    He is way too good for them.

    However, I'm not at all surprised that it's taken Wolves just two games to jump from 20th to 17th. I did always feel like their horrendous opening fixture list had left them in a totally false position. They could well continue to climb up the table now.

    Looks like we gave Wolves just the boost they needed.

    Saints and empowering our direct rivals, what a timeless combination.

    Just getting off the bottom is looking like a big challenge.

    Any hope we had of surviving disappeared with the Wolves defeat. I just hope that we don't go and waste another £40m in January, and then find ourselves handicapped come summer 2026. Keep the money for when it can be better spent.

    Trip to Fulham not looking quite so daunting now at least.

    If Ipswich win tomorrow and we lose then we’re 8 points adrift from them. That is a big ask to come back from. On the other hand????

    I’m amazed at how much Pep Guardiola has learned from RM.

    What an absolute ****e set of results for us. I'd be worried about relegation if we didn't have a pragmatic and tactically astute manager.

    Manchester City 1-0 Southampton

    Pep: "I will learn a lot from Russell Martin"

    City lose next five games in a row.

    Just watching MOTD, Cunha is a class act, he won’t be there next season.

    Ahhh, maybe that was RM’s goal all along. Get Pep gushing about us, falling into a lost sense of security, loses his job & who better to take over!?

    but the rosy’s will say, “we’re only 5pts from 17th AND we’ve got a game in hand”.
