I just don't see Bazunu being a premier league goalie in the long-term, he is not good enough at the most basic task for a goalkeeper that is stopping shots.
I have come around to Kelleher being the better long term prospect.

Bazunu has played every minute of every game this season until last night. So the idea that Southampton are looking to get rid of him is nonsense.

Southampton are a selling club. If they get an offer they feel is worthwhile they'll sell. Doubt they will get an offer though. |

The idea that a 22 year old goalkeeper who has been an ever present in a Championship side in the mix for automatic promotion, and who kept had 11 clean sheets (8th best in the division) has had a "bad" season, is just nuts. Is there a bigger set of knuckle-dragging supporters in the world than Ireland fans?
Every player that comes through for us is derided as sh*t even when they're demonstrably streets ahead of most of their peers; we don't think it's possible to get a manager who will take a greater interest in the national set up beyond showing up for a few games a year, instead preferring to go for "old heads" who'll "get the lads riled up for a game" etc etc. We're like the working class voting for the Tories, constantly choosing the option that harms us because their soundbites are nice and easy to understand.

I see Southampton decided to actually defend and not give up chances to the opposition last night.
Preston had 1 shot and an xG of just 0.07 overall. Adding insult to injury. They're usually open and give up multiple chances. |

In a weird way some of that is down to Baz. We f**k around with it a lot at the back with gav in goals and it invites pressure. . McCarthy isn't a footballer so there was no dallying around at the back for the sake of it which probably suited the team more. Not writing him off by any stretch and I'd expect and hope he's our first choice next season but he really hasn't been great

Strong disagree. Preston were simply awful and McCarthy had nothing to do. You'd have to watch Southampton play 10 games in a row with McCarthy in goal to see if there is a real difference. Martin wants his teams to play out from the back. They do overdo it at times, yeah.

I strongly suspect that was to do with Preston more so than anything else. I can see your point you do see lots of Soton fans complaining that they become over reliant on Bazunu under pressure. Can’t really rely on McCarthy.

agree on relying on McCarthy, he's sh*t. I do hope it means less pointless fannying about the back going nowhere

Not ideal, but it shouldn't affect him as badly as it would have if he were an outfield player. He's young and should rehab it well.
A ruptured Achilles tendon is close to a death sentence in Basketball.

That's a worst case scenario come to fruition. Achilles ruptures are probably the worst tendon/ligament rupture you can have. It won't retire him, but it could severely hamper his development. The risk of re-rupture is quite high, especially for someone who will need to be performing explosive changes of movement like a goalkeeper.

Effectively gone for the whole of next season you'd imagine as they'll surely buy a new keeper now so not guaranteed his place once back.

He'd be back in contention late January if all goes well. But yes, they'll have to buy a GK.
