sorry but i've got to say this but adkins should be sacked sorry but too many key games this season have gone wasted. his tactics are good at average teams but the big teams were just no where as good. and i think adkins has done a really good job but with the money we have spent and the way we have played this season but please resign. rant over lol

Not being funny but I think he could be right, when Southampton appointed Nigel Adkins I was completely shocked as in my eyes he hasn't done enough for me to have a shot at such a big club like Southampton and he'd only come from little old Scunthorpe (no offence), secondly looking at the squad Pardew built the basis did he not before he was dimissed? such as signing Lambert,Fonte,Barnard, Harding, Dickson, Butterfield, Richardson,Hammond, plus Antonio & Waigo the previous season.
^
And really the squad above was the main team when we were in L1, however this season I suppose his credit is due he's pulled off some good signings and we're pushing for promotion but is Adkins Premiership material if promoted?/ Plus not being funny but where would we have been if Pardew had not signed Lambert those years ago?

^Gloryseeker, not being funny. He's only improved our league position by over 40 places so yeah sack him......prat.

millions on a good cb
fonte aint premiership

I said it a couple of weeks ago !!when,
saints defence is crap ... when?
stop being a f***ing baby ...
u lost , get over it .... go to bed ..
awake in the ,morning .. breath and move on .. i like the saints .

maximus

Agree0 Disagree0

Pompey fan ...

Agree0 Disagree0

Look at saints last four results
goals for 5
goals against 8
fact
not promotion form

defence not good enough

as i said before will need to
spend millions if they go up
do nt hold you re
breathe yet 3 matches
to go

Agree0 Disagree0

Promotion is decided over 46 games + the play offs not 4. So a team promoted to the Prem has to improve its squad. Well i never.

Agree0 Disagree0

And if saints play the
next three games
like the last 4 they
aint going anywhere
one man team

Leicester to lose mills, beckford and king to Leeds in the summer seen as Leeds have more ambition and support

Believable0 Unbelievable6

More ambition and support you taking the paula radcliffe extrement? for a start your carp and you wont be able too afford any of em as bates it a tight backside! Go and post yor sh**e some where else you dreamer!

LeicesterLad

Agree0 Disagree0

Yes were gona lose all three to Leeds who are 100% staying in the championship. How do leicester have no ambition when the owners goal is the premiership and thats why most of our newer players joined, to join our objective, this season or the next but just so you are aware the play offs isnt too far and we can still get to the premiership this season. . . Not saying we will but its looking alot more likely than Leeds.

Nice 3 points to finish the season off? I think so thanks.

Matty gilks the goalkeeper has had exellent reviews from almost every teams manager we have played this year...lol theres one... should i go on....??

maximus {Ed001's Note - mind, he does get more diving practice than Tom Daley playing behind your defence Maxi!}

Agree0 Disagree0

Tom ince blackpools best player this year..
whittingham was brilliant last year for cardiiff ,not up to same standard this year..i`ll give you my taem of year when season finishes ..oh and if blackpool do manage to go up ,it will be only our squad in it..lol..

maximus ps stop playing games ed001!!!! {Ed001's Note - does that mean you couldn't guess the answer? No medal for you then Maximus!}

Agree0 Disagree0

Federicis top on the actim stats for goalkeepers, gilks isnt even in top 5

Agree0 Disagree0

Llana is a good player but constantlythrows himself to the ground looking for free kicks and penalties, for that reason he would be an embarrasment in a 'team of the year'.

Agree0 Disagree0

Utter tosh go take a hop,skip and jump,i'd defo putt Baptiste in like a shot.

Mr.Roller Coaster

Olssen (LB, Swedish International)
Hanley (CB, Young)

Hoilett (LM/ST/CAM, Out of contract, likely to move to a big club)
Yakubu (ST, Top scorer)

Bolton:
Ream (CB, Signed as a replacement for Cahill)
Eagles (LM, Signed from Burnley)
Holden (CM, American International)
M Davis (CM, Player of the season for Bolton so for in my eyes)
Reo-coker (CM, Talented signed on a free)

QPR:
Kenny (GK, Been there for a couple of years)
Hill (CB, Scored against Bolton but somehow the Lino didn't see it)
Faurlin (CM, Controversial move)

Helgusen (ST, Beast in the air, top scorer)

Wigan:
Al Habsi (GK, INSANE)

Diame (CM, Cracker against Chelsea, but my favourite Wigan player)
Gomez (CM, Set piece specialist)

Wolves:
Hennessey (GK, Performed well this season)
Ward (Any, Can play in Defence, Midfield, Attack, very good utility player)
O'Hara (CM, Goalscoring midfielder)
Jarvis (LM, Arguably their best player)
Fletcher (ST, Can get double figures in a team that has struggled this season)
Doyle (ST, Needs a bit of confidence to go on and get goals)

These are the players I would like to Join Southampton, not necessarily will!!

Chesterfield are planning an ambitious move for Leicester loanee Franck Moussa either on a permanent 150,000 deal or a season long loan. However this is likely to be rejected as Franck sees himself as a league 1 player at least.
