Convict Colony

Question for our victorious championship push next season when is the opportune time to sell players to facilitate us spending a lot to acheive that? and still give us room to spend more when we go up again (massive assumption) i.e sell Dibbling etc in Jan ? or in that mad pre-arranged deals clubs did last year before June (think brighton/newcastle/villa) so we book it this accounting year or after in the normal transfer window but the next accounting window ? Given its 3 years so will be PL/Champ/PL losses taken into consideration. Thanks accounting boffins.

A lack of premier league goals

nothing but respect for Che, gave his all last season and now bullying serie a defenders happy for him

Whoever's angry agent this is come and get him.

I think he injured himself from picking the ball out of his net 6 times.

I'm not surprised Vancouver housing is insanely expensive.

"Solak expressed optimism about the club despite its struggles this season. He emphasized support for manager Ivan Juric, acknowledging that Juric is trying to implement a new style of play which the current squad was not initially assembled for. He noted Juric's dedication and lack of complaints, indicating that the club will try to assist him in his efforts." Fairplay to Juric and even if he does leave for a job back in Italy its would still dovetail nicely that any players we get to suit his style would also suit Rohls.

The catalyst for this spiral from us by SR stemmed from the 22 summer they decided to keep Ralph and didnt get him the striker we all know we needed. Every decision after that has just compounded the problems into this shit show we currently are.

hahahhahaa glad you got the win mate, lets hope this carrys on for a bit longer.

So Tall Paul, Jan, Bree and Fernandes the best players. Also one for @Matthew Le God has McCarthy ever saved a penalty for us in the premier league ?

Based on this chat the only positive i can take is that we didnt give them a gift of a goal and they had to score them themselves.

Just posting to make sure it's not just MLG who can post.

Can someone check Fred is ok 🤣🤣

This now means I have to go out drinking every Friday Valenciennes play. Challenge accepted 😄

Hoping for a win but will just take a great perfomance for 90mins but the optimist in me says......... 2-0 saints

Newcastle converted Joelinton from 30m forward to midfielder, given our strikers dont score either which one would be good for midfield ?

Was just checking if Atalanta had any spare DMs we might able to loan and I see even their starting DM Marten De Roon has 3 goals in serie A this year. We need to adopt this style ASAP where DMs can actually score goals, our top scorers anywhere on the pitch have 2 !!!!

Merci Christophe I cant watch tonight unfortunately as I have an appointment with a lot of beer. Bon chance.

never hurt jack grealish

I am gonna guess he will go to Atalanta. Let me revist this in the summer but Juric will probably recommend him to his pal Gasperini, they will play him and they have history to develop players, play the same formation have lots of eng speakers there (lookman etc).

Honestly if we were in the premier league next season i would definitely think dibbling would stay, purely for the playing time and knowing the club etc, give him time to develop in a "safe space". So its our own fault he will leave, good luck to the lad.

Well we have set the expecation.

Scouting report from his last season in Bodo. https://franciscomaldonado.substack.com/p/albert-grnbk-scout-report "Gronbaek has the tools to become an elite-level creator in European football." I like I like a lot.

With the midfield thing I'd assumed as we are playing wingbacks if KWP presses high covering the ball I'd guess suga would come inside to make the midfield 3 and if it switches the roles would reverse. Not sure if it happens every time, maybe more playing time will help.

As a long term saints fan I assumed humiliation was the standard and actually being good was the exception.
