Ings hasnāt done anything to deserve a call up yet.
Still no Bertie, which is disappointing.
Unfortunately I feel he wonāt be getting another call up after this:

Squires as brilliant as ever there. And heās right, though Iāll confess I hadnāt spotted it - Ralph Hasenhuttl is a dead ringer for David Morrissey.

Yes he is, i hadnāt spotted it either. Some great comments if you scroll down. āHughes with his free beer, still not happyā is my favourite.

Not a tweet but our very own GWC has finally woken from his stupor to update his blog at long last.
I think he nails it.
But could pull him up on the Vestergaard comment

I get more impressed every time he speaks. Thatās a man that knows exactly whatās needed(or not) and very much a Southampton man.
āThe team have shown that they have more potential in them than people thought,ā
āItās a package. If you find a young player who has potential and quality then weāll think about a transfer.ā
Itās nice to be back in business again

We all know this guy is the real dealā¦sorry Iāll correct that; most* of us know this guy is the real deal and his approach to signings is calm and well considered. Whether that will provide more hits than missesā¦I like to think it will.
*Just the one usual dissenting voice of course.

Yeah, everything about him seems to fit. I particularly liked the fine system. Your time rather than your money. Thatās how you fine rich players.
So nice to hear a positive outlook again

I was listening to the Total Saints Podcast the other day and Adam Leitch of the Echo described him as along the lines of having a superstar / Hollywood aura and presence. Something that was lacking since Koeman left.
As you say, the real deal. Clear and actionable strategies based upon achievable aims (getting players fitter and more purposeful in their running, playing the ball forward immediately etc)
In Ralph we trust

Itāll be like having a new signing all over again, maybe

Good to see that. A real prospect and a full international to boot.
Typical Saintsā¦getting a star prospect on the cheap.
