brilliant!! The (likely or certainly top 3) manager of the year not good enough. *****. The reality is that we are a medium sized club but we have a great business model. This means that finishing 7th or even higher is a great achievement. The reason for not finishing top 4 is simply squad size and quality...this is the difference and without the funds to carry 25 internationals on 25-30k+ per week we will always be "hoping"!!!

 

Ban the OP. Clueless.

This is either an elaborately brilliant bluff

 

Or a complete whoosh of a fail

We should boycott the game next weekend. Joke, we should be top 4.

 

Koeman Out.

 

The way the teams that weren't Chelsea played this year, this might very well have been Southampton's best chance ever to qualify for the Champions League. We missed it because our scoring disappeared after January. Had management known that Pelle was going to stop scoring and that the other teams were going to be as weak as they were, they might have made a few more moves in the transfer market either in the summer or in January. But those moves would have come with their own risks. Would we have been as good in the first half of the season if we had two first team strikers to keep happy? Would the money spent on the second striker have meant that we couldn't buy Bertrand in January? Did Liebherr forbid any more spending that could not be paid for out of current cash flow? We just don't know.

 

It is a matter of perspective. From where we were this summer things are better than almost anyone could have expected. From where we were at the end of January, things look almost disastrously bad. Since the average fan was way too pessimistic in the summer and way too optimistic in January, we are probably about where we should be. Since I was not one of the summer pessimists, but I was one of the January optimists, I am less happy than I should be given the season as a whole. I particularly hate that we maybe relying upon Man City (x2) and Arsenal (x2) to qualify for Europe. I am striving to maintain my good sense and save my rants for the election results where they belong.
