W88DY Posted 16 May 2022 Posted 16 May 2022 Is this not the bottom line here? Youri has a bad game most of the time because he`s over thinking about his next big money move away from us, which therefor drops Soyuncu in the shit at the back which then makes Soyuncu look like a poor player, He is not blessed with speed but can still do a good job in my opinion when his team mates are on the same page...

Playing alongside Fofana, he needs to be the one controlling and organising the back-line, alongside Amartey, he allowed Amartey to take the lead and he defers to Evans. I really believe he is a top notch defender, he needs to step up and take charge. He is just going to go elsewhere and become a number 2, and feel undervalued all over again. 1
Deeg67 Posted 17 May 2022 Posted 17 May 2022 (edited) We need someone who can step into the steady, reliable Evans role, and I don’t think Cags is that guy. I’d worry about replacing Evans this summer (with someone a few years younger, even if Evans sticks around) with Cags money, and Fofana next summer with Fofana money (which will be a lot more, if he stays healthy).

Supergray22 Posted 17 May 2022 Posted 17 May 2022 I’d have to say although he has not had his best season I’d still like him to stay. If we can get another centre back in as good as Cags or get an obscene amount of money for him I wouldn’t be selling him if we think he will sign a new contact on reasonable terms. I don’t think he has downed tools and we know on form he is capable of being one of the better defenders in the premier league. He gives us pace and aggression at the back which is rare. He is still relatively young, brings a bit of character to the team. We haven’t seen enough of him alongside Wes. His recent omission does make me think a deal has been done though. I’ll miss him if that is true. And singing that song. 1
Popular Post HighPeakFox Posted 17 May 2022 Popular Post Posted 17 May 2022 Sell him, purely so we lose that absurdly irrelevant unfunny song. 4 1
Vardinio'sCat Posted 17 May 2022 Posted 17 May 2022 At least he has stopped Real being priced out of a move for him, with a season like he has had.

Webbo Posted 18 May 2022 Posted 18 May 2022 If he wanted to stay, I'd be glad to keep him, however it looks like he wants to move on, so it's irrelevant. 2
gurru991 Posted 19 May 2022 Posted 19 May 2022 (edited) He is one of my favourite players & I'm disappointed that his form has dropped off this season. What worries me is that that our Defensive coaches have really underwhelmed in organizing our defence & not improving Cags as a player. Edited 19 May 2022 by gurru991 Grammar 1

Blanchflower78 Posted 19 May 2022 Posted 19 May 2022 (edited) Feels like the right time now for both parties. Another season could see him mentally down tools full stop. Been great for large part, wish him well but very replaceable. Edited 19 May 2022 by Blanchflower78 1

There’s only so much coaching can achieve, all you have to do is watch Cags and mentally he’s not at this level, he ball watches constantly whilst his man moves off him in the box, it’s like watching a kid play. Doesn’t get touch tight and drifts into sh!t areas. We absolutely need to cash in this summer, he’s fell off a cliff this season and is reverting back to the error prone kid who first broke through. No ill feelings towards the guy, but this summer is absolutely the right time for both parties to go their own ways!
HybridFox Posted 19 May 2022 Posted 19 May 2022 (edited) Hope he does come on for a few mins for a farewell appearance at the weekend but can't see it Edited 19 May 2022 by TK95 1

Great !! Who are you replacing him with? Do Southampton have a special on for defenders ?? We've done well shopping there before !! 1

You could replace him with a fart and it would make no difference to our points tally next year. im joking but if we can’t use a whole summer to replace a defender who has been completely useless for 18 months, then we have much bigger problems!

Popular Post NewquayFox Posted 20 May 2022 Popular Post Posted 20 May 2022 Sad to see how it’s ended up for Soyuncu, was the fans favourite and certainly got stuck into the opposition strikers, those Cruyff turns as well, he will be sold or traded in this summer and I wish him well… 9

A fart would have done better at winning that 50/50 he bottled against Spurs.
