Not a problem. We only lost by one goal. |  | |  |

The clubs that succeed usually have the same manager for a long period. As I said Bates & McMenemy both suffered big defeats on several occasions, so did Alex Ferguson , for a club like United to lose 5-0 to Newcastle one week and then 6-3 to Saints back in 1996 was akin to a 9-0 defeat. Two much is made of individual results rather than the overall picture. On Saturday injuries aside, not too many were unhappy before the game about the line up, you are right the manager doesn't know what is his best line up is yet, but that is due to signing 4 players on deadline day and having to give them a try. When he knows whether say Maitland Niles or Edozie etc are his best options or not he will hopefully start to hone his tactics. |  |

The 'overall picture' is: A manager who demonstrates very little tactical ability; Too many lost games and goals conceded (ofter in long spells, which he proves incapable of turning around); and No discernible long term progress being made in terms of results, team performance or position in the league. |  |

I didnt think many were happy with the lineup on Saturday. This thread was pre-match. https://www.fansnetwork.co.uk/football/southampton/forum/290035/ralph-on-the-sou To dick about with the back line so much was mental. The centre back pairing had been one of the positives this season. Dropping Peraud was another mistake and why not play dnepo who had done ok. Ralph has Such a scatter gun approach! |  |

'The clubs that succeed usually have the same manager for a long period' That depends who they are. To compare Ralph to Mc Menemy and Ferguson doesn't hold water. McMenemy turned things round a lot quicker. Ferguson was managing one of the richest clubs in the world. Ralph probably hasn't a clue what to do with those young players hes bought. As for Maitland Niles or Edozie thats just scary... |  | |  |

"the clubs that succeed usually have the same manager for a long period." WALOB. Like multiple CL and PL winning Chelsea? No club in the PL holds on to a manager for a long period unless they are one of the top 5 managers in the world like Pep, Fergie or Klopp. Every other club changes their manager far more frequently than the time RH has been here. Why are you comparing the PL to football in the 60s/70s/80s? You might as well compare it to water polo. |  |

Leaving it until deadline day and gambling on the PSV striker signing was incredibly foolhardy. Not sure how Ralph, or any other manager for that matter, can turn things around with such an impotent forward line. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads
| Southampton To Give Ralph Hasenhuttl More Time on 13:05 - Oct 4 with 1986 views | MytchettSaint | I’m done with that useless prick having excuse after excuse made for him. The only thing he’ll achieve given more time is another club record of the wrong sort being broken. I no longer enjoy going to the games anymore. I look at some of our players and wonder what they could do with someone with a bit of structure and tactical nous at the helm. If he’s still in post next summer I think the club know what they can expect when they come out with the emails. |  |

Nick, seriously!! Hassenhutl is not up to the job..he's tactically inept and berates players publicly..rather than admitting he's at fault.. He needs to go...he's no McMenemy..or Ferguson..he's a poor man's Nigel Adkins..in fact Nigel is probably a superior man manager than the Austrian ponce. |  |

| Southampton To Give Ralph Hasenhuttl More Time on 18:45 - Oct 4 with 1640 views | I_would | Ralph informed the media before the Everton match that he would be rotating the players. We didn't know what that really meant then or now. Is it possible that he sacrifices the 'easier' games to search for glory in the prestige ones by choosing the strongest team and preparing them better as we seem to get some very surprising positive performances and results against the top teams sometimes and depressing losses against some very poor teams? Surely Ralph couldn't be that egotistical. |  |

What, like we did to Che at Wolves when he was unmarked in front of a completely unguarded net? Or in all the other games over the past couple of seasons when Che has managed to miss when it looked easier to score? Proven PL class strikers don't miss those chances. Most clubs have at least one forward who can find the net regularly, we don't have any. |  | |  |
| Southampton To Give Ralph Hasenhuttl More Time on 10:57 - Oct 5 with 1284 views | franniesTache | 3 wins in 30 games, he doesn't need time he needs sacking. He's had 4 years (almost) and we've not improved in the areas that were most obviously wrong. If anything we've got worse. Our defence under Ralph has been appalling the whole time he's been here, we're the only side in the league who have currently not kept a clean sheet and it seems to be getting worse from the start of this season. We don't score enough goals, nor make enough chances, and teams that concede a lot and score little go down. His team selections and tactics are too rigid and often wrong, yet we never hear him accept he's to blame, instead he publicly blames the players. His man management has been talked about as lacking since he joined, anyone anywhere near the club knew that Rohl was the link to the players, everyone anywhere near the club has heard the stories about how Ralph doesn't engage. This is made even worse by the fact that he won't play new players, and doesn't give young players a consistent chance when they're doing well. I've always wanted Ralph to succeed, because if he does it means Saints are doing well, but he's getting worse and his time has come and gone. I hope the board aren't just doing the usual vote of confidence in public, if not they're as arrogant and negligent as Ralph himself. |  | |  |

You're right(ish) 3 in 22, 4 in 23 including cups, 3 league wins since we beat Norwich in February this year and in that time Halaand has scored more goals than we have in the league. Absolutely piss poor, and any other manager gets sacked for that. [Post edited 5 Oct 2022 12:00]

| Southampton To Give Ralph Hasenhuttl More Time on 14:55 - Oct 5 with 1074 views | Poirot | Not only have i lost faith in Hasenhuttl (last feb 9-0 at old trafford final straw) i am now looking at Semmens. He had a disasterous fans forum, where he seem to show his true colors. In the grand scheme of things, paying off Hasenhutte is peanuts now and really shouldnt be a barometer on having to keep someone anyway. I firmly believe that Hasenhuttl has lost enthusiam for the job and is only now here for the money. |  | |  |
