Did you see today's game or the season opener? He was very involved in both.

have only seen saints twice this season so far. Not overly impressed. Fairly solid but unspectacular. Wouldn't know he's playing at times. Early days yet though

They seemed to be very positive towards Bazunu today tbf, and in their 4-4(?) Draw with Norwich

I pointed that out a few weeks ago on this forum and got a frosty reaction to it. Board selling off 200m worth of players couldn’t even do it in time for the start of the season couldn’t even get Piroe for Martin don’t mind ball playing CBs. It’s just as well they have Bazunu to blame for it in a few weeks! Nonsense fanbase.

Yeah, that may well be true, but his defensive work is definitely suspect on occasion!

Yeah I would say they're even more reactionary and hysterical than us

They don't strike me as the most enlightened bunch of football fans, in truth.

Not watching the game but the fans over on Saints Web seem less than convinced by Manning so far. A lot of comments about a mistake a game and him being quite limited.

Livramento has now gone to Newcastle. Good opening day performance from Ryan - I'd say he's made the right choice.

He played well, Smallbone also very good in midfield. Excellent possession football. Bazunu had little to do, could do nothing about the goal but his distribution was first rate.

Mannings final stats for last season were impressive. Top 10 in 18 different metrics, mostly attacking/creative. 5 goals 108 Key Passes (1st) 10 Assists (joint 2nd) 11.4 Expected Assists (2nd) 11.5 xAssisted Goals (2nd) 21 Goal Creating Actions (2nd) 72 Passes into Pen Area (2nd) 95 Fouls Drawn (2nd) 354 Crosses (2nd) 0.28 xAssisted Goals/90 (3rd) 0.28 xAssists/90 (3rd) 340 Progressive Passes Received (4th) 135 Corner Kicks (4th) 179 Shot Creating Actions (5th) 3307 Touches (5th) 0.51 Goal Creating Actions/90 (8th) 24 Crosses into Pen Area (8th) 11 Yellow Cards (8th) 4.35 Shot Creating Actions/90 (9th) Russell Martin also talked up Mannings character and how he's a good head to have in the dressing room. Telling that one of the first things he did upon getting the Southampton gig was to get Manning in the door.

I think Luton and Sheffield Utd are the two PL teams he turned down. Probably felt he had as much or more chance of PL football next season with Southampton than either one of these but the main factor for him may well have been a manager he knows and who rates him very highly. No idea what his main position will be as his versatility is one of the reasons Martin is signing him but he should have a good season ahead.

Russell Martin claiming Manning turned down two Premier League clubs to go to Southampton. With him, Bazunu and Smallbone all at Southampton next season it will make them an interesting team to follow from an Irish point of view.

Good move for him. Would be great for us if he could kick on from his latest form.
