My god, how many players have they lost?
This seems shocking. Straight back down into the Championship, I reckon.

I think there are too many other poor teams, so they will be okay.
They have sold a whole bunch of average to decent players for a vast amount of money.
It seems to me that they were over performing due to the influence of their manager

said, as long as they spend it wisely they will be fine..
I bet their owner is over the moon with the past few weeks.

I suspect they will be alright. It's a risky business selling the core of their squad, and there will certainly be a few more departures but with the money coming in they will have more funds to invest. The board have probably estimated the impact of the players leaving versus the transfer fees and league position impact.
The bigger problem that they - and Liverpool - will have is integrating this many new faces into a club in the same season, like we did last year.
Southampton no doubt have a new batch of kids to push through.
Add that to say spending 40-50mil and they will be fine and minted at the same time.

I'd like to think that is down to us not willing to pay the ridiculous prices their average/decent players have gone for.
Southampton have shafted Liverpool because they knew Liverpool had money to burn.
Liverpool will soon realise that the players they have signed wont be as affective at a big club where the pressure is immense.
As it is that is definitely in the realms of impossibility!What if they'd all signed for us? What THEN?
So Southampton now need:
Right Back:
Centre Back:
Left Back:
Attacking Midfielder:
At least!

My mate who is a huge saints fan reckons Matt targett is the next big star coming through. At left back again no less
