Chris Powell was at Stevenage v Southampton
Comments
-
Powell signed Wilson because he is versatile and he realised rb was a position that we couldn't cover within the existing squad last season and it cost us points.0
-
Shouldnt Powell have been at Forest?0
-
Wouldve thought it was more a member of staffs job to scout that match

Read last night that Ramirez is a done deal for £11m and they're paying him £45k a week! If that is true can someone tell me how the hell Southampton can afford those sort of wages...or for that matter anything over 30k. I'm convinced that if I went away and came back in ten years the majority of clubs in the Premier League will have gone bankrupt especially those of Southampton's size.Splodge said:Of course, with someone like Puncheon a lot depends on what Southampton are doing. They are looking to sign 3-4 players, including wingers having been looking at Gaston Ramirez. Against Wigan, their 4-4-2 had Guly, Davis, Schneiderlin and Lallana in midfield with Rodriguez and Lambert up front, so if he's not in their current XI and they buy someone else, that might open up the chances of Puncheon leaving. I'd love a season long loan if we can't afford his fee/wages. Similar situation for Chaplow and Hammond, and Sharp. They signed another striker yesterday so Sharp may be 4th choice now.

What you have to remember is the premier league show a lot of games abroad that we don't get, which is why you can get all the foreign tv streams of saturday 3pm games. The TV revenue and the price you can charge for advert boards because of this are enormous. Combine that with all the glory hunter fans that suddenly start turning up and buying tickets and merchandise, and you can quickly see where they get the money from.0

Just hope for their sake then that they don't get relegated.sam3110 said:What you have to remember is the premier league show a lot of games abroad that we don't get, which is why you can get all the foreign tv streams of saturday 3pm games.

Freeman possibly? More of a playmaker, if Stephens goes. Would prefer Quinn or Wordsworth though. If a RB is being sought, then I hope it's not Richardson. Thought he was pretty poor and couldn't pass to save his life0

Freeman is a winger I think?0

Freeman would be a good signing.0 -

Everytime I see freeman I get the impression he would really frustrate. But then again, most proper wingers do frustrate0

Disagree about Richardson. I thought he was a class act and was very disappointed when he left. Proven Championship quality with a side promoted to the Prem. Would see him as a good replacement if we do sadly have to say farewell to Solly.Melrose said:Freeman possibly? More of a playmaker, if Stephens goes. Would prefer Quinn or Wordsworth though.

maybe he was bored and got a craving for some serious capital one cup action.0

Richardson left the same day that Gary Doherty and Mccormack was signed for us. Remember thinking at least were replacing quality with quality.
History proved that I couldn't of been further away from the actual truth0 -
Richardson was great for us.
After having Moutakrap, Danny "annual leave at xmas" Mills, Halford (thought he was half decent), Murty and Butterfield at right back in the years after the Premiership, he was very consistent and knew when to get forward.0 -
Game of differing oppinions I suppose. Not in the same league as Bob Curtiss, Humphrey, Young (who i wasn't all that keen on!), and certainly not Solly. Am I alone in remembering that he would constantly give the ball away with his passing?I-SAW-POUSO-PLAY said:Richardson was great for us.

It's only 3 years ago that Southampton were in administration and facing closure, if they didn't get a buyer.kentaddick said:

Wouldn't mind Richardson as a replacement for Solly
Would rather Solly stayed but that would soften the blow .. especially is he costs about a quarter of what we might get for Solly.0 -
Of course i agree.Melrose said:

For a league one right back he was decent and has now been promoted 2 seasons in a row.
He wasnt obviously the most talented player i have seen but he done a great job.0 -

I thought Frazer Richardson was a great player. Very reliable and great getting forward, a lot of pace.0
-
Pouso, You're not wrong there, he never let us down. Gonna be an interesting couple of days now. Would prefer us to keep Solly and Stephens, but if the offers are too good to turn down and it allows us to strengthen further, then I trust Powell to get the right quality in0

I really liked Richardson, thought it was a real shame when we had to sell him. Obviously Solly is a far better player, but Richardson was certainly a very good player and is definitely a good Championship right back.0

important to remember that Richardson is now 30.0
