Davis potentially being sold came straight from Jan's mouth during the BBC forum.

......top of the league

wait untill the real competitive pressures before writing them off as "lightweight"

Saints are used to having a slick pitch. Hence why we used sprinklers before the Stoke game to aid our quick passing game. Always look for a positive

well if they are claiming he signed from us then they are wrong as he was released by saints during the summer and no longer a saints player

he was on trial at Swindon about a week ago after he was released by us. so it seems odd he is at newcastle if this is true

Davis/Bialkowski/Forecast James/Hatch Thomas/Perry/Svensson/Davies Surman/Mills Gillett/Wotton/Schneiderlin Thomson/BWP Lallana Holmes/Dyer John/McGoldrick Not too bad imo. Also many other young players in reserve such as Racine, Gobern, White, Pernecky, Paterson etc etc. Certainly better than the no pace no movement squad of last season!

Saint Matty_76 Joseph Mills is exactly huge by any means He won't be in the match 16 anyway, him and Jamie White just in the 18 for experience

In the 4 friendlies I saw the front four all interchanged position throughout the game, swapping sides etc. Confusses the hell out of the opposition and is true total football

Why did he play in the second half against Stoke?

This is the squad listed on the OS! Stern John is suspended due to being sent off last season so I doubt he will be on the bench.

The 18 player squad has been announced on the OS for the game. No sign of Rasiak, Skacel, Euell as expected really. Squad Wright-Phillips Thomas Davis Bialkowski James Surman Perry White Lallana Schneiderlin Holmes McGoldrick Dyer Wotton Mills Svensson Thomson Gillett My expected line up Davis James Perry Svensson Surman Schneiderlin Gillett Thomson Lallana Holmes McGoldrick Subs; Bialkowski Wright-Phillips Dyer Thomas Wotton Come on you Reds!

thats just as bad because it is spelt Schneiderlin

they didn't force you to buy it did they?

i wouldn't trust Chorley with anything let alone my member(ship) saints trust = a tiny minority % of fans who think they represent us all, and talk and act like they do

thats basically what he implied

about Saga, Rasiak and Skacel maybe. but it looked like Davis was going to keep the keeper shirt at least in the short to medium term. not anymore, however i do expect him to start aslong as he is still here i.e. cardiff until he is sold before end of month

thats what i said? along with poor motivation

I got the impression Stern John will stay and battle it out with McGoldrick for the striker role. With Raziak and Saga sold.

...possibly. Down to their large wages and lack of motivation. On the eve of the new season Jan has said that Kelvin may be sold along with Rasiak, Saga and Skacel if an offer comes in before end of window. He also talked Bart up as a replacement if Kelvin does go with Forecast as a reserve behind Bart. Thoughts?

i imagine some fans are going to make themselves look stupid as usually happens at these forums with stupid ill informed questions

you mean the man that won the Champions League and UEFA Cup in the two years before? Also Benitez winning the league in Spain with Valencia?

what you say is more laughable Richard Wright, Chris Lucketti and Adam Hammill were all loans so why on earth would they count as outs? Also Michael Svensson has not officially signed a contract yet so isn't an IN

do you see my point though?

how is it relevant how we did on the opening day of the season in 2007, 2006, 2005...1991,1990,1989? the team is new(many of them not alive 20 years ago), the management is new etc etc why do these records matter to some forum users and the media?
