A player that kind of sums up Southampton in recent years. We develop him through the academy. He gets in the first team and he shows himself to be very pacey and scores 4 or 5 goals. Let him leave for a few million then sign Mara for 10 million who presently looks a worse player. | | | |

Off field issues were a major part of letting Obafemi go, he’s had similar issues at Swansea | | | |

Ironically if Obafemihad scored those goals in the French league we would have been paying £15mill for him | |

Obafemi has scored 3 times this season for Swansea in 19 appearances, in his first season for them he got 12 not exactly setting the world alight, undoubtably a talented player, but seemingly has an attitude issue and lacks the application to turn a few good games into a good run of form | |

For me the point is, yes Obafemi was probably not going to be the striker we all crave for and he does have by all accounts issues off the pitch. I had no problem with us selling him. It's just we've spent over 25 million quid on Armstrong and Mara and their combined goal output so far is about equal to what we got out of Obafemi who the club and supporters deemed not good enough. This for highlights our poor recruitment over recent years. Don't get me wrong Armstrong I think is a decent player and Mara may yet come good. Unfortunately it maybe in the Championship that this comes to fruition. | | | |

You missed the point Nick. My point was had Obafemi scored his goals in the 2019/20 in the top french league we would have been snapping him up at 10/15mill. You cant tell me Mara is better prospect. | |

What? Mara worse than Obafemi? Recollections May vary. | | | | Login to get fewer ads

Mara has scored 1 nice goal and had virtually not a shot on target other than that. No real pace or strength. I really hope he comes good though. Obafemi...as I said not really good enough either, but don't you recall his great goal away at Chelsea in either 2-1 or 2-0 win. His late equaliser away at Man Utd in the 2-2 draw. Winner against Fulham away in the cup match. | | | |

Yes, well I scored some lovely goals when I played, but that didn’t make me a good player. Though I was offered a trial at Spurs, not for me though. His equaliser that day he put down to RH telling g him where to stand positionally. Tella is a better player than Obafemi, but still couldn’t make an impression, hence his loan. | | | |
