    Barcelona want to sell Umtiti.

    I know, but let a man dream.

    Isn't it Lawrie Mac's 2nd place finish.

    Yes and Ronald Koeman's team finished 6th which also beat Nicholl's 7th but he was an underrated Saints manager who had the misfortune of following the club's most successful manager ever.

    Yep good balanced post. I felt exactly the same at the end of last season and agree about Che.
    But we are only one game in and 2 weeks left of the transfer window. Yes, Saturday's performance was just like a continuation of last season but until the recruiting has finished we can't know what to expect. The unhappiness has carried over and has led to some early neurosis from some of our more unstable followers.
    Personally, I'm not overly optimistic but if we wait 2 weeks and nothing changes, we can then have a group panic attack.

    Sounds like Coady to Everton and Diop to Fulham. Would have loved to see either of those (or both) in our back four this season.

    Diop? No thanks. Coady? Yes but only in a three. Would've brought us invaluable leadership, at least.

    Yeah, Diop's worse than Bednarek.

    Do they actually need one? If they do my optimistic Saints mood might change sooner than later!

    West Ham also want to get rid of Benrahma apparently. Wonder if a PL team will go in for him. Seems like a Forest/Fulham signing.

    Exactly the point I made to a mate the other day. Makes no sense, however frustrating it may become, to make such a move beforehand.

    If we keep losing then the pressure from the fan base will likely force the board to act.

    If we lose the first 6 games he is gone. Fans won’t stand for it.

    Not saying we will lose all of them btw. Just saying it’s silly to say that he has a certain amount of time or number of games.

    Worry not, fellow Saints fans. Did I not tell you that the La Liga team most local to me is FC Elche?
    We’re working on a swap deal, which would see me stay over here and one Guido Marcelo Carrillo move the opposite way.
    You’re welcome. <laugh><laugh><laugh>

    Say what you like about Nicholl, but he managed to crow bar Rideout, Rod Wallace, Matt and Shearer in the team that destroyed then champions Liverpool. For that alone he has my respect. Remember what came and afterwards

    I’ve got an idea. Why don’t we sell our best striker to a relegation rival, and then play midfielders in every position?
