Saint Without a Halo

Pen

Agree but Austin just doesn't look fit enough yet for some reason he is huffing and puffing just 20 mins after coming on today and after starting Thursday we need a fit Austin and Boufal to recover to add the final touches to some neat and clever play and a good defence

Long off not Redmond?

Where is Dalek when you want him he has spent years predicting 17th

Tell them what! I actually posed a question!

In your opinion not in mine

The problem with pressing football is it takes too much out of the players as evidenced by the way Pochs teams fall away at the end of seasons and why Poch never really showed interest in the cups With the large number of games we have this season we are playing a less intensive system the question is will it work?

I can see the Wenger school of football in Puel lots of possession and very pretty what we need is bite at the end

In our favour hopefully

Is JWP injured? I know Jayrod has a knock but neither are on the bench

Our crossing is atrocious

Common sense reigns

As this publicity was created by a Southampton councilor, surely he was better off talking direct to the club? If he didn't then I suggest fans consider that when he comes up for reelection

Lots of neat link up play but no strength in shooting

A real leader in every way Would make a great defensive midfielder if he played just in front of two center halves

Long not with it and Austin struggling to stay on side

The team is fine Puel has promised to play youngsters so TArgett JWP and is Yoshida any worse than Jose Currently . Jose needs to get his act together following a long successful summer with Portugal and the United saga prior to the window closing

Spot on! it is the result of millions of years of Darwinian survival of the fittest.All animal species including humans adapt to their environments developing different strengths and weaknesses. Tropical fish will not survive long in the North Sea and vice versa It is very clear East Africans and others living at height have developed better use of sparse oxygen giving them stamina and as a result they are generally better long distance runners West Fridays and carrabeans of west African origin are generally more powerful muscular runners hence the 100 and 200 m etc this is scientific fact not fascism!

I agree that the academy is not racist as per my posts earlier, however in your defence of the academy you have carried out a similar misinformed slander on Dubai. As a resident in Dubai I can confirm that whilst it is far from perfect It at least employes many migrants, who come here willingly to escape poverty at home and gives them and their families back home a better life not all of them are construction workers. The conditions and labour rights of construction workers have improved tremendously in the last twenty years and continue to do so and while a lot can still be done in this area their conditions are far better than those they experience in their home countries which is why they continue to seek work here Dubai also now allow and encourages immigrants to live here and set up there own companies operating in many sectors such as hospitality IT service sectors industry aviation health etc with residence rights giving them infrastructure and access to funding not available to them at home. Many of dubais original migrants from the Indian subcontinent twenty years ago still live here and a significant number of them now form a comfortable middle class with a number also very affluent forming businesses and employing others back home. I suggest Dubai has a much better migrant policy and attitude to new migrants than many European countries now do Also most of the buildings and properties being built in Dubai are now owned by Asians and Europeans not by Arab masters Dubai has absorbed 500% more migrants than its original people and they live pretty well together, it is far from perfect but it does have a lot of lessons on tolerance of other cultures and new migrants that many Europeans and Americans can learn from especially based on recent events in Europe and the States. I think in a perverse sort of way you have proved the point that our academy is far from racist by demonstrating unintentionally how misinformation can be used to shed the wrong light on circumstances.

Being Swiss owned and with Switzerland having a set of much richer and classier dodgey banks I am surprised we got this lot! But then Swiss banks need to be anonymous to protect their wealthy clients (a large portion of whose monies are gained in unorthodox manners or via tax avoidance). Most Clients of Swiss banks would probably see through what is essentially a company that takes bets on stocks rather than sports cards etc and hence its need to attract a different set of more gulable clients. Banc de Binary's services seem to be a much simpler form of spread betting ( with bigger spreads)

And are you certain we don't have a sell on clause?

Having seen the two stone wall pens not given at Old Trafford how the hell was that a pen? Three pens against us in four games too!

Also difficult for Forster to come out or see the ball with Kos lying in his way

What a load of tosh we sign players who we believe have a chance of making it Even then we are mistaken in Eight or Nine out of every ten signed We would be stupid to turn down a player we feel has a chance of making it because he doesn't fit a so called stereo type We are known for focusing more on technique and skills rather than the physical size a lot of other clubs go for so far we have been more successful in having a better percentage of those who make it to actually say we are taking the also rains others don't want is clearly not true our selection criteria may be a little different but it works Parents and agents are bringing their kids to us because we have a better pathway into the main teams a fact proven by the sheer numbers of successful players we bring through However at any club those who make it at any level in the four top divisions are a minority and never more than around 10 to 15 percent at best of those signed
