We sitting too deep now. Nervous. Too much like the Stoke game.

Really need another goal. Message to NA...... DO NOT try and tighten up and see out this game. We need to keep at them to the end.

Can see why Villa are struggling - they have even less leadership and defensive organisation than us. Did play a few nice triangles in the last few minutes of the half though. We're pretty direct, but seem to be playing below par. Seems like there is another gear for us to kick into. Need to keep exploiting the wide areas, that's where we're getting best results. Clear dive for the penalty.

"Nigel, Nigel, show us your knees, show us your knees......" etc.

Ad am doing the side-step running thingy? Guess his knee is not as bad as feared then....

Need the Don to do a cracking sales job, and Gaston to phone him and and tell him (again) about the English vag. Sell the dream boys, sell the dream.....

Hope not. We need to avoid ****ing around too much. I'd rather have Jos, with Cork in midfield. That'll help us massively in ball retention, and protecting the back 4. Jos played okay the other week anyway when we have Yoshi at RB.

Wonder if the original paper-link was being spun by the agent to increase any offers from us. Think this will be another one that drags on.

This for me. That midfield is our strongest; we need Guly slinging in the crosses, Lambert bullying their weak defence and Ramirez/Puncheon exploiting the panic. Have to get at them straight from the off, and show self belief. TEAR IT!

Based purely on the Wiki page, this guy looks decent (yes....I know). But 20 years old; 6 foot 4; impressed for Juve; Scandinavian. Could be good. Happy if we are pillaging Italy. If we can get quality players cheap then why not. As a rule players in Italy are more technically gifted than their English counterparts. Makes sense to me.

We're going to rip them a new one. I feel it in my 'roids.

You need to wiggle your arse more as you walk. "He was asking for it; the slag."

There are some sickos in the world.

Exactly this. We wouldn't be spending if we could afford it. Cortese is no fool; he may be taking calculated risks, but he is no fool. Far rather we bought young, expensive players with resale value than old heads without.

Doubt we'd get rid of him, but I do believe he will evolve into our 'off-the-bench plan B' (not the singer!) Players like Ramirez and this fella clearly benefit from, and reward, more movement in front of them. J-Rod will be that guy.

Good deal if true. Like the guy, but I truly believe he isn't prem quality.

Wow. Surely not? Love that we're linked with these type of players, but really can't see it.

I think he could really thrive in a team with Ramirez; can't see it happening though sadly.

Lee on. Go on son. Win a starting place!

Hehehehe. Summariser just said that "The lob's on". Giggerty.

Yep. Who is the 'expert summariser'? He's a cock.

Yep. Thought that as soon as it was scored. J-Rod does give us that something different, and will grow into a class no. 9 for us in a couple of seasons.

Great goal. Class. J-Rod accelleration when facing the goal - and a smooth finish. Very tasty.

Quite like the line up - stronger than I would have thought. Please to see Lee involved - hope he gets on. Surprised Mayuka is in there - but not starting. 2-1 Saints.

Good work! I understand he wants to discuss the move with a former player of ours......Czech fella: can't recall his name at the mo......
