Actually think he is becoming an even better manager than last year. Was thinking earlier. It would have been amazing to see MLT play for Adkins. Playing in the Ramirez role. Would that have caught the england managers eyes or what?

Lambert hardly ever jumps for balls with his baclk to goal. Its always a little nudge then a flick on or bring it down.

On paper it should be boruc but I do wonder if the incident against spurs will mean he will not play again for us. NA considers the fans ery highly and is thankfull for the support we have shoiwn him and the team.plaing boruc will no doubt split the fan base .

Could be said that we were by far the best team in the division, once the last 7 weeks were excluded. But you cant, can you. Just exclude the time your were sh1t to prove you were great. Seriously, you are saying that, from wherever it was that you watched the game, that we did not batter Reading at our place? Well. that is staggering. But still, I guess the euphoria of actually being at the game must have clouded a lot of peoples judgements. They must have scored with every shot they had. we missed SOOOO many. But hey, because they won they must have been better. Just like Celtic are better than Barcelona.

We were deffo better than them at our place regardless of the result. They were much better than us at their place again regardless of the result.

Straight swap morgan and jwp. No change of formation. We play 2 holding mid with ramirez in between them and srl.

the Skates are noisy, but they do not sing louder than anyone else. They just have a frickin stupid bell and drum going for the entire game. Watching the Crawley game, there were large periods of it where you could not hear a single word being sung, just that bl00dy ring ring, thump thump. If that is what is needed to be classed as the bestest in the world, then you can keep it quite honestly.

Then it won't get sorted. Is *****ing in social media the way to get him to meet though?

Interesting that our pre-match presser is due in 10 mins!

If i read that story correctly, Bologna want 20m up front, Liverpool will pay 14m up front max. However Liverpool have now offered 5m up front for a years loan, then 15m next year to make it complete. Bologna have always seemed to want the most the can get up front, so why would they even consider pools offer? If it looks like bulls**t, and smells like bulls**t ...

No surprise unfortunately. When he came on against Wolves in the summer, NA was constantly screaming at him to do this, do that, do the other, whereas Punch just got on and done it. It seemed to me that either he is not the brightest bulb in the multipack, or that he was refusing to play the way NA wanted. Either was only going to end in this.

Strange question? Answer is no by the way. Hope that helps. You dont agree that certain posters on this forum are spoiling it for the majority with their constant trolling?
-
And so it begins. Another thread hijacked by some who seem to think that if they do not tell us their point of view every other hour then we might forget. We get it. You think we should buy players earlier. You think people who actually think NC is doing a good job are incapable of thinking he can make a mistake. Please, Mods, Start a sticky for each of these trolls, then when they feal the urge to tell us for the thousandth time that we are a yoyo club, they have a place to do it.

Cant see us announcing it until intl clearance and visa are all sorted. Probs be wednesday/thursday I would expect.
-
Still don't get it. Unless the Trust no longer need the loan from the council, there is no way they can win. PCC will not lend them the money if Portpin are still in.
-
Played first game of he season, then pulled his hamstring.
-
Plus he does not want Spurs. One of the reasons he stated he wanted to come to us was that we have basically promised him he would play every week and we will build a team around him. He would not get that at Spuds even if they offered the same wages. I am beginning to believe he will come to us, but it will be the end of next week before he signs.
-
I am confused over the whole guarantee business. If the Bank Bologna are getting their loan from require us to supply a guarantee for the final instalments of this deal, would that make us liable for that loan if Bologna 'do a pompey'? I would imagine if that is the case then there is absolutely no way NC will agree, and nor should he.

Or they might say "Ok, he is on 65k, but he is one of europes hottest young talents and is a regular for his national team, a team that is ranked FOURTH!!!!!!! in the world. Maybe he deserves it, maybe if I can be an England regular I will get paid that much. Best I knuckle down."

Read Simon Jordon's book whilst on hols. Whilst he is a grade a cock, it was a real eye opener with regards to where all this premier league money goes. A large portion of that £40m will go to our current players and their agents. Then the new player we bring in will take a large chunk. All of this has to be paid BEFORE we get the first large chink of that cash. So I would not be expecting any cuts to any fees to the supporters just yet.

Aged 21 with 9 full international caps - i would say that would get a rubber stamp as quickly as is possible.

They really are screwed, aren't they?

Does this mean that TB will not entertain the trust if they do not slip into bed with BC?

Is It The Southampton Way or the highway For Nigel Adkins?
merrimd replied to BILLY's topic in The Saints
Not sure where he gets the idea that the 4-3-3 formation is being forced upon him from above? In truth, a 4-4-2, with our current set of players, against some of the best teams in the world really does not bare thinking about. Total carnage. The change in formation is 100% down to us having to try and stop being completely overrun in the middle of the park, which having just 2 in there would undoubtedly do. And if we are trying to learn to play a new formation, why on earth would we want to change it after 35 mins in a game where the result is completely irrelevant. Surely it would be better to just carry on "0-0 lads" and get it right for next weekend.
