Not sure I agree. Most of the players who started would start as the first 11. Jankewitz sent off, he's hardly a first choice, so shouldn't have been as bad as loosing Ings or JWP. Ramsay definitely not a first choice but most players playing are our first choice. It seems when we were on our good run things just happened, now they aren't. Its like tossing a coin
I hope he doesn't leave but as you say 5 windows and 5 permanent signings. If that is the case then more of these matches will arise, and Psychologically it will hard to keep going under the Gao regime.
Getting towards that, as I recall the Cherries last season in the PL. We seem to be on a similar path, but my flickering hope (being a true Saints supporter, hope is eternal!), informs me that we do have players that can come back into the team, eventually and we can turn this nightmare of a period into a come-back. Frankly I've lost interest in this game, let's face it those on the pitch have, but following the last debacle we did get back on track. So come on lads, gird the loins, grit the teeth and hold on!! We will get over this despite recent transfer issues/injury problem/stupid players etc etc!! As long as Ralph is there this lot will pull through, as he says, 'we win together, we lose together'
