To anyone saying Ralph needs to leave needs a reality check, he's been one of our best managers, definitely during the post-poch/koeman era.

What you guys aren't looking at is the dodgey boardroom. I don't think they care too much for the club, just looking to make a quick buck and when they do they're offload onto someone else. With that in mind can't really blame Raplh if his hands are tied. Also previous managers had the wealth of our youth pool, which has all but been ran dry now (not many youth talents in a while) so has to work with what he has. Bringing livermento in for the price they did was genius.

The only issue I will say is the keeper situation. I think maybe Ralph and the board looked at it and thought ok 'weve got 2 ok keepers, we don't need to worry' .but for me that's the one place for a long time that's needed changing. For the mean time at least play Forrester! McCarthy is and always has been crap, only ever saves what's shot right at him. Sort the keeper situation and your see a different team .and watch everyone loving Ralph all again

I remember once there were a collection of saints fans calling McCarthy for England ., I bet those are the same people calling for Raplh to leave. No clue

If you think the only problem with Ralph’s team selection is the goalkeeper, I’m not sure you’re watching the same team?
His team selection, tactics and substitutions are awful!

Not all, sure he doesn't always get things right but you can see with Raplh he's got a good grasp of the team, how to build it, where it needs to go.

People like you are why we end up getting rid Ralph and ending up with guys like Claude puel and Mauricio Pelligrini
