Harry Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 27 minutes ago, Davefevs said: Leeds loanees returning this summer! Saints thoroughly deserved the win today. Right…on with the window! I think the transfer business by both Leeds and Southampton this season was quite interesting. Leeds sold about £30m of players and brought in about £30m of players. Southampton sold about £160m of players and only brought in about £20m of players. Although Saints relied more on loans (Bellis, Downes, Brooks, Fraser, Rothwell). Leicester spent £40m and sold £100m I know it’s easy to say that the relegated teams should go back up, but Southampton definitely had the tougher task of the 3 of them, with the players they lost and the amount spent on incomings.

Denbury Red Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Southampton did today what every team who beat them managed to do - quieten both Gnonto and Summerville - and without those two firing Leeds looked bang average. I expect both of them may want to leave in the summer - so Leeds will pose less of a threat to everyone next season 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it’s swings and roundabouts. Ultimately, all three should’ve got promoted. Superior squads after their ins and outs, and fair play to Ipswich for upsetting the trio, getting an auto place too, For info Harwood-Bellis is now a Saints player….£20m promo obligation (not option). 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Balls Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 So what are the odds on Russell Martin being Bayern Munich’s manager for the 2025-26, after he emulates Vincent Kompany on not changing his promoted team’s playing style at all to cope with being in the Premier League, the team getting beaten regularly and then relegated again? Unfortunately for Martin, unlike Burnley, Southampton won’t wait all season to see what’s going down, I.e. their team. Remember last time they were promoted they dumped Nigel Adkins after just a couple of months in the Premier League despite back-to-back promotions, so as to bring in Pochettino. Wonder what he’s up to these days?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder what he’s up to these days?! It's a kind of weird thing for him to say as, to my eyes, he already has changed style, at least in that game. It appeared to me as though Southampton were playing much more on the transition and were content to let Leeds have the majority of the possession. Or did my eyes deceive me? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it’s a case of a bit of respect for ability of opponent, so, yes, get into structure and stop Leeds, especially from 1-0 up. I think what I’ve seen with Martin, in reference to his arrogance, is that he can’t seem to accept his tram’s superior ability can ever not win against alleged inferior opponents.

Gillies Downs Leeds Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 I know he is not everyone's cup of tea but Warnock is great to listen to. The bit about praising John Brooks for his refereeing performance yesterday was comedy gold. If you didn't see it he said I have been waiting 15 years to praise John Brooks performance, which today was class.

I’ve bumped this because I have a really positive feeling about next season that’s a stronger one than it has been for many seasons. At the start of every season I’m caustically optimistic about our potential but more often than not it’s usually something of a let down - mid table obscurity again……….….. To me it just feels very different this time around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
