Sorry Fats, i mean league. I'm not saying we'll get Europa but we need to be looking towards that if you believe "the Journey " hype we've been fed to date. If the club need to consolidate for a season or two then so be it but we seem quiet and a bit stagnant at the moment. Spending big isn't guaranteed even if we get a takeover but i feel we're more in a battle with Bournemouth, West Brom, Swansea than the Europa challengers. I will happily eat my words come May.
Putting thread back on track......Pied looked good again i thought, More than capable back up for Cedric.
My worry is that if we put in a poor show against Sevilla and then go on to lose to Swansea, how long before the knuckle draggers begin their tirades?
Depends who their tirade is against tbf. If it is against the manager then it would be stupid, if it is against the board for the way the transfer window has gone then they may have a point
Just watched 'highlights' of last night. Totally different to being there, but the only difference seemed to be that Augsberg took every chance, whereas Saints did their usual hatful gone missing routine. Things can only get better as a well known warmonger once said. Blue writing that last bit before Jeremy's urban warriors bite back.
I'd be more than happy with another top ten finish, possibly another cup run and the continuing development of players like JWP, Pierre, Boufal, Targett, Stephens, McQueen, Hesketh, Gallagher and Sims. Not qualifying for the EL cannot be seen as failure for a club of our size.
Sevilla are a good team who last weekend demolished Arsenal, who are considered slightly better than SFC. It will be no disgrace losing to Sevilla, if it should happen.
i am not sure that we are going to have good season just looked at the photos of pellegrino - he's not fat enough
he looks a bit timid to me. I've only just noticed this. like a puppy dog that just been let off the lead https://southamptonfc.com/news/2017-08-02/mauricio-pellegrino-post-southampton-fc-augsburg
I watched the first half....both teams had good spells...then Augsberg scored an excellent goal. I would agree....which is why we needed a win/draw against Augsberg....not good to go into the season with 2 losses (from a fans POV anyway....I assume the players are more sensible ).
i am getting more and more concerned i have just noticed JWP has had a trim and it doenst work has he been to supercuts? they could have done it for £17
If those things happened, the board may do more than planned in terms of transfers #alwaysasilverlining
Some return for the new season looking like kids starting a new term....if they cut it really short, they hope it will last till Xmas.
