The Kraken Posted 22 May, 2022 Share Posted 22 May, 2022 6 minutes ago, Morse said: One of our problems in recruitment is the unwritten law that all signings must have the potential to be sold on for a profit, ie young and unproven in a top league. All well and good but the occasional experienced player, 30+, often available on free transfers would help the squad develop and widen the net for quality signings. Completely agree. The top sides definitely tend to sign and/or keep hold of 30+s in their senior positions: Gundogan and Fernandinho with Man City. Thiago, Henderson and now VvD with Liverpool. Thiago Silva, Azpi and Kante at Chelsea etc etc. Older, 30+ players who play leadership roles and/or in the spine of the team. With Saints we’ve got Oriel who has just tipped 30 then our other main experienced players are Armstrong, Theo, Long, and the two keepers. Maybe it’s just a numerical coincidence but I don’t think so. We all saw the benefit of having the likes of Keegan, Ball, Case here when they were in their thirties. Football has moved on since then but I don’t think the principle has. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly anyone we’ve signed recently has been a player we’d realistically expect to sell for a profit. Liv being the exception but if you think we shouldn’t have signed him for £5m you need psychiatric counselling. We have signed an experienced, 30+ player in Walcott. He’s just not useless and hasn’t developed the squad at all. He fucking is useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bar Romeu, the others aren't starters and would struggle to make the bench in any other PL team, maybe even some champ teams. I'm not calling for us to go and buy lots of 30 somethings, but we need to look in the market of 24/25 year olds who have already 'achieved' things and are ready to take the next step. Similar to what we did when we signed Mane, Tadic, VVD, Wanyama, Lovren etc. We've got to get back to that, and for that we need to spend more money than we have been sadly.

Even Long, when we signed him 8 years ago, was £12m (about £25m in today’s money).

We are on a downward trajectory with this prick . Not even a clap at our end from this prick 😡 Well, on balance I think I remain in the 'Pro Ralph' camp, but that's conditional on the new owners doing three things: 1. Replacing the coaching staff. All of them. They're fucking shite. 2. Forcing Ralph to get an Assistant Manager. Ralph is capable of getting us playing good football, but he needs a knowledgeable and experienced partner to help him in the situations in which he struggles, and to provide other plan B options when shit on the pitch ain't working. 3. Investing a good three figure sum into the squad. We need first team ready signings, not just promising youngsters, and of course a reliable, quality striker. Also, let's get some proper Prem experience in the heart of defence and midfield - a couple of 30 somethings who've maybe even won stuff or at the very least challenged for honours, and are perhaps looking for their last decent contract. Then we build around them with youth. If the above isn't going to happen then there's clearly no point sticking with Ralph, as three years in he's still struggling to achieve any progress with what we've currently got. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vancouver Saint Posted 23 May, 2022 Share Posted 23 May, 2022 Well. Thank goodness that season is over. Like many others here I have been following Saints for over 50 years. That last run was as bad as I can remember. One (fortunate) win against Arsenal saved our bacon. How we went from the high of beating Tottenham away (the best game of the season for us IMHO) and the new owner takeover optimism, to the low of that awful run after Villa....I don't know. Trying to stay sane. Need to bin my hard drive default of 'how are we going to devise a way to lose?' which has become hard-wired. Ralph has one window for me - first 10 games of next season. The new owners have the summer to show us their intent through recruitment and transfers. If we don't buy a new goalkeeper (we should be calling Nick Pope right now) - then I will know we are not serious about overhauling our squad. Apart from JWP and KWP, possibly a fit Stuart Armstrong and Che Adams as back-ups, who else would you keep? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing about away games is that our fans who sing and make the most noise are forced to stay together in one big group so there are enough of them to make themselves heard. At home they split themselves into two groups in the corners of the away end. They effectively divide themselves so the away fans can rule. The obvious thing would be for them to all get behind the goal at the Chapel end, which is supposed to be our home end. The police would have no objection to this. I know that such a suggestion will be met with cynicism and laughter. It always is and that perhaps is the problem of Saints support.

redkeith Posted 23 May, 2022 Share Posted 23 May, 2022 Up until the drop ball it was a nothing game. Two shit headers from Lyanco though ! Their 2nd goal should have been stopped in their half. Any time we threatened a similar move, Tielemans just gave away a free kick, but JWP played nice. Can't help but admire the way that Leicester break at speed. When Ralph took over, all the talk was of getting a shot of within 7 seconds of winning possesion. Now it seems to be 7 minutes. This is the big change that I would like to see next season, a few players who's first thought is to turn forward and get at the opposition . At the moment we give teams so much time to get the wagons into a circle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
