Good thing with Ballard is he already has experience of playing alongside an Ehibhatiomhan this season for Southampton U21s so he'll feel right at home

Watching these guys improve every game, does make you wonder how much of a better position we'd be in this season if Kelvin, Abbey, Camara etc had been training with the first team all last season and been given some of Dann, Long, Hoillets minutes. Doubt there would have been a drop off in performa...

Owner: Zero football knowledge, multiple terrible managerial appointments and the club has seen nothing but gradual decline since he took over. Head of football: Zero experience in a similar role and in his short time has overseen a relegation in the clubs academy status, relegation for the men's fi...

Dann and sarr rubbish.

Mcintyre surprisingly still nowhere near being a championship midfielder.

Long and Carroll spent more time on the floor than on the ball.

Woeful

ffs gourlay

5 centre backs and baba rahman, glad I didn't bother with this one

I kind of think they've forced themselves to have to postpone the other fixtures now, otherwise they're forcing 4 teams to have a slightly more congested fixture list while allowing the others to continue as normal. Agree on this, but yet again it's rather double standards. How were Arse and Manure...

Stoke look like us from last season, clearly lots of individual quality but no cohesion going forward and pretty soft at the back.

Also good to now find out that Fornah is absolutely rapid over 30-40 metres. He could end up being some player

paultheroyal Whist we are at it - wouldn't mind Nathan Redmond - he has fallen off the radar at Southampton. Quality player. One of the few players i have on my list who single handily destroyed us in a match - only 28.

Who else is on the list?

Maybe we've finally landed Tommy Smith

On another day we'd be 3 down already.

With Hutchinson's injury record, I wonder if it's worth resting him for this one, could move Mcintyre central and bring in NGW or Hoilett without losing too much defensively.

Tom Ince Motm again for me, good ball in for the goal (having put in 2 absolute shockers just beforehand), nice touch to set up Hendrick and constant pressing. Can see why Mcintyre was picked but was probably the weaker link in the team, some sloppy rushed clearances and think he gave it away leadin...

People always say oh Joao doesnt run around and press like Shane Long, because he's not 5 ft 9, thats why. He's 6ft 2, hes heavy.

Aside from the goalkeeping, defending, shape and passing we haven't been all that bad

Google suggests Jambang was most recently at Norwich and Akande was at Swansea.

Cardiff may well have 9 new signings in their starting 11 tomorrow so perfect time to play them. Comfortable win I think

So on the back of 4 games without a goal Ince has said he wants Sarr to sign so Mcintyre can play LB or midfield. Lovely.

We are just waiting to announce him alongside our new 'Senegal Green' away kit

Lol, well considering I'm pretty sure the whole bench had previously played for the first team, maybe their careers have already been ruined by nasty Paunovic
