Return To Southampton First Team Squad Down To Dibling Says Still
at 20:41:20

We need to be balance and we need to play to what strenght we have. The club is being disrespected mercilessly by Premier League Clubs and the media. Yes we need to thin the squad to reduce wages, but is this really the sum of our ambition to sell all our PL quality players , buy Championship ones, get promoted play as a Championship team in the PL get under 20 points then recycle. iTs not sustainable our bloated squad of PL failures is testmient to that.

Personaly i'd take the 40 million proft on dibbling and wait till January defore doing anything else. We will either be close to promotion and able to attract better players or cut adrift but in a better possition to move matty o to a team thats pushing for Europe

Tyler Dibling Trains Alone As Southampton Supporters Say Club Should Sell
at 18:34:11

Googled who is agent is and its ROOF, They are basically a nameless agency. Seems to be dancing closly to 3rd party ownership if they have the power to overule the player and his familiy. They must have a serious contract with him. Their website reads like they are deveoping players . Their promo video talks about how everyone is a team. Its bazare and its where the moeny in football is going.

West Ham Make Enquiry For Saints Midfielder But Get Knock Back
at 21:54:38

We paid a championship team championship wages to play in the Premier League last season. We made a sizable profit. We look like we are getting 4m plus 120k a wages coverd for Ramsdale and we have are already well in credit after selling dead weight. From the comments that have been made by Russel Martin and SR it was always the intention to keep our better players this season and add to them should we get promoted. I wouldnt be suprised if Ramsdale will be the only player we are disapointed to see go. The only eception I can think of is Dibbling as he effectily only has 2 seasons left on his deal..

Promotion to the Premier League is worth £200m how much would someone have to pay for us to risk that? Barring injury Fernandez will be worth the same or more next season regardless of promotion.

at 22:38:58

We all want to hear that we have signed Haaland. I dont knwo what sports republic are up to? What we need are strikers that are capable to 20 Premier League goals a season. Its pretty simple.

West Ham it is then. I believe they have signed 2/3 other full backs so he will most likely be back up. Underlines the gulf with PL teams really.

Is Former Star Worth A Punt For Southampton On A Free
at 11:37:42

Would be 1.3m thrown down the toilet.

I miss the Cortese days the only time we were not a team that rolled over to players, agents and other clubs. 13m wasnt just good money then it was amazing.

Promoted German Club Interested In Southampton Defender
at 15:10:14

As negativly as people see the last 3 managers , they are professional football manahers and for all 3 to take a pass suggests to me that he was no better thn what we had. I wouldnt be at all suprised if like Danso we dont see him back in the Premier League saying that he is more mature and more exprienced either way Saints was too much too soon for him. Will be glad to see us bank some cash a lighten the wage bill to make way for more incomings.

The Ugly Inside Verdict On Southampton’s 2025/26 Shirt
at 15:33:40

Saw it at the shop yesterday and its the best kit we have had for a while. Looks decent quality good attention to detail. The Red sholder pannels help wi the red/white balance. Yes it would be better if it was striped all over but it would also be better without a sponsor. I glad its not striped with a box or pannel , that always reminds me or Rugby for some reason . MOst of all im glad it diesnt have that sponsor like last year. It was classless and it looked like it had been ironed on at the last minute.

Southampton Target Ex Liverpool Midfielder
at 10:53:55

This seems like a decent punt to me and we should make it happen. We need to be buying players wethink may have a chance in the PL. As fans we need to get used to the fact that no team in the Championship is in a possition to buy PL players.

Look at the Fraser Forster situation. He is available on a free and we could really do with a keeper of that quality especialy if Ramsdale leavies. He is off to Newcastle to be their 3rd choice and fullful the UEFA "home trained" quota. Established players have far more lucrative oportunities in the MLS or Saudi. All really have to offer is oportunity which is why we are forced to speculate on younger players or foriegn players that have a distant hope of playing in the PL.

I ay sign him up . if we can get a loan with a simlar option to buy like THB all the better.

Southampton Make Offer For Bundesliga Striker
at 00:29:21

Wouldnt every championship team like "tried and tested". Really we ned PL quality but the days of getting an ex PL striker in have long gone. With MLS and Saudi money no one drops a division, least of all strikers. with 6 subs there is spce for 6 strikers at each PL club to get game time. I think this stratagy is the only one we have got. The kid has a goal controbution every other game , let hope it happens

We will be doing well to get anything for Aribo or Smallbone. Wages will be the issue for both. 25k a week for smallbobe . 60-70 for Aribo. Who would be mad enough to pay that?

Dragan Solak Puts End To Speculation At Southampton
at 19:30:11

I more was said at the time.. VAR was outragious against saints at the time and media coverage focused soley on us playing out from the back. The derby thing was being mentioned very early on. It was like the rest of the football world was like "dont get clever , now your place". I didnt feel like anyone highter up including RM came out fighting for saints.

Things have shifted and Solak has taken more of a direct role. We have some great players for this level and while it would be mad to assume success Im really looking forward to the season.

Southampton Midfielder On Leeds United Radar.
at 15:59:00

dirk change your pijamas , Saints have jsut enjured a season with minimal investment low wages and PL money. Lazy journalism all over the place has us having a firesale with 50% off . Downes to Rangers at half price and THB belis to West ham at a loss, Ramsdale to anyone as we "have to sell having been relegated". The only player realistically we have to sell is Ramsdale as its safe to asume he doesnt have a massive wage reduction clause in his contract. Shea Charles is on 6k a week who would we get for that? £15m wouldnt make sence. To make an actualy profit we would need to find some similar and pay thier wages for £5m!
