Barry the Badger

Very disappointed that whilst he said he'd seen us play, he stopped short of admitting he spent all of last season wishing he was at Saints. Shows a lack of commitment in my opinion.

He looks almost as good as Steve De Ridder in that video. Can't believe it's taken us so long to replace him. Duuuuuuussssaaaaaaannnnn.

At least he left out the shorts. http://www.trophiesandmedals.com/@@content/pub/image_9961/Yellow%20New%20Skin%20Football%20Shorts_157247.jpg

I'm expecting them to play him as part of the central 3, rotating with Coutinho

Diaz, yes.

We just don't have a single world class player unfortunately. We played ok for periods of all the games but don't have a Neymar/Messi to make the difference in a tight game for us. If only Bale was English.

Why would anyone NOT hope for a renaissance?

Surely Lambert must have a knock. Seems harsh otherwise.

"I really don't give a **** about the architects drawings, I'm supposed to be on holiday."

On what basis? Might be a terrible coach for all you know.

I nearly wrote that then decided it's the bloody least I'd expect him to be doing for his 30k a week!

It really wont. If he announced he was staying and started the season well, all would be fine.

If we'd had schneiderlin instead of Gerrard/Rooney they'd have had nowhere near that much joy down the wings. Having watched three excellent holding midfield players all season it's clear that the two Liverpool players offer nothing like the same protection.

I didn't think so st all we were losing the battle in midfield and not creating enough at that point, Wilshere is definitely more capable of threading a through ball than Henderson.

He made it hard for the ref by falling on top of the ball. When that happens it's easier for them to just give the free kick than have to deal with a player trying to kick the ball out from underneath another.

I saw a programme last night that said Matthew Le Tissier played for Southampton, apparently.

Meat hung Lallana, WTF. Lol. Watching

I love meat hung Lallana but he's not in Ozil's class!

You're suggesting we out the top English premier league goal scorer on the left wing? No thanks.

Of course he should sign the shirt you morons.

Wow, sensitive much? I've heard him mention us a few times actually, and he wrote a letter specifically for Saints. I'm sure you would be delighted if we signed somebody and they kept banging on about their previous club.

This. The board should absolutely neglect all other parts of the business for the entire summer just in case anybody thinks they aren't trying to make sure we have a team.

That reporter is a ****ing ****

You're right it's decent money. But if we are going to sell our ****ing talisman just before he represents England in the world cup, just after he's finished joint 6th in the combined goals & assists stats, I want a bit more than "decent money".
