Today?

I wonder what the calculations are on Saints fans not giving a ****e?

How does Delph, Barkley, Loftus-Cheek and Henderson get in when they don’t even feature that much for their EPL team? Thought Southgate was doing okay but that England squad is crazy.

Exactly that and this is why Saints players have to leave if you want to play for the national team.

If I was a business then I too would focus more on the majority. Until we build a bigger stadium and start winning games in Europe then it’s not going to change.

Our centre defence is shocking and I reckon we need two defenders for sure.

Same team as the one that started vs UTD and Spurs but swap Ings for Austin. We must attack Brighton hard and don’t sit back plus someone needs to nail Murray as he is an arsel against us. Sims off the bench around 60 minutes should wrap up the 3 points.

I like this. Get yourself two decent centre backs and two good attacking players then we can certainly push further up the league.

Oops I voted Austin instead of JWP by mistake. Who the feck did give him the other vote?

The same could be said about Bertrand but he certainly gave his best vs UTD. IMHO Lemina and Bertrand have been carrying knocks for a while and at times are forced to play.

The highest paid director, assumed, though unconfirmed, to be chairman Ralph Krueger, had a £30,000 pay rise to earn £636,000. So we reward a £30,000 bonus for a disastrous season?

Btw is he French or English?

Shane Long for me with Ryan Bertrand a close second.

We have Jack Stephens for that role when required.

I meant Luke Shaw. Im not surprised you are laughing as I would too.

This guy is getting better and better each game, taking on players, step overs and acceraration is improving each time. Will he be in high demand at the end of the season? I’m pretty sure the top 6 have got an eye on him as he is starting to show the same kind of talent that Gareth Bale did when we had him.

The thought of us trying to sell Austin on the last day of the transfer deadline day is laughable. No way would we of got a replacement in.

If he wants the wing backs to become wingers then why don’t we put natural wingers in that position? Redmond and Sims would offer more going forward with Austin getting on the end of the crosses. Bertrand, Valery, Vestergaard and Yoshi would be good enough as defenders.

The bit I dont get is the players are doing double training and are much much fitter now but they seem to be going backwards. Okay we don’t have any decent strikers that are fit but you would think Armstrong, Moi and Austin would be sharper and stronger than under Hughes.

Totally agree. I bet someone who’s playing Hampshire league standards could do a better job than any fit striker that we have at our club right now. It’s a total mess that we have a headless chicken, carthorse and a championship reject as the only choices.

Play Adams?!? Thought we failed to sign him from Birmingham after they wanted an extra £2.50 which we refused to pay.

He gave one in the last game too, hold on and the game before that? Blimey when does a manager finally think it’s time to drop him for god sake.

He probably got rid of them as he thought he was getting an upgrade. Bet the board stitched him up good and proper like they have done to many other managers we’ve had.

Every team has a striker or two that can dig you are out trouble. Wheres ours other than being on the treatment table?

Play 4 (FOUR) at the back and no Jack Stephens then we might have a chance. Fulham are shocking away from home while Saints are bloody dreadful at home... sorry Saints are bloody dreadful fullstop. IMHO failure to pick up three points here and we are almost down as no game gets easier than this.
