How is anyone surprized by the attitude of players… They are the same at every club. No player gives a shit about anything apart from money and medals… if they aint good enough they stay and milk it… if they are they leave or push for a move… our mistake was simple. We have been too good at recruiting good players that we have too high an attrition rate… victim of a model that was innovative yet flawed… because we could not deliver on the the progress… this model needs a Cortese and a Pochetino… Most will think hate thatas they think Cortese was a cunt… but in football, name me anyone sucessfull - and i mean really sucessful who aint?
if we dont want cunts at the club, then we cant expect any success… only average missery.
Cortese is no longer here, I am, the issue isn’t Cortese per se its simply not replacing the players to the required standard ie gambling on a moneyball ideal.
As a sidenote where is the money?
Sell off, admin I think within 3 years if we don’t go straight back up.
They are getting pelters on the radio, disgrace, no intention and gutless.
Without watching I know this isn’t fake news.
I got hammered for wanting battlers in October, this is a result of hiring players who couldn’t give a fuck, boardroom looking at dividends and fans not having a bit more direct action.
Ah well at least the #wemarchon will go and we’ll fall back on the family club title as we have a shite atmosphere…
Its not the person you stupid twat - its the attitude. Cortese was about winning and progress - based on the money ear marked by Marcus… and because he was a bit of a cunt fans hated him… well they got what they wished for - as they always do… which is funny as fuck because they are the ones who have fuck all else in thier lives to make them happy outside football… why I go on about more important things …
Im surprised the radio is say the players wernt trying, I didnt see that at all. In fact if they didnt try so hard we would have certainly got beat. The players just were/ are adverage. The passing was shit. lost count how many times we gave the ball away
Gallagher out on loan and we buy a £19 million bike stand, the club is truly run by people who know fuck all about football. Its ok though football lovers the academy has got an extension…
If you think we could have got into the Champions League with Cortese you’re a spanner of the highest order, football is a fix and we have no chance of ever consistently breaking into it, we get picked off, the only way is a billionaire, hold up we’ve had them and they’re all the same for a club our size, I accept this but I don’t accept the optimistic bollocks, we’re Southampton and this is what we’ve always done, sell our best players and wing it.
Jeez, are you really that niave? It was about aspiration and attitude. Not fucking reality. Success comes from belief and aspiration. Who gives a fuck about the reailty, its te desire and inspiration that is positive and means players are believers… Spurs wont win the title beause they will never pay enough wages for the players you need to do it… but they have aspiration based on desire… that is what Levi and Poch are about… we had that attitude with NC…
