  1. We've dominated the game and are getting beat by an average side, should we be happy about that? Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  2. This will be a disaster if we don't get at least a point. Just gotta keep going and the goal should come Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  3. Couple of changes now please, job done. Need strong team for thursday, we can ignore city away Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  4. Yeah Mcgoldrick and Wotton, both inside the first 15 mins I think. Watford won 3-0 in the end, unbelievable to think how **** we were then Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  5. 2019 if someone is desperate???? Lol Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  6. Except in reality, we will name our price and someone will match it. I fully believe by the end of this season VVD will have been the best cb in the league and there will be plenty of interest in him. Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  7. This will be tougher than expected, a point would be a very good result. I'd keep the same back four, maybe bring in Mccarthy, Hesketh and Long. We should be prioritising this game over the Leicester game. If we lose at Leicester, it won't be a disaster; we aren't going to finish top 7 and we aren't going to get relegated. A result in Israel is crucial to our qualification hopes. Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

    Puel

    Looking as good as last season. Just because Puel isn't much of a character and a bit of an unknown to some, he was written off by many. As long as he knows how to manage a football team that's fine by me. The team are starting to adapt to his tactics, and so far I think he has managed the squad rotation really well. Early days, but we will be ok this season. I think it's inevitable we will be lower in the league; the Europa should be the priority. This can still be a great season for us.

  9. This will be an embarassment if we don't win this. Our failure to score is very worrying Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

  11. How is that not a pen? As clear cut as you will see all season. Carrying on the theme of the weekend - ****e refereeing Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  12. Fancy us to win this, going for another 3-0. Austin to start alongside Long again. Fonte, Bertrand and Davis in for Targett, Yoshida and JWP. Then throw in the kids and Yoshida against Palace. With the Europa, I'm really not bothered about the league cup for the first time. Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  13. Quite painful seeing Liverpool playing well. If they'd bought an extra defender or two in the summer they might have had a chance of the title. With no European competition I think they're certainties for a top 4 finish Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  14. A lot of games coming up now. I've lost a bit of interest but mainly due to our poor form and a disappointing transfer window. I said at the start we should ignore the league and focus on the cups. I don't think we will get relegated, but can easily see us finishing as low as 15th. A decent run in the Europa and another of the domestic cups can still make this a great season. Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  15. No, he's pretty limited apart from his dead ball delivery. Only good enough for Championship. You hear the cries 'he's only 21' but he has shown no signs of improvement in the last few seasons. Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  16. Will be a comfortable win for Arsenal. I think we will start getting back on track after this. The games will be coming thick and fast though, 6 in 20 days. Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  17. I was ridiculed on here just a couple of months ago for suggesting he will be worth £40 million when he is sold next summer. In the current market, he's easily worth that Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  18. Poor. We just look a bit lightweight. I can accept there are many midfield destroyer type players like Wanyama about, but we are weaker without him. I was never a massive fan of Pelle, but thought we might bring in a similar type player. Maybe Austin, just needs a good run of games; he seems to have been largely written off by most on here. The squad to me looks weaker than last year and it's hard to argue against that assessment. I was hoping we might shift on Yoshida and JWP but it looks like they might be here a while. What's most disappointing is we made our sales early, then only brought in Hojberg and Redmond and the two back up signings. Boufal looks exciting, but it seems to me Les put his eggs in one basket and spent a lot of time trying to get it over the line, and perhaps missing out on other targets. I guess it's just been a bit underwhelming. I know we are trying to be a sustainable business, and accept we are never going to make the Bony/Benteke sort of signings. But winning the net spend table wins you no trophies or points. Les just needs to quit the CL and ambition talks, because we haven't shown any signs of wanting to improve on next season.

  19. Have Everton actually signed Brahimi today? Or anyone for that matter? Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  20. #SaintSaido;-) Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  21. Think there might be one more, being Saponara. Would actually take Wilshere and Berahino too. Not hopeful, but we've pulled off a couple of good deadline day deals in recent seasons. Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

    Yes, we are second favourites to win the group, but they will all be very tough games. Getting out of the group will be a good achievement. Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  23. Didn't we escape with a last minute draw in this fixture last season? Looks like a certain relegation battle this season unless we see some major developments betweennow and wednesday night Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  24. We worked hard to finish where we did. In my 25 years of following Saints we've had the one tie against Steaua and then last season's disaster against Midgetland. I am massively excited about the Europa league, the Prem can take a backseat this year if we take the EL seriously. What's the point in finishing 7th and then not going for it? May as well finish 17th with that attitude.The kids can be used in the League Cup. Really looking forward to the draw, looks to be some stronger sides than usual in it to me, but maybe I'm just nervous about the draw. Either way, we are more than capable of beating every side in it. Wonder if we might get a signing announcement to tie in with the draw today? Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
  25. It's not an excuse, it's the way it is. The top clubs only buy the ready made players. We do not have the power or financial clout to sign £30 million players. And in fairness, we have a good track record of signing players of quality in a lower price bracket. We just unfortunately sell them. You do not see Stoke, west ham, palace etc developing players like we do, so we've done a good job in that respect. Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
