Apparently Guly Do Prado has made it known to Nicola Cortese he would like to leave Southampton in pursuit of first team opportunities. Do Prado feels he can't keep pace with the strength of the current side and has asked Cortese to do him a favour and try to push him into one of the better Championship teams.

To all the Guly haters, don't comment saying 'it's about time' or any of that. Do Prado was great for us in seeking our Premiership spot in the first place and showed on a few accounts last season that he still has a reason to be in our squad. But if he feels it is time to move on, I'd like to see him get an opportunity elsewhere.

Good post above, you're right he probably wouldn't be a regular in our first team at the mo, but last season, particularly against Stoke he played very well, good luck to him

He's played very well in the pre season build up too. He looks fit and sharp.

Good luck to him! He's still a saint?

It's about time

I think this is a load of BS but I could be wrong. He is a big man called in to do a certain job at certain times. I think he will stay another season at least as he is still on the bus and did well in pre-season.
Why would he put himself in the same position as Sharp, people want him but can't afford his BPL wages. Guly knows he is on a good thing at Saints and he will get some games this season.

Thought he actually looked one of the better players in pre season, his roles changed over the last few seasons from an out and out goal scorer to a winger and I think he got some unfair criticism from not scoring so often, made a few mistakes but not one player who played last season can say they didn't make a mistake and I think Guly was singled out more than he should have but definitely showed in a few games last season he could do the business

Cant see this happening unless we are ringing in more players. It is obvious that we are building a squad with depth & only a small batch of players are going to be played in every single game. Rotation is going to be key going forward & the players i'm sure are aware of this.

I can remember going to the lane last season and Guly went about his job well and keeping Bale quiet, Guly gets subbed then oh f*ck Bale scores! Would be sad to see him go but he would have a lot to offer for a lower half prem team or champ team. If you do go gul me old mucker cheers for the memories dude!

Surely a joke, guly is offside nearly as much as pipo inzagi. lol

Personally I do think it's time he leaves, personally he was hardly good enough in League 1, in the Champ he was pathetic and in the Prem he constantly gave the ball away and with a gaping open goal blazed the ball 10 yards over, I'm sorry but we do NOT need players like that. Thanks for the help Guly but now it's time to leave and good luck for your future

Daddyriche, you clearly know nothing about Saints or Guly.
Whatever the criticisms of Guly, none of them is that he loses possession.
And to refer to one disputed goal miss on a rebound from last season to support your "expertise" emphasizes your ignorance.
