Comment | Will Still Can Now Wing It In Formation Change
at 13:21:32
Careful Nick You may be turning into a headline writer
Will made his name by playing 4-2-3-1 although it is not written in stone He will change,adapt from game to game as well as in the 90 minutes.Im not even sure he will put out what we would consider to be his best 11 to start the next game We must be patient and allow him time to experiment Even if it doesn't work from the off we must not start calling for his head
It would be good to go back up this year but if it doesn't happen DON’T change the coach |

Comment | So What Deals Did Southampton Do On Transfer Deadline Day
at 10:45:24
Has Ronnie Edwards has made a shaky start to the season Yes but we know from his loan spell at QPR that he can be better I don't know how many positions he has filled so far but we should now see a much more settled team which could help him
Overall impressions are that we have reduced the size of the squad and at the same time increased the quality
Time will tell |

Interesting that you thought Manning was fouled Nick None of the replays have shown it in detail and commentators called it a slip
I don't see a lot of difference between our keepers but Baz probably has the edge because of his distribution
Will must quickly find his best CB pairing who will form a solid triangle with the keeper With Flyn and Shea in front of them we should be much tighter
Fraser and Fellows to give us width,Azaz as the play maker and the in form Archer as the No9
That gives us a strong bench as well Robinson,Stewart,Arma,Downes,to name but a few
Draw your away games,win your home games is the recipe for success The next home game is a must win anyway

When Fernandez was left out of the Norwich squad we all suspected that a transfer was in the offing despite Wills wise words He also left out Stevens and I am clutching at straws that he may also be about to leave
Today could be the last time we see a back 3/5 Once he has the wingers in house I expect to see 4 2 3 1
Happy days ahead |

Comment | Southampton Away In the Carabao Cup 3rd Round
at 11:16:41
Another fiddled draw to keep big money teams apart
IF they are drawn against each other and IF they are playing their euro game in the same week cancel their league matches and play Carabou at the week end They have the rest of the season to rearrange the league game |

Comment | Southampton At Norwich City The Carabao Cup Verdict
at 12:16:16
Things that were good last night:-
Three really good goals
Three different scorers
A clean sheet
A marginally better organised defence
A starting line up that looked positive from the off
Was Alex in goal the reason the back line looked better?
Will has often changed to attack minded players in the last 30 minutes It was good to see two major strikers from the start.Archer and Stewart looked like they may be able to establish a strong partnership They both worked for each other |

Comment | Southampton Sign Goalkeeper
at 20:17:30
From a training perspective we need to have 3 keepers He doesn't need to be able to challenge Baz or Mac It is just a numbers game
Everything our management team do meets with criticism on these threads Whatever happened to wait and see |

Comment | Southampton V Stoke City The Verdict
at 18:28:53
Still has already said that when he gets the right players he will use a 4>2>3>1 formation
The usual suspects are already questioning his appointment For goodness sake after 4 games Really
I want to see how Leeds and Sunderland fare this year having had more time in the lower level to build a team
Since SR took over in Jan 23 we are now on our seventh manager Surely now is the time for a bit of stability and team building
Let's see what squad we have next Tuesday and support them unconditionally from then |

Comment | Portsmouth Fans Not Happy With Travel And Match Ticket Prices For Trip To Southampton
at 18:58:20
The cost of the coach is based on the time that that coach is tied up for Not necessarily on the distance travelled.For both fixtures there is a high risk of damage to the coaches so additional insurance may be needed
At the end of the day if you want to see the game live you need to pay up
Many pubs will be showing this game Is there any restriction on cars carrying the blue few from coming into the city and causing havoc |

at 12:43:46
This is a tough one to call Our defence has lacked organisation and blundered it's way through.Forget who they were playing,Stoke have strikers who are scoring.They will come here confident and up for it
My gut feeling tells me we could well lose this one |

Comment | Southampton Open Talks To Sign Forward From Lens This One Is Quirky
at 11:27:35
It could be that Will had to loan him out because Lens needed the money They have been cash strapped for a few years now
We will only find out if he is any good when he plays.The EPl and championship are littered with players who came in as unknowns and then surprised everyone.
At this stage if Will knows him and wants him that's good enough for me.He said we need wingers if we are going to go to a back 4 |

Comment | Southampton At Ipswich Town The Verdict
at 11:22:36
As in the Wrexham game the result was better than the match
Hopefully we will signe a couple of wide attackers so that we can revert to a back 4. Or one winger (Fellows) and allow Frazer to play as a wingers again.His cross for the goal was spot on but the pass from Fernandez gave him the position and the time At least with back 4 there are only 2 CB's to make cocktails ups
Still likes to be proactive with his subs which is a very pleasant change from the last 3 seasons Let's hope we can keep enough players to have that strong a bench every week |

Transfer noise continues to surround Fernandez so I will be surprised if he starts.Likewise Dibling
At Lens he often played a 4 2 3 1 formation and I think that could fit our squad The only but is Stephens because the best pair at CB are Quashie and THB
With Shea and Flynn protecting them the woyld be pretty solid
A m/f three of Frazer, Fernandez or Matsuki,gand Arma should be able to feed either Stewart or Downes
A bench with attacking options like Robinson,the unused no9 above and Archer could again give us a late finish |
