This could be interesting the Nunez vs Haaland battle of the strikers

STill think Haaland will nick it - he is 21 and has already got 175 senior goals for club and country

Cough.
Timo Werner.

If all 38 of his games were against us the golden boot would be a given.

The last time a Southampton goalkeeper signed a contract with the club we had to wait 8 months for confirmation so I wouldn’t hold your breath just yet.

“The club are hoping to build a new team around key players James Ward-Prowse, Kyle Walker-Peters and Tino Livramento but there is much work to be done beyond that.”

Building a team around two right backs? Based on that I’m anticipating Gareth Southgate replacing Ralph imminently.

5 year deal.

I’m not doubting his ability but I certainly hope he has mental resilience if he’s going to play in a side like ours, with a defence like ours.

Our last 3 goalkeepers have all suffered from confidence falling off a cliff at some point.

Dave Watson is no longer at the club

I did think that but he’s been focused on setting us up to concede from set pieces and scoring none at the other end for a couple of years now.
