Possible. But I do get the feeling we now know exactly what/who we want, and will make early generous. 'Its £xxx with a decision in 3 days,or poke it'.
We went early with a generous offer in the summer for j-Rod.
Great entertainment, and can't really complain about a point there.
But......dodgy substitutions when we were a goal and a man up. **** poor ball retention - we're a prem team playing against 10 men FFS! And no leadership on the pitch.
Did play some good stuff at times though.
Well I for one wrote that team selection off before they kicked a ball. Shows what I know!
Playing well, look fairly solid at the back and creating some chances.
Just don't try to see out all of the second half!!
Glad J-Rod gets a start, but will not be happy if he is on the left.
Seems mental to leave out Ramirez when J-Rod is there to offer more mobility in front of him.
Think NA is trying to be too clever.
Can't see Ramirez ever being truely effective for us if he only has SRL ahead of him. He needs quicker acceleration/more movement to show what he can do.
J-Rod on for SRL at half time please.
I do wonder if the way forward for us is a partnership of J-Rod & Mayuka, with SRL as the impact sub.
And yes, Mayuka was poor yesterday, but he hasn't really had a lot of game time.
Too soon to sell SRL though.
Been drinking the past few nights - and tonight I expect - in Downunder Bar in Chiang Mai. Run by an Aussie who is a Saints fan.
Not seen any Saints gear there, and haven't got a shirt with me to donate.
**** me, have I started a thread on the main board?
Great result; great performance.
Cork was excellent; Gaston quality - and will get better.
Lallana better.
Shaw - great prospect.
Bit worried about G-Niga.
COYRS!
Pub now.
