I would rather say Nikolay Kortesov!

I watch Russian league week in week out. He is not up for the PL level, mate. He is average. maybe good for Championship level, not for the PL.

He just came back from an injury. Not in the best form, thats why not starting in starting 11

Astori would be great. but what do u think bout Lescott aquisition for reported 8 millions???

Now we need to sign 2 CBs urgently and a keeper next. Great candidate for nr 1 goalie would be Mickaël Landreau who has terminated his contract with Lille and is a free agent now. Gazza is not up to it yet, I must admit. Boruc is unfit and Davies is class below. If we miss on Friedel as AVB is stating then Landreau is a great option for years to come. yes, he is 33, but for the goalie its just the beginning of the blossoming career. worth a try. France NT player btw.

High wage damds. Plus QPR would not accept to loan their player to main rival for avoiding relegation.

Yet again this story. damn, we need defenders!!!!!!!! heeeeeeeellllllllllloooooooooooo.

He is a legend already, because he is just 7 goals short of becoming a TOP-10 league goalscorer in Southampton history of all time!!!

There was a game vs Sweden yesterday, which I have not seen. Question about Safari, their LB and our former Anders Svensson. your thoughts, any good (more coresponding to Safari)

I was asking whether they r - Icegrouv or Eesgrove and Seeger or Seejer???

Question about Isgrove and Seager - how their surnames should be pronounced?

I fear their salary demands might be too high for us. In addition to that it is difficult to make business with Dynamo, because they want to sell their star players for a huge sums and even if the player is down the pecking order, they still putting some financial hurdles not to lose players. I know u love Dynamo, but as per their business making they r tough to comunicate with, based on the prevoius transfer out sagas of last 3-4 years. Nevertheless, all 3 players r really good quality. The only problem is their desire to play elsewhere, to make their name internationally recognisable week in week out. Dunno bout their desire to change countries and learn new languages (that is the big big problem with majority of former USSR players, for example, Pavlyuchenko is the best example for that)

But generally speaking, as it is obvious we need 2 quality cbs, better than yosh, fonte or jos at least twice better. In adition to that - defending-minded LB and strong DCM to give Morgan and Cork a competition.

Was watching Behrang Safari from Anderlecht the other night against Zenit in Champions League. Both games (home and away) he was excellent while playing LB. great positioning, tackling, force, pace. In addition to that Anderlechts OS states he can play LM and LB. our Benelux scouts should monitor this Swedish International.

Happy for Anders. really nice guy when met him in Riga! Hope he manages to play some 2-3 seasons more.

Riga

hope we offload this ****bag asap.

had a bad prediction. as always.

Today made 2 bets in local betting shop! For the first time in 6 years. 1 - for Saints winning this game. 2 - for West brom winning at HT and Saints winning at FT. Hopefully both bets will win. It has to.

Few years ago we had such a club called Olimps Riga, who also played in Latvian Elite Division Virsliga with majority of youngsters and some 3-4 older players. cannot compare the levels of both teams because never seen BrommaBoys on TV. But unfortunately this season the club was dissolved.

any working streams to listen to the game??? apart from saintsplayer?

There are some presenters conversation with no game yet on!!! doubt will get any

No official news or updates on Gazzaniga loan out yet!!! So, it means its only rumours at the mo.

I doubt Gazza was commanding the penalty area. He is good on jumping, good on a line and with reflexes, great distribution, but he is lacking communication with his defence. he does not communicate enough with the cbs, he MUST to do. Pole is doing that. and he is more experienced in all the aspects of a commanding in the area. Just need to get match fitness. Hope he does it sooner rather than later.

Stop it! Get behind the best keeper at the club. he has the great ability and technique other keepers do not have at Saints. he needs to settle in, to get sharp enough, to familirise the place and the environment. He might become the next Antti Niemi if we get behind him. Apart from that with such a goalie, Gazzaniga will become sensational keeper as well.
