  1. Thanks mate, I may try the Heckle or Handle Bar off Burgos.
  2. I'm arriving in Manila Saturday afternoon. Know anywhere in Makati that's showing the game?
  3. Great effort, spectacular result but not buying all the Chambers love. Granted a great prospect and lots of effort going forwards but City looked most effective attacking down their left and Chambers' pace, or lack of, was exposed for the goal. Great to see him coming through but lots of improvement still required before he challenges Clyne.
  4. Which is clearly why Fonteyn replaced Clyne when he was injured... ...
  5. Cork can cover Victor but I am worried about replacing Clyne - didn't he go off with a hamstring? Maya and Chambers don't inspire me and we lose the right hand side going forwards.
  6. Don't buy the comments re Chambers and JWP. Chambers looked slow vs. WBA so what happened vs. Redmond yesterday should have been anticipated and JWP for all his technical skills does not suggest to me that he's going to strike fear into the heart of any defense.
  7. Is Clyne still unfit/carrying a knock? I don't know why MP is persisting with Chambers. I agree with blooding the kids but he has already showed that he can be got at with pace and Redmond was all over him today. Clyne would have shut him down.
  8. Interest comment on Redknapp. I'll never forget how he sold our youngsters down the road in a cup game just to shut those up asking for them to feature in the first team.
  9. Agreed, can't see the sense in this unless we have Sinclair or another prospect in the wings.
  10. I've just arrived in Singapore. Do you show all the Saints games?
  11. Not overly different to another midfielder that graced our club .......
  12. For what it's worth, I do speak Portuguese - having previously lived in Brazil for four years. Damiao is tweeting; "How's it going guys. Today is the final of the Junior Gaucho Championship at 14.30 at the training center in Alvorada between our Inter and juventude. Let's go and support our youngsters" Gaucho's are people from the South of Brazil and CT is Centro de Treinamento and as a number of people have posted Inter and Juventude are two Brazilian teams.

  14. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2336439/Danny-Simpson-Torino.html Would be a good back-up to Clyne.
  15. Sorry if I missed it elsewhere but has there been any reason given for why Shaw was only on the bench today?
  16. Our recovery from the initial run of games was terrific. So many times in the past, teams with a horrendous opening schedule never go on to recover their confidence and end up relegated - think Bolton last year. Changing the manager added dynamism to the team but the inner character has never been in doubt.
  17. Would like to see Adam start in place of Ramirez. Other than that, more of the same please.
  18. How does Jos get in the team ahead of Jose?
  19. Sunderland losing today means they're not out of it with games against Man U, Chelsea, Everton, Spurs and away to Newcastle to come. We play them in our last away game and there could still be a lot riding on it.
  20. Lived in Manila for five years and footy didn't get a look in over Basketball and Pool Get all the games in Shanghai but I'll be in Singapore to watch us beat the Toon
  21. Form is temporary, class is permanent.
  22. The 5 minutes of extra time were inexplicable.
  23. For me, the clearest problem is Ramirez whom I don't consider has the pace or interest in playing a high intensity pressing game. Shame he's our record signing.
  24. Measured build-up has been replaced by frantic aggression. Headless chicken spring to mind!
