Disco Stu

Interesting that 80% of Premier League Southampton cost Sport Republic just £100m yet League 1 Leicester value themselves at £200m. I won't pretend to understand the intricacies of how clubs are valuated but either their asking price is extortionate or ours was dirt cheap.

Judging by the comments, they don't want him anyway because he hurt their feelings.

Much more the type of player I thought we'd go for this summer. Target man that can hold up the ball and has a decent goalscoring record. Suggests Mubama was likely not our first choice.

From what I've read, it's not one of his strengths.

Larin has never had a half like that. There's no reason to believe he would today in BBD's place based on previous performances. BBD was completely anonymous and his first touch has been poor the few times he's had the ball. He's been very disappointing.

And he's looked quite good there I thought.

We're going to win the league! And we're going to look awful doing it.

Anyone else finding it strange that it's August and we haven't released our away kit?

I've told you once.

Today's the last day to appeal against the charges. If I had to guess, we'll find out tomorrow.

Roerslev did nothing positive that half. He never took on his man and always looked for an easy pass back or sideways. Welington was the complete opposite and looked lively. Him alongside Scienza down that left side caused them problems. Brereton-Diaz is a carthorse. An enigma for me because he's looked awful every time I've seen him play but he gets good numbers in the Championship. Maybe we're not utilising him properly? Nice to see Downs get a goal but I'm still not convinced he's up to the level. I appreciate it's pre-season but overall, I don't think we've looked that great. All about getting minutes into the legs at this stage though I guess. If we get through this game without any new injuries, it will be a positive day regardless of performance.

I think it looks good. I don't mind the alternative crest either. I'll buy one.

FOOTBALL PLEASE

Good job we got Dobbin sorted early then.

How can it only be 3 minutes stoppage time? The water break alone is 3 minutes and that was one of the most stop start halfs we've seen this tournament.
