  1. ...this stage of the season... quite glad Rose and now Mason have been called up to England...hope they pick up niggling injuries and get told to sign for bigger clubs...I'd rather Ryan was focused on proving Woy wrong for us...
  2. Saint Jude

    Toby

    genuinely very very happy if he stays... and for me, it would soften the pain of losing Morgan...I'd go as far as to say... if we coudl only keep one.. I'd keep Toby (based upon we'd get decent money for Morgan)....AND... he wants to play for the club... although wil be much more comfortable when teh deal is done...
  3. ...and of course let's not forget the extra millions we get from the premier league for finishing 3rd? before we even get to Champions league...
  4. what do we remember more 1976 FA Cup... or finishing 2nd in 83/84? however...right now.. FA Cup is a huge punt as needs alot of luck to actually win the final... and we've got a really good chance of 3rd or 4th... I'd take 4th place over a FA Cup semi-final...
  5. Let's see how close McCarthy is and play him?... We're only one injury away from him playing..land I'd hate to lose another CB in this game....
  6. I guess I didn't mean all kids... but for the first time in all my years following Saints...I'm starting to feel like we should focus totally on the league... normally I'd swap a couple of places in the league for a good cup run and a hope of a cup... but suddenly don't feel that way.. between 4th and 6th...
  7. look more muscular to me... very similar to how he went off at Arsenal...
  8. .....Let's play the kids against Ipswich... we've got a serious chance in the league.. and can't afford too many more injuries..
  9. it's just a strikers confidence... needs a few to go in... and he'll be back on it again... it's the old adage... it's time to worry when you are not getting chances...
  10. still think it would be a big coup to make this happen... probably won't happen and yes we probably wouldn't make huge amounts...but it is still great PR for other youngsters ...and they won't all move on straight away...
  11. genuinely hope he rediscovers some form somewhere... as it's sad to see... but think he needs to go somewhere like the States where the scrutiny of his past form won't get in the way.... he'd be mad to go to a QPR..as strikers need chances to get their form back.. not struggling sides
  12. Pretty much agree with this...but also would add that Yoshida looked pretty solid tonight.. given the stick he gets... can we get on and sign Toby... looked very comfortable tonight in centre mid.. pleasantly surprised by the quality of his passing...
  13. ...let's see what kind of side we have.... cold Monday night... 1-0 down... time to show their metal...
  14. one game at a time...but.... if we want to finish in the top 4...we have to belive in ourselves.. and that we're better than Man U and Arsenal... bring the next few games on...
  15. frankly... we're not going to be 2nd end of season... so not too disappointed if city win... and keep the chasing pack a bit further away...
  16. On one hand we're praising all the analysis done at the club...and then based on a few first game outings, judging the kid's future... The club believes he'll make it...who knows whether he'll develop/ or return from a tough year..but pretty harsh to judge his technique/ future at this stage...
  17. We shouldn't forget that he did a very good job for us... And apart from the apparent lack of a plan B broadly moved us forward... Yes... It all ended badly.... Seems to me that part of our success has been... Decide a type/style of play... Then recruit both manager and players that fit that style... At Spurs they just bought a bunch of random stars and expected a manager to 'fix it'.... If that works it's going to be luck not judgement Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. last 25 minutes were great today.. apart from one moment from Pelle in about the 90th minute.. when he didn't challenge for a header which allowed Leicester to get through for their chance that they shoudl have scored... I know it's the right at the end... but it looked really odd that Pelle didn't go for it... did anyone else see? or know why?
  19. Thought we overplayed it at the back a couple of times today and it all felt a bit flat up until a few minutes before Long came on... Didn't understand we Mane and Tadic didn't swap sides a bit more... Tadic seems to want cross with his wrong foot when he was on the right and Mane needs more end product..but overall still pleased we're getting results even when we're not playing brilliantly...

  20. Presumably she could put that money in, but only a limited amount could go on salary due to the £4m max increase on salaries... once you get over the £52m limit?
  21. Suggest we look at history here... And list all the really big money signings in the January window that made a significant impact on their teams performance in the succeeding few months... I can't think of many... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. In the harsh reality of the morning after.... Although this is great PR for the fans... It's even better PR to potential new kids looking for a top club, it's a self perpetuating myth... Slowly becoming legend...Really good stuff... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. I woud have thought they might wait until what next season looks like.. if we get into Europe.. then we need both Bertrand and Targett...and guess TA will be keen to stay and play for us as well...
  24. big 45 minutes coming up...get a win here.. build confidence for the visit of QPR.. or drop back into the pack...
  25. thought he was solid today and showed alot of quality.. if you want to be really picky... he went up for a corner in second half and was very slow to get back... whilst at same time Fonte busted a gut to get back... but that's being pretty picky... and it's his first premier league game...
