They come. They go. The beat goes on.
I don’t consider Soton a bigger club than us. They haven’t won anything of note since the ‘70s. And have not won anything more than us … they have the FA Cup, we have the League Cup. We have been to the last 32 of the Europa League. They haven’t.I'm not too worried about it, we can find another manager who will have his own players to bring in. Southampton may be a bigger club but they will have to sort wages and players leaving. No doubt Martin will try to sign players from Swansea. Maybe he can take Fisher with him.
Who would he be interested in at our club? It very much depends on who leaves Soton but Piroe, Grimes and Woods would be my guess atm.Martin is highly likely to repeat his pattern of raiding prior club for pets.
Fisher, Darling and Lati?Who would he be interested in at our club? It very much depends on who leaves Soton but Piroe, Grimes and Woods would be my guess atm.
Too much to hope for!Fisher, Darling and Lati?
That is also too much to hope for. Rodgers will want, and get, a tier one club, either at home or abroad. He won't step back to the Championship, especially to a club where the purse strings are as tight as ours. We'll go for the cheapest viable option which, as you all know, I believe should be young Tosh with KOL as his assistant. I reckon those two will put a rocket up the arses of our squad whilst ensuring the suicidal defending of the past becomes a very distant memory.Rogers is currently without a club. I’d be happy to see him back. He’s seasoned and then some at this point. He could get us promoted.
three more conflicting statements I couldn’t imagine writing. Either they have made an official approach or they haven’t and if not where’s the “confidence” coming from. I suppose they’ve talked to his agent, floated a term sheet, and it’s been enough to scuttle the meeting with our owners, while Soton and the Club hammer out the compensation details.Swansea City head coach Russell Martin is close to being named Southampton manager.
Southampton are yet to make an official approach to Swansea for permission to speak to Martin.
Saints are confident the 37-year-old will be their new boss as they rebuild following Premier League relegation.
I read in the newspapers that Soton were interested in Cabango before the approach to Martin, so he might go.Martin is pets oriented. Manning and Lati are free agents. Fisher and Darling are pets that I would be happy to cash-in on.
Woods and Piroe we need to keep. Fulton and Grimes are too old for Soton.
