Leicesterpool Posted 14 February 2023 Share Posted 14 February 2023 Southampton fans must be having living in a nightmare. Bottom of the league, playing trash football, with no manager being linked with Chris Wilder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicesterpool Posted 14 February 2023 Share Posted 14 February 2023 (edited) Things ain't been great since they sacked Puel, as average as he was here. He did achieve a top 10 finish and a league cup final. Ralph was okay to a point, but two suffer to 9 nil thrashing in your reign isn't healthy.

They shouldn't have sacked Hassenhuttl of course. 2 minutes ago, FoyleFox said: Quite annoying from an outsiders perspective too.

This is what happens when you circle the drain for years and years though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aus Fox Posted 14 February 2023 Author Share Posted 14 February 2023 I’m really not sure who would take on the Southampton or Leeds job right now. Can’t imagine anyone already in, and doing a decent job anywhere would jump at the chance to potentially move from top end of a league to a relegation fight with poor teams. I can actually see Lampard and Gerrard being offered the roles at some point. Part of me would love Lampard to go to Leeds and for us to send them down with 5 games still to go. An away end singing stop crying Frank Lampard would be magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fox_up_north Posted 14 February 2023 Share Posted 14 February 2023 You could genuinely make a case for about 5/6 teams to drop this season and I think we've just got ourselves out of that conversation. Everton, Leeds, Southampton, West Ham, Bournemouth, maybe Wolves. Forest could go either way but there's a gap opening up now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everton, Leeds, Southampton, West Ham, Bournemouth, maybe Wolves. Forest could go either way but there's a gap opening up now. What makes this year interesting is there's enough quality in Leeds, West Ham, Wolves and probably even Everton's squads to put a run of games together and catch Leicester, Forest and Palace. It's not like previous years where you've got trash like Norwich down there that are objectively not good enough for this level. If our confidence goes again and the "bounce" we've got from the new signings dissolves then we could quickly get back in trouble, same for Forest. Almost all the clubs below us are there because they've been equally poorly mismanaged rather than because their squads are completely terrible. Again, Everton maybe the exception there but their best 11 still isn't utterly awful I just think we're still seeing the hangover from how badly Lampard fvcked the morale there.

StanSP Posted 14 February 2023 Share Posted 14 February 2023 (edited) I thought the Marsch to Southampton rumours were a joke, but they're actually going for him?! Bizarre when you see he didn't take Leeds anywhere. Joined when they were 17th. Leaves them in the same position. I can only imagine they actually are preparing for Championship life as I think he'll do fine there. But they've spent a shit load in Jan. Some players that are too good for the Championship too.

Surely its still a joke right? This makes zero sense. I hope Southampton enforce a zero Jeans and sneakers touchline policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

21st Century Fox Posted 14 February 2023 Share Posted 14 February 2023 I still can't fathom how the Southampton Board can hire and fire a manger so clearly out of his depth and then think the next best thing is Jesse Marsch!!! Are they just looking at his Red Bull credentials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunbury Fox Posted 14 February 2023 Share Posted 14 February 2023 I guess Southampton think that Marsch (just) kept Leeds up last season after they looked doomed under Bielsa. Plus, he's a Red Bull graduate like Ralph so the players will be used to the kind of high pressing style he deploys. So maybe not totally bonkers?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeds' performance weren't so bad under Marsch but they didn't get results. Their main issues were weak defence and striker. And those are the same issues that Southampton have as well. Their midfield of Lavia, Alcaraz and Ward-Prowse looks very strong but their defence looks very poor, and may take time for their new attacking options to settle. Also, it's a very young team and lack experience in high pressure situations. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
