If it’s Frankie Bridge I’m interested

Southampton’s Premier League record under Sport Republic’s ownership: 84 matches 13 wins 14 draws 57 defeats 78 goals scored 176 goals conceded 15.5% win percentage 53 points from a possible 252 2 relegations* Needs more than a retro shirt doesn’t it !

Watch the 4th goal if you need evidence of that. Loads on social media pointing it out

Even though we didn’t sign a decent forward we needed? We need better physical players , pace, power and ability we have spent over 200m to have this shambles of a squad.

What did they do in 3 months that makes you ignore the results and also Bazanu was one of theirs!

I don’t disagree at all my mate and I are always saying we haven’t had a Wanyama for far too long. We need a Stephen Nzonzi, Doucoure type in midfield, a Pelle up front, pace and power throughout the team to compete in the Prem. I am not going to pick on Smallbone but he is a classic example what’s wrong here. Some are putting a lot of faith in Spors - given SR couldn’t know a decent employee if it bit them I think as a club we are in trouble.

Physical attributes meaning the recruitment is wrong for type of player? I have been saying for years our academy is wrong and we just sign small technical players - I used to see first hand how they got battered by the West Ham, Brentford etc big lads. It seems to have changed recently. The last 3 years recruitment has been abysmal and why we are here now.

Why did we sack the manager it was oh so good watching that game….fwiw I don’t think Martin is the worst ever. The blame is solely SR and our recruitment in the last 3 years. Juric isn’t the answer either but let’s see what happens in summer.
