Hull manager Liam Rosenior inside the away dressing room after Tuesday nights 2.1 defeat.
🗣️ I knew we were going to win because of our group mentality.
🗣️ Your appetite to run for each other. 🗣️ Your appetite to win duels.

🚨 Elyounoussi set to leave 🚨
Southamptons Mohamed Elyounoussi will be one of the first departures this summer at
#SaintsFC
He’s rejected a new contract and is now looking for a fresh start away from the South Coast.
Have to agree with Merson.
Ward Prowse may be as well off staying put at
#SaintsFC
🗣️ West Ham you’re not going to 1 of the top 6. He would be working on scraps.
Stay it’s a lovely season you’re winning every week everybody likes a winning team
I dropped down the league
Charles was superb but Adam Armstrong today was absolutely outstanding again. That last ditch tackle and he sets up both goals too. Man of the match display 🔥
What a result 😇
#SaintsFC
Regards to all the Shea Charles comments on this time line…
He is 20 years old playing his first season in professional football, why are so many writing him off already ? 🤯🤦🏻
#Saintsfc
✍️ Signed a three-and-a-half-year contract at Saints in January 2022
➡️ A loan to Burnley at the start of the 2022/23 season to kick start his career and and what a season it’s been.
⚽️ 17 goals so far, Nathan is expect to be voted the Championship Player of the season.
😇
🚨 Done Deal
✍️ Ryan Fraser is set to become Southampton's first summer signing.
😇 A fantastic addition, he was brilliant last season. No question he will be more than good enough for the Premier League.
#SaintsFC
Probably not true but saw this on SaintsWeb.
Apparently it’s £30m and we get Downes for £10m and Danny Ings on loan for a year with West Ham paying a large part of his wages.
If true unbelievable, can’t see it but unbelievable business it this is correct 🤷♂️
#SaintsFC
You have to question why these two didn’t start yesterdays must win game.
😇 Sulemana is our record signing he has pace & power he runs at defenders.
😇 Alcaraz is the only player who isn’t scared to shoot, he is a player who MUST be starting.
We need match winners
#SaintsFC
❤️🤍 What a club and what a fan base!
This is the greatest moment of supporting
@SouthamptonFC
since I was born!
I'm so proud of our club! Absolute scenes at the end—limbs and tears everywhere.
#SaintsFC
✍️ Signed for Southampton for 8.5 Million in January and became the second highest earner at the Football Club on 79,000 per week.
🥲 Where has it all gone wrong for Mislav Oršić who’s struggled to make the bench.
🤯 Meanwhile on the field the team creates no chances and
That second half was as good as we've played all season.
What we are achieving right now is nothing short of incredible.
Russell Martin you should be so proud because we have a team to once again be proud of!
You have reunited what was a broken fan base 👏🏻😇
#SaintsFC
There is plenty of life after James Ward Prowse!
I thought Will Smallbone stepped up massively on Saturday for us.
He is dynamic and classy on the ball.
Add Downes he will be an amazing addition in midfield.
#SaintsFC
James Ward-Prowse moved to West Ham to boost his England squad chances, but it hasn’t worked out. Hearing he’s also struggled to settle at the East London club.
Downes or JWP? I’d take Downes what about you
#SaintsFC
fans ?
Been really impressed with Russ Martin.
Finally a manager who can make good substitutes and change games.
Hope the owners back him with players he needs this week
#SaintsFc
Newcastle won’t pay £30Million for Tino Livramento. Clubs are miles apart.
Clubs are shocked at the valuations set by Southampton for James Ward-Prowse and Kyle Walker-Peter along others.

Nice to see we are not being bent over.

#SaintsFC
Not much of a color clash, except for the socks which could be swapped for black 🤷♂️
I’d much prefer seeing us in red instead of the black away shirt what about you
#SaintsFC
fans ?
Embarrassed to hear the fan during the minute’s silence shout to the Leicester City fans, very disrespectful comments about their owner who sadly passed away in a helicopter crash! What is wrong with people?
#SaintsFC
Russell Martin will take time to built what he wants here at Saints.
The Swansea fans I’ve been chatting with tell me we will need patience, he won’t stand for bad eggs and will remove trouble makers.
Just be ready to be patient.
He should be announced this week.
#SaintsFC
Sometimes we forget that Shea Charles is just 20 years old because he plays beyond his years.
His talent and composure on the ball are remarkable for his age his also super strong. Looking forward to seeing how he develops this season.
#SaintsFC
No question we come again and things will be good again.
Football does go in circles and we will re set and re build.
Southampton will be super attractive to any manager in the summer, we have good backing and will bounce back if it’s managed correctly.
#SaintsFC
I still don’t understand this transfer. We didn’t have a goal scorer so sign one who has a very good goal scoring record.
He may not be great but at least back the signing and play him and give him a chance.
Why buy him not play him ?
#saintsfc
Give him a chance to play and have a real go. Honestly, if he had come on with 30 minutes left, I think we would’ve gotten something. He’s just incredibly talented.
#SaintsFC
😇 Carlos Alcaraz is looking like a stunning signing for
#SaintsFC
✍️ Signed for €14m + add-ons in a 4 year deal and it looks to set be a bargain.
🌊 Since arriving on the South Coast in January he has been super and was absolutely immense first half on Friday
Thread 🧵 ⬇️
I now really think now is the time we stop selling the starting 11, Che, Tella KWP!
To sell any now would be absolute stupid to sell both of Tella and Adams would weaken us massively, It is not needed. We don’t need the money do we?
#SaintsFC
The rumour mill is well under way.
Reading today that several Championship clubs, including Leicester City, Ipswich, and Leeds, are eyeing a move for Ex Saint Danny Ings this January.
Would you welcome a Ings to return to
#SaintsFC
?
Ryan Fraser 🗣️ We have such a great set of lads, no one that shys away.
We have a darts tournament at the training ground. We all sit together at lunch no-one has lunch by themselves.
Those little key moments of being a team can’t be underestimated.
Thought KWP was absolutely superb last night.
Tella as we always said would be our golden ticket and we must keep him at ALL costs!
Massive shoutout to our new manager. He brought togetherness and a style of play which has been so needed!
#SaintsFC
Ramsdale on signing for Southampton
🗣️Largely down to the manager, the way he wants to play, the way he was when I spoke to him, this morning last night, he has so much enthusiasm. He made me feel 8ft tall which is just what you want
#SaintsFC
The more I think of it, the more hilariously bad management this is with tall Paul Onuachu.
You have supposedly the best dead ball player in the league, and the tallest centre forward in the league, and no other other strikers scoring and we aren’t selecting him 🤔
#saintsfc
I still don’t understand this transfer. We didn’t have a goal scorer so sign one who has a very good goal scoring record.
He may not be great but at least back the signing and play him and give him a chance.
Why buy him not play him ?
#saintsfc
Discussions were left at stalemate between Swansea and Southampton for compensation for Russell Martin.
Swansea want £800.000 for Martin and his staff and this is the sticking point.
@swansea_indy
#SaintsFC
🗣️ "He's an absolute hero on the south coast"
@footballmartin_
discusses how Russell Martin has rebuilt Southampton as a football club following their Championship play-off final victory ⬇️
If Martin can keep these two next season what a chance we would have.
Adam’s bagged 22 goals in his last season in the Championship
Armstrong with 28 goals at Blackburn
Just need the manager to build Adam Armstrong’s confidence and get him scoring again!
#SaintsFC
#EFL
Exciting news this! The Club a revamping the St Mary's site, expanding the stadium footprint behind the Northam and Chapel stands.
Get ready for fan parks, outdoor entertainment, and more food & drink options for an enhanced matchday experience! 🏟️
#StMarysRevamp
#SaintsFC
Good news we are working are working on the introduction of Wi-FI at St Mary’s.
From an hour before KO till well away from the ground afterwards I’m unable to receive or make calls or use the internet not ideal.
#SaintsFC
Burnley will push to sign Nathan Tella.
Initial talks have already been had and are anticipated to ramp up now.
Saints are in a strong position with Tella he is contracted till 2025.
Burnley will need to pay around £15m-£20m
#twitterclarets
#Saintsfc
Will we see the introduction of safe standing at St Mary’s for the 2023/24 season?
Not only does the club need a reset so does the Stadium, we must find ways to create a far better atmosphere.
What are your thoughts on St Mary’s
#saintsFC
fans?
With just 1 FreeKick to equal David Beckham’s PL record.
Sunday will be his last chance in a
#SaintsFC
shirt.
A slim chance he will do this at St Mary’s.
Ward Prowse has not scored a direct FreeKick in front of fans at St Mary’s since 2019 Vs Watford.
Take away from last night, the
#Swansea
fans were right.
Some good goals scored, but we were suicidal in and around the back with stupid mistakes
Will need far better players at the back to play this way.
Going to need a minimum of 2-3 goals a game to get results
#SaintsFC
If rumours are true this will be our new home kit for 2023/24.
Great work again by
@TheDSBMedia
who has put this together on all the leaks.

Giving my thoughts on
@WeAreTheOverlap
ahead of Southampton’s return to the Premier League.
I emphasised the need for signing a goalkeeper.
I also believe Russell Martin will adjust his tactics.

Fraser Forster 🗣️“We had an incredible team in that period, Koeman was fantastic with us the football we played and where we finished in the league was something really special for Southampton

Podcast
#SaintsFC
Who else is hoping for a total freshen up of the pre match music and build up for games at St Mary’s ?
All this “don’t stop till we’re legend “ All needs a revamp with these new screens
#SaintsFC
That was tough to take. We played well, but the Premier League is unforgiving. We've been saying all summer that Martin needs a keeper who fits his style. There's promise, but we still need a solid keeper and a solid number 9.
Shoutout to this man who was outstanding 👇
#SaintFC
How good was Joe Aribo when he can on Saturday?
I’ve been fast to criticise him but it’s important to highlight how good he was Saturday.

Southampton have opened reportedly open talks with Newcastle over the permanent signing of Ryan Fraser.
What a season he had with Saints, scored 8 goals with 3 assists in 44 games.
Fraser has 12 months remaining on his Newcastle contract.
#SaintsFC
#NUFC
Absolutely thrilled with my debut on the award winning and best football show in the game!
What an incredible experience.
Don’t miss it tune in on YouTube this Thursday
@WeAreTheOverlap
@Carra23
and Paul Scholes were absolutely brilliant 👏🏻
4️⃣ Southampton players who have something about them who need to be in and around this team today.
😇 Alcaraz, Onuachu, Kamaldeen and to have the option of Edozie from the bench surely has to start happening now, games are must win. Time to be fearless Saints

I always get excited but the new KIT announcements. Growing up working in a sports shop gave me my love for football shirts.
I think this would be brilliant.
Can you go and work for Hummel 😇

Definitely feel Jacks going to be massive for us this season!
Perfect Captain if James Ward-Prowse does leave.

He's a talented player who needs game time now, and there's no better manager to guide him than Danny Röhl at Sheffield Wednesday. This could be his breakthrough moment.
#SaintsFC
#SWFC
🥲 I was told this before the season ended.
I’m sure a player coming the other way also.
Would expect a deal of around £15million plus add-ons
Tino is one of the lowest earners at Southampton on around £7k per week
#SaintsFC
Best wishes to Ex Saint

who was back in training with his Chelsea teammates today after recovering from his ACL injury.
A loan who we all loved down here on the South Coast.

😇 I’m excited at the appointment of Russell Martin.
✅ The club have moved fast giving our man time over the summer.
Reunite the fan base and club bring everyone together and back the new man 🤜
#SaintsFC
It’s been coming but best wishes JWP 😇
Most importantly we must invest well a new Striker is a MUST, hoping to see Grimes come in top end Championship CM

Dragan Šolak Speaking with
@talkSPORT
I did a lot of research and everything I learned about Saints was so special.
Saints are family club, It's beautiful and I share their passion.
#saintsfc
😇 Really impressed with Russel Martins first interview.
This man is so much more a better fit for Southampton Football Club than Nathan Jones was.
❤️ Love his vision and how he wants things to develop in the coming weeks and months.
#SaintsFC
#EFL
For me it's absolutely crucial to retain Che Adams, for the sake of £6 million, it's a no-brainer now!
Let's keep him and build on his outstanding performance in the first 45 minutes yesterday!
The best I have seen him in a Southampton shirt.
Well played Che 😇
#SaintsFC
As a football ⚽️ fan you can’t beat that feeling of walking up those steps, seeing & smelling the fresh grass and stadium. It still gives me goosebumps 34 years on from my first game at The Dell 🔴⚪️

Throwback to our promotion back to the
@premierleague
on Saturday April 28 2012 at St Mary’s.
We had been outside the top flight for 7 years which at the time felt like a lifetime.
What a job Nigel Adkins did with what was a fantastic group of players. So much hard work to get
What a game.
God we are fragile at the back, needs addressing asap.
Great going forward.
Sam Amo Ameyaw when he came on was special again!
Will Smallbone was my MOM he was outstanding I just hope he injury isn’t too bad.
