Hazard says that fitness and motivation were lacking last year for Chelsea. Sounds familiar.

Astonishing really. What were they expecting after selling all their best players?!

There's nothing wrong with an 8th place finish for Southampton. Crazy decision.

I learnt after Ranieri not to criticise another clubs decision to sack their manager. Sometimes you have to be closer to a situation to understand when the cracks are appearing.
For me, Southampton dropped off markedly last season. Their football was poor and they just looked like a club going through the motions.
Yes, 8th and a cup final is a good season for Southampton. But I think they've made the judgement that they were about to decline rapidly under Puel and acted. Very smart of them if so.

There have also been several rumours of discontent, amongst the players, about his methods in training.

Did it concern what they could eat?

Makes me think of another club in a similar stadium for some reason...

That's a well thought out and reasoned post.
You've converted me to the same thinking, from the outside they look fine but as opposition fans we've not seen week-in week-out changes.
