Who'll be left?
at 17:44 23 Jul 2023

Even though there’s ages to go before the transfer deadline, I think yesterday’s game gave a little more sense not only of how RM’s team will play, but of who will be featuring.

First, let’s subtract the players slated for leaving, or with lots of speculation at least: Livramento, KWP, Salisu, ABK, JWP, Lavia, Aribo, Alcaraz, Tella, Suleman, Adams, Onahachu

(I doubt all of them will be leaving of course, and keeping just three or four of them would be a massive boost. But if they did it could be a haul of about $300 million!)

If they all did leave, I think we can look at the following as the core of the squad:

GK: Bazunu, McCarthy

FB: Bree, Manning (Perraud?)

CB: Bednarek, Stephens, Caleta-C

MF: Smallbone, Charles, (S. Armstrong?)

AM: Edozie, Djenepo

F: Mara, A.Armstrong

I put in Perraud and S. Armstrong, because I’ve heard no rumors about them leaving).

I’d expect some youngsters to be in the squad: Amo-A, Ballard, possibly Dibling and Meghoma.

My conclusion is that some wise spending will need to be done from the sales...especially up front and in goal!

What ya think?

Walcott?
at 01:08 19 Oct 2022

Ralph seems to have been preparing the ground for starting Theo Walcott @ Bournemouth. I haven't spoken to a single Saints fan (or Everton fan) who thinks that would be a good idea. But maybe we're all missing something? What could be the reasons for even thinking about starting him?

predict the IX?
at 03:56 13 Aug 2022

It's harder to predict the team sheet than the score against Leeds. Nobody (probably including the players) has any idea what team the arrogant genius is going to pick for today.

This is the IX I think he SHOULD START
Bazunu, KWP, Bednarek, Salisu, Perraud, Lavia or Romeu, JWP, S.Armstrong, Aribo, Adams, A.Armstrong.

Here's what I think the madcap will produce:
Bazunu or McCarthy, KWP, Bednarek, Stephens, Salisu, Djenepo, Lavia, JWP, Romeu, Aribo, A. Armstrong or S.Armstriong

Either way, we're gonna lose 1-3.
