Well i looked at the starting line up and thought and feared for the worse.Wow what an outstanding effort he made. He didnt have too much chance with their goal unfortunatly but in that game kept us in it at least 4 great saves and 1 outstanding save to keep us right in it until **** me Long screws it up at the last few seconds ,well played Paulo you deserve another run infront of Stek imo.

it will be Liverpool away.

I hope not otherwise England wouldnt have improved any.....................really come of it all the pundits i listen to on match day all comment about set piece delivery...............wow news flash thats why they train, he has to be able to be more than on the field just in case we get a set piece?.............england captain nah more better deserving than him.

why the **** dint tadic belt the ball when clean through to make it 2-2...!!!!!

thats because the three we have that you mentioned are not good enough..................simple........Next.

I expect the club has a budget and sticks to that budget, maybe the owners don't want to just magic up £3-£5 million plus wages to hire someone just for back up who may never play. So why did we pay **** loads for Shane Long?

did they play with tactics then?

I wasnt writing off VVD just wondering what all the hype was about, and yes 2 games in is very harsh to say what i started with,but..........

I think some of the replies to this thread seem to be juding as to whether or not 2 games in is too difficult to judge how VVD(who everyone or at least alot on this forum were saying get him on the bus),ok 2 games might seen a tad harsh but how would this forum be if we would have just signed Martial and hes done what hes done so far at Man Utd?.........somewhat differently id have thought.

Dont see what all the fuss was about getting him signed as quick as possible.Scotish football is very weak as we all know and against stronger opposition he was found wanting ,luckily didnt see red for the foul on Martial,caught out of possition for that one but from what ive seen nah but time might tell, he may well have a cracking season only to be sold at a later stage prob next season ,along with Wanyama and Mane so what do i know...!

on that display theres no leadership nor passion about us this year,relegation battle Leicester are the new Southampton this season.

you say in your quote its not his fault hes in our team,someone has to pick him,WHY.....really hes in the squad not a first team pick imo, christ all you hear the commentators say is hes got a great dead ball delivery...again really? how many assists did he contribute with from this astonishing ability to kick a ball (afterall thats what he gets very well paid for)

Now we know what the migrants feel like trying to stay in Europe.....difficult.

Totally agree with you money for players is ok if you can replace them with very similar players or better were probably going to get stuck with Dross Townsend and money for Wanyama wow great smashing theres a reason for that Spurs dont want him but hey well have him brilliant super hes rubbish.

Spot on we've been on a downward progression since mid December of last season all be it with one or two surprising results and other fixtures going our way that we were able to push for a Europa league finish.Honestly glad to be out before it really started due to inept team performances thus far.Whats missing for me is someone who can knit the pace of the team together and give us some momentum.Everyone says on here Classie is the man to do this ,and yet hes picked up an injury so were not in a position to judge where or not hes such the player we hope hes going to be,wow he was in Hollands world cup team, so was Whiltshire in Englands team did well there also didn't we...!!there's a point when all the business has concluded and it hasn't yet i would be surprised if we can keep Vic and Sadio who incidentally was slagged off rotten on this forum for not being good enough...! now it seems hes the one most likely to create a chance for us.Anyway i digress our squad is getting weaker by every departure and with just a few days remaining of this window have we got enough about us to fight against a reegation battle because we sure need a win already against Norwich this sunday and i dint have us down for our first win until Sunderland at home thats how uninspiring i see our squad.Hope im wrong time will tell .....

What the hell could he possibly add to the team,hes no team player just as Long isnt a striker for us ......... what another waste of money it would be .

yup i thought all his tackles were good especially against Watford but soon as a player over-reacts and rolls it seems to sway the ref in dishing out a card.

it would only be legendary until next season when another wanna bigger pay packet goes

saw the obligatory video on him and he seems very accomplished and assured on the ball should fit in well i hope.

just take a deep breath.

i have to say totally agree with you RK wanted him to take the penalty against Hull last season just to build confidence at scoring will he kick on who knows hindsight is a wonderful thing but he seems to nice a person to want to step up and take over from senior players maybe this will be his season im sure we all hope so but who knows just seen MOTD 2Extra and lawro just slatted WHUs choice of playing with a 16 yr old lawro eh
