Where do Transfer Markt numbers even come from? They have Jakolis and Germain as 3rd and 4th, which I have a hard time accepting.

I’m hoping we stay up - it’s been FAR too long since we were in the Championship, and I’d hate to go back down after only one season, particularly as it looks like Southampton will get relegated from the PL and it’d be nice to see another couple of South Coast derby’s where there’s not a couple of levels between the two sides.
That said, we have been shipping a fair few goals (44 after 25 games) and started our captain, Marlon Pack, who usually plays as a DM in the CB role against Blackburn overnight, while our other CB options are in on loan, relatively young or seem to play both CB and LB/RB.

Coach hasn’t really given any indication of that in the past though, right?
Oh yeah and that guy too

Forza team Maxi!
The only squad rotation he permits is who sits where on the bench during games.
Some of the comments 
Surprised the Cops haven’t done a welfare check on him.
Would they genuinely bring him into the starting 11 for the rest of this season given his relative inexperience?
Not if we want to stay up. Suspect he’d be a bench option.
I’d say it’ll be a fairly difficult decision who to start if all fit. You have 3 positions in the front line that need to be filled by:
Oahim, Caceres, Lolley, Costa and then you also have Segicic sitting in the sidelines with maybe Kucharski, considering he’s lately been used as a mid. Of the main 4, I can’t see any of them being happy with an extended spell on the side-lines. What’s more, they’re all top class starters for the A-League. The only nailed on starter I can see would be Lolley, but he’s obviously exhausted after these past few games. Hopefully we can go on a decent streak and he can be benched for a few games.
The way I see it now, the lack of change lies in a few factors:
- Change in tactics, Talay will be wanting to have as much familiarity in games as possible
- Fear of losses, we’ve not lost for a while so Talay will not want to change a decent combination
- Stubborness by Talay and the management team
Looks like Milos Degenek is going to sign for another Serbian club, Backa Topola.
Lucky bastards at that club, they’ll have a triumvirate of Milos if it happens.
No-one cares for Miloses anymore. It’s Adrians that have been gems for us.

Segecic and Vlastelica.
He’s done well to get a mention
I had Segecic (it’s all Segecic this Segecic that these days) and Mierzejewski
