Alfie, respectfully, slow down the velocity with which you speak. Please. It's beginning to become annoying, because I don't want to miss out on anything said on TSP. A lot of us subscribers don't have English as mother language, and I'm far from the only one who struggle to understand ev.thing you say. I understand EVERY word, every sentence from Glenn, Steve and Martin. WIth you, unfortunately , I miss out on more than half of your words because you speak so fast. I know for a fact that this is not the first time you are asked to slow down. I also know you are a great guy who doesn't speak too fast on purpose. So - adjust, please . <3

Good point from Glenn mentioning important players from a promotion season being surplus to requirements the season after - in the prem. I felt bad for especially Dean Hammond, our captain, back in autumn 2012. Later on Kelvin Davis..

"Now they've got Ed Sheeran involved they've gone all big time" 🤣 He's been "involved" for 3 years and now you pipe up! By the way if you think you don't have to fear Omari Hutchinson.......well let's just see shall we?

I expect you to have the majority of the possession and ipswich being dangerous on the break.ipswich are more physical this year with new additions greaves,Phillips, and a real menace to a defender delap a surprising monster in the challenge.we are really hoping for a good home record realistically but with the chance of a result away.we are still trying to gel this side so I make you favourites but if we get it together we can be a real challenge.an ipswich fan.would like to see you stay up too

Please, please please beat Ipswich. I live in Ipswich but you would think it was Manchester or Madrid the way their fans go on at the moment. If they beat you they'll probably be talking Champions League 😂😂 😂😂 2:59

Ipswich bang on for 3 points 😅

Added a few players? £100m worth at Ipswich. May the best team win!!

See you on Saturday guys, managed to snag a ticket. Both teams will be seeing it as their best chance for some time to get 3 points, might make for an attacking, open game. Uppa towen

"The brutality of promotion". Well said, Glenn. I'm glad you made the analogy to especially Dean Hammond back in the 2012-2013 season, where captain Hammond got sacrifised on the alter of premier league promotion. It never sat well with me (and many, many others I'm sure) as he was such a great player for us. Billy Sharp scored some really important goals in our race for promotion and got only 2 cameos in the prem, before he was moved on. Legend keeper Kelvin Davis quickly went down the pecking order.

Still don’t think we’re getting anywhere with the style of football this manager is wedded to.

Not just the lack of intensity in the press, from Archer for Rashford’s goal, but also the way he gave Rashford the option to cut inside instead of trying to force him on to his left and weaker foot.

Brereton Diaz needs to do more defensively. KWP was left horribly exposed for most of the game.

Great pod as always guys! 🎉🙌🏻

Does anyone know why Smallbone wasn't in the matchday squad ?

I thought Flynn was out best performer

I agree with Glen 3-2 Saints win 😇⚽😇

BBD is awful - just awful in every respect!

I watched a lot of Sheffield United last year, and I didn't think Archer was great. Didn't really show that he deserved regular minutes there, and never really got them. Maybe he's better than Armstrong, but....maybe not.

We seem to have a habit of not being able to sustain a performance beyond one half. We did it a lot last season too

Danny Fox did have plenty of chances in the PL in 2012, he looked poor and was (from memory) replaced by a young Shaw.

Get innnnn Steve 🎉😅

Ross Stewart has been a complete and utter waste of money so far.

We were taken apart in a 4-3-3 against the better Championship sides and have been short of fire power in a 3-5-2. I would go 4-2-3-1. Leslie should start with Downes to add some steel and an aerial option for Ramsdale. I think Diaz, Lallana and Dibling with Archer up top. Then bring on Fernandes and Ameyaw or Armstrong in the last 30.

4 ads in a 20 min video is a bit strong lads

Stephen's has never been, and will never be a Premier player. Only 2 years ago we loaned him to Bournemouth.

I think THB was substituted because he had a yellow card. I think Bednarek will be on the bench with Leslie and flynn in midfield after that I get lost. Obviously KWP at left back and Sugawara at right back.

Archer gotta be the top striker now. Armstrong is not a PL striker, period.

Different means Jack Stephens up top

Half the battle is believing you belong in the prem and performing like it. We need to have ago at a very vulnerable utd at St Mary's.

Fabulous post, Total Saints Podcast. I broke the thumbs up symbol on your video. Can't wait to see more from you. Continue to keep the fantastic work.

Cant say anyrhing else other than predictable. Playing out from the back is suicidal and Brentford have an unforgiving press. It was comical how predictable it was. I heard so many pwople saying the defense would get the team into trouble with dodgy back passes. It makes you wonder what Martin thinks is going to happen? If youre getting whooped by Brentford who still have a lot of players missing, its hard to see how he expects to get points against the better sides in the division. Just a really weird tactical plan and hes obviously spoken about how itll be painful sometimes, but im not sure even he ecpected to be losing every game.

Amazing to be as positive as Weeks. When you compare the opposition a team like Tractor Boys have faced so far to Saints this start is no less than abysmal imo. Granted, Ramsdale should be an upgrade. A player like A.Armstrong though-shines in Ch ship but PL is beyond his level, that is well documented over several seasons. Not that I value pundits that much, but the impression is that the rest of the league regard Saints as this year’s punching ball. They did so before league start, and I cant say they have gone horribly wrong so far, albeit a bit too early to write Saints off. I have followed Saints loosely from Norway since LeTissier shone alongside Shearer in his junior years and the state this franchise appears to be in atm is depressing to say the least

WEEKEND RUINER!

Manager does my head in. Anyone can see where are failings are, yet he persists with the ridiculous over-playing at the back. Stephens, Armstrong and Smallbone are not good enough at this level.

Archer is our most natural finisher, so for me he has to start in the no 9. I'd set up in a 433, where you can play Archer in the 9 or if you want a more physical presence up top, you play Dias through the middle and Archer off the right. Fernandes should start and even possibly Lallana (instead of Aribo or Smallbone). If you want a more defensive minded player in there, Lesley plays. For now I'd keep Dibling on the bench, but keep giving him 30mins (for a tiring Lallana).

We need to stop playing back 3 it doesn’t work

Smallbone and aribo both need to come out for the next game. Not willing enough to come back and pick up the ball putting to much pressure on the defence and not playing the passes through the line to great options for the forwards, lalana much better at this when he came on. The idea of playing 2 holding midfielders after scoring one goal in three games seems a little illogical to me.

We gave the ball away at the back last season too, but we were up against teams of limited quality who seldom took advantage. This season we are being punished by higher quality players.

Completely disagree that KWP is the better RB/RW than Sugawara. Sugawara is the first winger/back (this includes both left and right side players) in a long time that can beat his man send a decent ball into the box and also has the technical skills to finish as well. Even defensively KWP is questionable, he doesn’t win the ball clean, his technique is stopping his player by grappling and taking the foul. KWP is a decent ball runner, but no end product. (I didn’t get to watch the championship games last season because of where I live, but KWP hasn’t really changed in the PL games I’ve seen) Also, I’m pretty certain Harwood-Bellis was subbed off both games because he was sitting on a yellow both times. Form wise, the 3 CBs are about the same, they’ve all made pretty shocking mistakes. Although, I’d like to see Bednarek dropped before he scores an own goal, and also to stop those leaky passes. If I was to change it up, I’d drop BBD, Aribo, Smallbone, AA, Bednarek, KWP (for a proper LB/LM, and I don’t see much point in him playing on the right). Id like to see Fernandes, Ugochukwu and Archer get a start. At this stage I think Dibling, as good as he is, will be more effective off the bench, when the opponents have tired a bit, that way when he comes on he can dance around some spent legs. Solid debut from Ramsdale too. Good to see some confidence between the sticks, none of the goals against he could do much about.

Play KWP as a winger in front of Suga, good balance and sorts the gap out

There are signs we can do well. The game management, some players reaction to the Prems pace & unforgiving nature is learning curve Martin will relish. We now have options to adjust personnel and tactics. I believe RM will do this. Also, if we had scored one of our many against the last 3 teams, it could be a different outcome. Finishing is an issues currently. Not chance creation. Oh, & silly mistakes at the back. Standard! Let’s see.

Anyone writing off the manager, the style of play or individual players is over-reacting, and already forgetting how we got here. However, tweaks are needed for sure - I'd move back to 433 or 442 rather than have three at the back. We need to work on our distribution patterns from the back with this new GK to avoid being undone by a heavy press. A few players have started the season out of form and are ready for benching as well.

Do agree that subbing Harwood Bellis and not Stephens was a surpirse but not one I disagree with. On form he's been the weakest of the three. That Martin ruthless streak you referred to

Martin out

Brentford are a great club. Never give it large. Just an honest club….

Blue 💙🔵

As a forest fan I think a couple of things; 1) saints seemed nervous, 2) you set up for possession and failed to press, 3) nothing up top to aim at… one other thing, Forest aren’t that bad and I fully believe we will improve to maybe 10th or above, I’ve been watching Forest since 1975 and seen it all and I don’t think it’s bad saints lost today … with a bit of tweaking they will stay up… there are most definitely 3 teams that will be worse than saints and Forest so best of luck except for return fixture… PS I don’t often respond on other channels…

I'm a Forest Suporter, And as the Southampton Fans witnessed,,,We're better than given Credit For... Good luck this Season Southampton....😊

Cheaters never win
