Southampton FC 2024-25: Thank you, Sir. May I have another?

[yoladu 4168]

we'll see how it goes.. moves so far.

• Taylor Harwood-Bellis - triggered a £20million permanent transfer for Manchester City
• Adam Lallana from Brighton. Looking to capture that 2013 spirit . i suppose.
• Ryan Fraser rumors are signing is near done - from Newcastle

Lallana and Fraser are washed. I know you need EPL caliber players but neither of those guys are it. 
 

good luck to y'all next season, impressive to bounce back so quickly.

Five potential signings for Southampton this summer

• Aaron Ramsdale (Arsenal) - HELL YES!

• Matt O'Riley (Celtic) - YES!!

• Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (Beşiktaş) - Nope

• Jesurun Rak-Sakyi (Crystal Palace) - Sure, why not?

• Armando Broja (Chelsea) - Naw

[yoladu 4168]

Cameron Archer to Saints from Villa.

Never heard of him. We need a striker. He is a striker.

 

 

[yoladu 4168]

this guy any good, Chelsea supporters?

 

[yoladu 4168]

off to a bad start

Newcastle 1 - 0 Southampton

1) Saints - 77.8% possession and lost. Russball for ya.

2) Newcastle - 1 shot on target / 3 shot attempts.

3) Southampton - 4 shots on target / 19 shot attempts

4) Gifted Newcastle a goal when they were playing with 10 men - dumb GK error. GK has been a glaring hole for us all summer and we have done nothing about it.

All that possession, limited your opponent to 3 shots, your opponent down to 10 men at the 28' mark..

0 points.

[yoladu 4168]

still no GK in.. but we got this guy. not sure who he is..

 

[yoladu 4168]

off to a bad start

Southampton 0 - 1 Nottingham Forest

We had the ball A LOT. We did literally nothing with it. One defensive mistake.

• 65% possession, 1 shot on target
• Aribo dispossessed right outside the box, Forest capitalizes.

sensing a pattern?

Southampton's vaunted U strategy. Lots of possession, no threat to score.

for fuck's sake.

GK Justin Bijlow says Southampton transfer broke down as they ‘have a different view on how to treat on old injury’

ok, back to Ramsdale now? Looks like Wolves can't afford him.

 

Aaron Ramsdale handed transfer blow as Premier League club priced out of move for outcast Arsenal goalkeeper but Ajax and Southampton remain interested
