Bruno Martins Indi - 6th June

I think it's perfectly legit of Hughes to have assurances of what he can spend and reshape the squad how he sees fit, I love the fact he doesn't seem to be a man who will get told what to do with regards to the squad and has a bit of steel about him. I'm sure when he signs it'll be because he is happy that he has a semblance of control and that's fine by me. I reckon he will sign before the end of the week when Les relinquishes some control and then we can enjoy the world cup... Hmmmm.

Saints have said in the past that people at the club are just one part of a machine that should be replaceable and the machine continues to work. Or some bullshlt like that. The same should apply to Les, he shouldn't be allowed to make himself indispensable.

Im sure there are people out there that are/have been in the football industry and know what to do with regards to being a DoF at Saints. He has overseen a great rise to the premier league but he has plateaued now and holds too much power on the face of it and too many big mistakes are happening. He has to go and we need a DoF with different ideas.

Thanks for that, saved me listening as watching Evil Genius. That reads ok to me, they are not happy with the season, realised that mistakes were made and hopefully trying to rectify them, first off by tying Hughes down for a bit longer.

Stoke score again

People can stop panicking now.

Stoke score

Brilliant that Bravo is playing, we will score at least 2.

Not really, I think he's talking about the season as if it's finished snd what Hughes has done to get them over the line. I wouldn't read too much into it.

10 mins to go. The stats are mental, can see a last minute Chelsea goal.

Lets hold on this time.

3-1 for swans or draw. I'm on that

COME ON

I've seen this mentioned a few times but what is more important to thw players? Getting a record points score or being fit for the world cup and injury free? The points haul only matters to fans, the players won't get any bonuses for it. Also with regards to the odds, Saints favourites for this game and Swansea favourites to stay up, some clever gambling could see a profit being made here.

We'll draw tomorrow, everyone will think it's game over but we'll beat a world cup thinking city on the last day and stay up.

I actually think we'll get something from city. We'll get into them and rough them up, no one playing for city will want to play a team fighting for their life with the world cup around the corner.

The bad thing about not winning yesterday was dragging huddersfield right in it and meaning we could still stay up if we lost both remaining games, although unlikely. Like others have said, we now have to keep fighting and there will be no complacency. I also feel the city players will want to be careful in the last game so not to pick up injuries for the world cup, we can get a win against them if need be. Be nice not to have that over us though.

Blimey 16-1 for everton to win.

Brilliant cross and decent header through the keepers legs. Is it full time yet?

Ball was a mile out.

Decent possession but wasteful up top at the mo. Definitely there for the taking.

Palace score.

Tadic scoring two good goals definitely puts him up there but McCarthy made sure we kept the 3 points. Especially that amazing save at the end. He was my motm

Draw wouldn't be bad IF we can get a win at Swansea. A win at goodison will take us above 1 or 2 teams I reckon.
