Haven't you seen the clips where he was playing pranks on Klopp? Which is why Klopp got sick of him in the end, that and he was turning up late for things.

Snap him up. Bloke seems a loon but is a decent player

What are people honestly expecting reed to say about this?

Not when the manager is as inept as Branfoot. Which Puel obviously isn't. Did le tiss cause problems then or just get on with his job?

No, you can't get rid of manager the players don't like, he's meant to be in charge, I personally would flog the players that a causing the upset. Or at least the main one disrespecting the manager. Players have too much power these days and rarely think about the club they play for Just their pocket. Shall we just get the players to appoint our next manager?

Quite, after he changed his agent I thought there was only one reason for doing so.

But why should he get a new contract 6 months after he signed one? He was offered more money and an additional year which I think is absolutely fair regardless if it's additional to his current contract or a new one.

It's not to please another club but to ensure we get maximum money for him and if he was excluded completely for every game there would be more questions asked than being on the bench.

He's a good centre back but I think he's past his best now, been a fault for a few goals this season when he has played. He is no where near the level of VvD, and if we can pull off another gem like that then we'll be ok.

Why can't he be easily replaced? I'm sure we have a load of defenders being eyed up for this possibility, especially as he wanted out as soon as he came back from the Euros. Or do you mean his morale boosts in the changing room, that's doing well by the sounds of it.

Yeah we obviously have to put some towards it, be nice to spend a decent amount which I think we will.

If we get about £6m for fonte then that will be invested in a young up and coming international that will want to be here. Fonte is not irreplacable, actually very easily replaceable.

Billy big boll0x, VvD is the future, let fonte go for a decent amount and replace him with younger blood. Oh and OP the official Twitter have not come out and said anything, it's the bbc.

I remember watching him thinking he is not good enough for Sunday league, one of the worse players I've seen in a Saints shirt, and there have been a few bad ones. I really wanted Tadinari Lee to come good, I remember watching him live at Watford when Rickie got his Hat-trick thinking he would be excellent.

Which is what I said earlier.

I'm very much in the Puel to remain camp until then end of the season to see where we finish. Knee jerk reactions don't help anyone and it is easy to do that after 3 defeats, but I was told from someone who was at the Saints Christmas dinner after the win against Bournemouth that when puel was making a speech, bertrand, fonte and Redmond were laughing and taking the p1ss out of him. He doesn't seem to gain the respect of the players. Maybe he should take on board what the players have to say and see if it makes any difference. A couple of wins and a cup win against Liverpool and moods will change.

is this going to happen though? 3 prem quality players this window?

that's the one. Sorry I've not been sober since Christmas eve.

Is Marshall fit? He's a decent keeper and can't be worse than Forster was last night. I would drop Boufal for tadic and bring in long for Redmond.

Yep, sending off and free kick, Not sure how he came to the conclusion of a penalty.

We were pretty good for 20 minutes but it was so frustrating Sat There watching us sit so deep and letting them do what they want, it was like we didn't have the confidence to stand toe to toe with them. Why forster doesn't come off his line is baffling, you can see the defenders shepherding the ball to him then frustratingly boot it away because Forster doesn't come. Not sure why ward prowse is getting stick, played ok and his balls into the box were excellent today, boufal on the other hand was awful, so lazy and really didn't look like he wanted to be on the pitch, maybe a game where we have more possession would suit him. Spurs are a good side but get a win and a draw from next two and that won't be too bad.

Brilliant. Loving vvd in man city top.

Percentage wise. We traveled our money on Mane in 2 seasons, you think that's bad business?

Pards 100% better than Puel.

Deserves to be at West brim after his tantrum to get out. Shows the grass isn't always greener and trying to engineer a nice out of a well run club like ours could backfire.
