We better not accept the offer of Matt Targett and a couple of millions for Dibling. Just get better players from elsewhere. I feel like Targett will become a Fraser or a Stewart.

The Independent is quoting Will Still as favourite. He has just left Lens.
What are people's thoughts?
Seems to have done well in France.
Young guy, new league, partner with medical issues and a club in crisis. It's a lot on his shoulders.

This would just be another punt - and the others didn’t work out well.
We need someone who can rebuild a totally broken spirit - our team are damaged beyond repair. As I have said previously, it will be a good 3 years before we are able to compete for PL status. Once our squad has been asset stripped we will be on the same level as Norwich, Blackburn, Millwall and QPR.

With that bunch of underachievers we’re all going to Hell in a handcart. Seriously, where are the winners amongst that lot?
We are also making assumptions that clubs will want to pay serious money for players who have proved they cannot compete.
Guys, please get real - we are where we are for many reasons and not least because they are simply not good enough
06 May 2025 07:07:18
Hi @Millertime,
I am going on what I think will happen, not what I want to and I share your deep disappointment.
I think two or more seasons in the Championship might actually be good for us. Bring through promising youth, gel a new generation together and ease off the pressure.
I think the above could snatch us 6th with a good manager.
06 May 2025 21:57:58
A root and branch culling is certainly required. We need a cultural reset - we are devoid of ambition in the Board Room and that translates into low expectation through the club and onto the pitch.
A couple of seasons in the Championship may well be the answer - I don’t know?
07 May 2025 06:47:06
In an ideal world, we would keep KWP THB, Dibling and Fernandes, sell a lot of struggling players for 100m and bring in some quality players on loan to buy deals.
Remember the Cortese, Fonte, Lallana and Lambert days?
11 Apr 2025 08:34:03
We could be about to see a complete 180 by Southampton.
Russell Martin has been in discrete talks with the board about returning as manager in the summer.
13 Apr 2025 08:36:25
Well that would please at least one fan. Good morning Lesleee!
09 Apr 2025 13:25:59
According to TBR football we are trying to o get Stevie G as a manager.
Bro failed in Saudi ane his replacement at Aston Villa has turned that club around.
Obv not a amazing and valid source but its the most Southampton thing to do is not sign the manager we need but pick a free agent that would do something right.
10 Apr 2025 04:14:58
Should the two current favourites become unavailable for any reason then Saints FC could turn to the well rested, proven and outstanding Coach Steve Cooper followed by Frank Lampard and Michael Carrick. KOM.
26 Jan 2025 21:53:20
Albert Grønbæk - loan/buy option DONE
Andre Garcia - 2M + sell on clause
Dániel Gazdag - 5M + add ons - agent currently stalling contract talks
26 Jan 2025 10:50:39
Any good Championship players outside the top 10, who we can snap up now, with the carrot of playing in the Premier League and better hopes of promotion next year?
Norwich player is current league top scorer for example.
26 Jan 2025 15:19:51
It’s a good shout but then again Armstrong is decent in the champ but dog sh! te in the prem.
26 Jan 2025 15:46:23
Van Ewijk, Rudoni, Hume, Sainz, Sargeant, Morris, is about it if you take away clubs that will probably be promoted and players already owned by premier league/ foreign clubs.
26 Jan 2025 18:57:44
Some interesting options there. Thanks @2408 I am thinking players for next year and could make the full Prem step up in a year or two.
Could do with a RB like Van Ewojik/Hume if KWP and Sugawara go,
A scoring winger like Sainz if Sulemana/Dibling/Edozie go
Rudoni for Aribo, if he is really on his way
Sargent/Morris to replace Archer/Onuachu
Let's be honest, the good ones would prefer Leicester or Ipswich at the end of the season, or a promoted side but maybe can get a jump on and secure one or two.
24 Jan 2025 00:29:02
Looks like Juric isn't going to last and we are going to try get Rohl at the end of the season.
Maybe SR is starting to make the right calls.
19 Jan 2025 22:17:14
Two incoming this week:
Albert Grønbæk - loan/buy option
Dániel Gazdag - 5M + add ons
18 Jan 2025 13:41:40
Hi Guys,
I told you 6 months ago that Saints were negotiating the signing of Sverre Nypan. They have messed around and now all the big boys are looking at him. Saints are also losing a lot of young talent because they are messing around over extended and new contract offers. Moder has been sold by Brighton for 1.2 mill to PSV as he is soon out of contract, good player that we have missed! At least Cornet looks to have left🤞.
No rumours of signings just departures atm.
17 Jan 2025 16:30:47
A much better performance against a poor man u side, we deserved at least a draw but we're let down by the same old defending mistakes, what on earth was going on for the last goal , with time running out and big Paul on surely the ball should be first time straight down the middle, great to see sulemanda absolutely roasting the full back and with a calmer finish we could have had more goals, once again poor substitutions have let us down, onwards to Sunday and hopefully a good result will follow
17 Dec 2024 10:03:27
Kasper Hjulmand yes please
17 Dec 2024 23:32:47
It’s a done deal. Most likely announced after the Liverpool game.
18 Dec 2024 02:52:47
Who 2208? Danny or Kasparov?
20 Dec 2024 08:41:31
Juric here we go boys. Hold on to your hats: heavy metal here we come👍👍
08 Jan 2025 10:22:05
Heavy Metal wa*k. The Brentford game was literally like having RM back in the dugout!
16 Dec 2024 18:36:38
I keep hearing about Kasper Hjulmand being the potential manager does anyone know if he's going to a be a leader and not turn out to be another Jones and Martin?
Also keep hearing about Danny Rohl who was our old assistant manager
And one article mentioning a spanish manager at WBA.
Thoughts on who should be at the helm of the club?
17 Dec 2024 13:25:43
Tuttomercato also reporting Juric is also now in the frame
15 Dec 2024 22:45:47
Great news, but who wants the poison chalice. Maybe 1 of us guys should try? (We can’t do any worse)!
16 Dec 2024 10:49:24
Always up for a challenge and at least we would instill some pride and fight into the players! COYRS
