Pingpong would like to have the last word.

I other words a massive upgrade on Bazunu.

Legible

Readable

They're just upset that Long played his part on taking us close to a FA Cup final, with his appearance against Leicester.

But who can forget the lovely Mary Milligan, here starring in a Scandinavian production, posted until the mods ban it?

hes running his contract down,he will go for a decent fee.

I've been telling my Leicester supporting colleagues how vital both Baz and Smallbone are, to Martin's system. With Baz, it's important to preempt doubt, by admitting right away that there are better shot stoppers about. And then focus on the cool sweeper keeper you get, and how calm the defence will be playing it out. Just doing my bit. 🙂

Has Steve Gibson demanded a fine and points deduction yet?

Hmmm. Not sure signing guys at the tail end of their career is a solid strategy for the EFL. In theory maybe; in practice, I'm really not convinced.

I see Charles as best played in a three man midfield more advanced from central/defensive midfield duties, or in the Azaz attacking midfield role. With Saints he's been less impressive when asked to dig in and play a defensive midfield game. He has the pace and athleticism to thrive as a 10 and play higher up the pitch. The improvement in his game since he joined SW in late 2024 is clear though he's not yet the finished product. Also seems to thrive in a faster more open game, compared to some of the physical, congested Championship matches; the three FA Cup matches against Prem opponents this season showed as much. Don't understand the claims that he's over-hyped - the best is yet to come for him. Whether it's with Southampton or a Premier League Club is the intriguing unknown.

You have made little robots very sad. Look as their tears rust their metal bits, falling into your mash. 🙂

This is a guess btw!

Can't see either of them coping with the demands of a Championship season, especially from mid-December onwards. I think Jimenez would be a great signing for Saints on a rotation basis, but that's the thing we do well, rotate.

Aston Villa when Emi Martinez goes to Juve.

Steven Davis reminded me of the players we signed in 70's and 80's, a solid Pro who brought balance and experience to a young exciting line-up. Was luckily enough to meet him at the Awards Dinner at the end of 'The Poch Season', top bloke.

How so, oh virtuous one?

They'll be playing old men's walking football 🙂

Actually, no, probably not. Good player though and did a decent job for us but wouldn’t have him down as a legend. All subjective of course and I’ve obviously got a different criteria of what constitutes legend than you do but if we hand it out too freely then it ceases to mean anything.

Yeah I should think these will be favourites for sure.

I would, he always was and always will be a journeyman who can take a good free kick. Otherwise he is just average crap

Who would have thought it ... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cr47x99k5n6t?post=asset%3A4e0f3e35-bf9d-4b17-b920-77f8899cd914#post

This forum got George Burley the Scotland job, make it happen chaps!

A quote from a Foxes of Leicester article about the likely appointment of Martin and the prospect of him signing Smallbone and Bazunu (they obviously do not look at the stats or this forum): With Bazunu in between the sticks, a promotion challenge could be on the cards. Keep on praying lads and lasses; make it happen. 🦊🦊🦊 👍 😇

I see Wolves are looking strong for the Championship campaign this year. Kieran Trippier signing on and now rumoured to be going back for ex favourite Jimenez.
