Comment | Saints Set To Agree Deal With Keeper
at 15:32:44
Disappointed if true. Even forgetting his inability to play out from the back McCarthy is not a really good keeper when we are under the cosh! Money must be tight but a false economy for me. |

Comment | Liverpool Put £20 Million Price Tag On Saints Target
at 15:11:13
Certainly a position we need to fill. Especially if Alcaraz is being moved on. Lallana will only be a part time player in that position which I feel is key to survival next year. I know little about this lad. |

Comment | Southampton Linked With Move For Fulham Midfielder
at 13:22:36
Agree with the post. We don't have the money to pay big transfer fees. I hope we make a few additions, manage to
keep Downes KWP and Frazer and add some free transfers/ loans. I also really hope that Alcaraz, Edozie, Charles and Kamaldeen can make the grade this year and start becoming the players we hoped they would be. |

Comment | Southampton Back For Third Attempt To Sign Defender
at 16:58:43
I think from RM's perspective Stephens and Bednarek tick the "experienced PL central defenders box". So I think the fourth centre back has to be one currently in development and not necessarily first choice. £5-8 million on Wood seems plausible. |

Comment | It's Official Adam Lallana Returns To Southampton
at 11:39:20
My memory is of the Cortese/Pochetino cult going sour with the inevitable break up of the team. Lallana was just part of that and the media only ever see our players as additions to the rich elite when we are doing well. Don't care about the past but wonder how much he has to offer in a relegation battle. |

Comment | Southampton Linked To Reunion With Armando Broja
at 15:40:28
Agree with last comment. Hope it's just lazy journalism that links us with Broja, JWP, Ings, Lallana etc. New start, give the promoted players a chance and add some genuinely new faces ( plus Flynn Downes of course)

Comment | Southampton V Stoke City The Verdict
at 13:25:01
This time last year Saints were a shambolic embarrassment with a bloated squad full of youngsters and under achievers. An awful lot has been achieved over the year and a fourth place finish is about right for this group of players and the manager. Cardiff knocked the stuffing out of a tired squad and Leicester and Stoke have benefitted. If RM and the players manage to turn this around and get to the play-off final they will deserve real credit for their resilience. |

Comment | Alex McCarthy Or Joe Lumley That Is The Question For Russell Martin
at 11:16:34
Good points about game time and relative experience. I'd personally commit to Lumley as he will be here next year whether we go up or not. However, I expect RM's decision will be primarily determined by his goalkeeping coaches who work closely with them every day. |

Comment | Southampton V Coventry City The Verdict
at 10:39:31
I thought the game showed how evenly matched so many of the sides are and it's is often down to the "rub of the green". Saints were unlucky against Middlesbrough and Ipswich and got lucky tonight. There is an inevitable tendency to retrofit performances to results when often it's a single individual error, piece of skillor slice of luck that determines the outcome. |

Comment | Defence Is The Best Form Of Defence
at 11:30:46
I think Leicester and Leeds have better squads and most observers would have them above us. We have been competitive and in the mix for most of the season, played attacking passing football but with the same vulnerabilities as most championship sides - strikers miss chances and defenders make mistakes. It makes it an exciting league. Get behind RM , IS and Saints and enjoy the last nine/ ten games! |

Comment | Southampton Promotion Campaign Will Go To The Wire
at 14:38:00
I'm just really enjoying Saints winning most weeks. If we end up in the playoffs and even if we don't go up, it's still been a brilliant season as far as I'm concerned. The EPL is horrible, over hyped by the endless pundits, VAR and a miserable atmosphere as we struggle to stay up along with every club outside the top eight. Obviously I want us to win every game and be promoted but I see next year in the Prem as the price we have to pay for a great season this time around. |

Comment | January Transfer Window Mixed Bag For Southampton
at 09:15:07
Surely problem for Holgate was the number of loans available in a match day squad. I believe it is 5 only so if Brooks, THB, Downes and Fraser are starters it was either Rothwell or Holgate on the bench. |

Comment | Alcaraz Set To Complete Loan Move To Italian Giant
at 13:27:46
It really seems that Saints promotion push is being based on solid experienced championship players rather than exciting potential. I think Edozie and Kamaldeen will become the substitutes with a front line of Brooks, AA, Frazer. If you add KWP, Bednarek, Stephens, Manning, Downes, Smallbone, Rothwell and Stu there is a lot of experience now. |
