A great 2013/2014 season and then your manager goes and is followed by the majority of your team.

I listened to an interview on Talk Sport this evening with the Southampton chairman and he handled various questions quite well and reassured fans that Schneiderlin and Rodriguez wouldn't be sold and they would be the backbone of Koeman's new-look Saints

Then within an hour Schneiderlin is apparently on social media saying his trust with the club has been destroyed and he wants out....little wonder Southampton have had their odds slashed for relegation.

I hope they dont freefall for the sake of Saints fans but I think they'll find it hard going!

    To be fair when you look at the prices theyve got for the players whove left

    Shaw £30 million for a player with no european and very little international experience, Early reports are that van gaul isnt a big fan

    Llanna £25 million for a player who looked well out of his depth at the world cup

    Lovren £20 million for a player they only payed £8 million for last year.

    And offers of

    Schniederlin £20 million sorry cant see tha at all

    rodrigez  £30 million for a player whos had 1 good season


    These players want to leave and as we all know no matter what the clubs say if a player wants to leave he will leave.

    This isnt anti Southampton this is just the way football is.

    so good luck my deckchair friends 

    Your gonna need it!

    Have got a week of work was thinking of taking the ST MARYS tour.
    Won't bother with the seating areas as I will be able to see most of them empty on the telly next season.
    The trophy area should be a thriller, although I might give it another 40 or 50 years for your "BIG" club to add to the one trophy youve managed in the previous 125 years of medeocrity.

    LOL!

    I bet there are a few thousand Southampton fans pinching themselves at the moment with how their season is going so far. An 8-0 win, amazing stuff, am really pleased for them.

    I never understood why all the so called "experts" feared for Southampton?

    They got rid of mediocre players and brought in far better players

    Pelle is far better than Lambert,  Tadic is far superior to Lallanna,  Forster is a far better GK than last seasons and holds the clean sheet record in the SPL

    PP offered a "specials" market on Southampton finishing above Liverpool @ 16/1 which I snapped up (only £20 allowed) easiest £320 ill ever make

    They feared mate cause they lost a lot of players. Luckily unlike Spurs/Liverpool they have bought very wisely. Not many people saw that coming from a club that seemed to be in disarray.

    My hat goes off to them and may they continue to score loads of points for my fantasy football team.

    Koemann very good manager as well
