Guest Bilo Posted 9 August 2023 Posted 9 August 2023 2 minutes ago, AjcW said: So on the basis of us potentially giving them six points this season they will walk the league? They did the double on us last season… wasn’t exactly a big achievement Just think they’ll struggle against some of the more established championship sides who have been building their squads up over the last few years. We finished 9 points above them even while giving them a 6 point head start. Let's not beat about the bush; they were absolute shit last season and I struggle to see how and where they've improved.
AjcW Posted 9 August 2023 Posted 9 August 2023 Aarons is a funny one. Wasn’t he literally signing for Barcelona(might have been Milan?) a couple of years ago? Must have really knocked him when that fell through last minute.

AjcW Posted 9 August 2023 Posted 9 August 2023 Just now, foxfanazer said: Yeah he was definitely linked to Barca at one point. Huge fall from grace I remember him being at the airport on deadline day or something along this lines. Everyone thought Lewis who went to Newcastle was going to be a star as well

Bunch of kids, about to lose their leader, hired an absolute charlatan, goalkeeper is absolutely diabolical, only signings this year have been another youngster and a mate of the managers. They looked poor in Friday but scraped a win, and they got battered last night with 6 or 7 first teamers playing. They’ll struggle and have a new manager by January IMHO. Obviously might be completely wrong, but the amount of hype for them on here is just odd. just out of curiosity, which teams in this league do you think are stronger than southampton? personally i think if you finish above them, you’ve won the league. The player that you’re saying is ‘martins mate’ had the 3rd highest assists last season

Yes, we’re going to need reinforcements in attack but we’ve recruited a lot better than them so far.

martyn Posted 9 August 2023 Posted 9 August 2023 In more bad news for Leeds, Gnonto was not in their squad earlier with the suggestion being that he has thrown his toys out the pram.
OntarioFox Posted 9 August 2023 Posted 9 August 2023 Cov really found themselves 1-0 up again and decided 'nah mate, gotta focus on the league'
Guest Bilo Posted 10 August 2023 Posted 10 August 2023 Leeds having an absolute nightmare start to the season in terms of injuries and personnel.

It's natural that people will start looking to the competition but the love-in for them is slightly ridiculous. They haven't recruited brilliantly, will lose JWP and Lavia with limited time to replace them (look how quickly we sorted Maddison and Barnes by comparison,) and they didn't look convincing at Sheffield Wednesday after the first 30 minutes.

It was as inevitable that JWP and Lavia would leave Southampton as it was that Maddison and Barnes would leave us, but we got our deals done quickly with plenty of time to select, scout and sign replacements. Southampton will have much less time to do the same and we'll be ahead of them in crucial areas.

Simmo86 Posted 11 August 2023 Posted 11 August 2023 (edited) Been a great week for us with other sides losing key players. Lavia will probably go Chelsea now aswell. Edited 11 August 2023 by Simmo86

The difference a good manager makes. Had we made the wrong appointment, we could have lost Nacho, KDH, Ricardo and Justin as well as made weaker signings ourselves. We've actually had a better transfer window than some of the bottom Prem teams.
