Ward-Prowse is going to one hell of a player if he continues like this. His set pieces are just amazing. Thought it was a poor game by are standards with many players being avarage today.

I am finding this game frustrating. Sadly cant see us scoring, its one of those days..

10m Would love to see someone from Manure walk up to Cortese say they want Shaw for 10m. Honestly, is it a coincidence that none of our players have left this summer/winter? Could it be that Cortese isnt the easiest to deal with.

I'll believe it once its on the OS/BBC/Alex cook has tweeted it, till then its just a rumour:)

Well looking forward to this. As its the first game of the season and being Saints I will be pleased with a draw. My guess, 2-2 Rodriquez and Puncheon. COYR

Ricckieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Rickie coming on!

I honestly cannot remember the last time I saw an England game, but will be watching tomorrow.

This goal just edges the goal against City (as its against the Skates), love the celebrations and the commentary, just as with City goal.

Where did Peter Kennaugh come from? The work he did up front today was amazing, as were his downhill skills. If he keeps up this work he could become a contender for the yellow jersey in a few years.

Definitely looked lean on the pictures the club posted yesterday http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/article/gallery-pre-season-fitness-tests-890708.aspx. SRL looks to have lost some weight too.

Squandering money and acting like idiots abroad. But also good at manufacturing, designing and producing music.

Yeah we shouldn't buy any players from the SPL whilst we are in the PL, look at Steve Davis, he's absolute rubbish:rolleyes:

Agree 100% with this post. Ideally I would like to see a team of between 6-8 English players, with at least half of them graduates from our acadamy.

Danny Simpson from Newcastle is out of contract, would he be a decent back up for Clyne?

So because 1 guy has idiotic views, does that make all UKIP backers idiots?

Mata or Ivanovich would be good signings, wouldnt mind Lukaku either.

WBA 5-5 Manure

What a boring game. MP should bring on Pucheon to add some bite in midfield. Would also like to see Chambers or Isgrove come on, see what they can do. Wonder if any of the players on the pitch is playing their last game for us.

Its not Nuytinck, its his Cheikhou Kouyate we are supposed to be interested in (my mistake, didn,t read the article properly) http://www.talksport.co.uk/sports-news/football/premier-league/transfer-rumours/130515/newcastle-and-southampton-keen-anderlecht-star-197615 @Barry Sanchez, The Dutch league is certainly a good league for us to scout players in, the Dutch football academies are good and players get good training from a young age. The players to look out for are Wilfred Bony (Vitesse), Viktor Fisher (Ajax), Feyenoord defenders Bruno Martins-Indie and Stefan de Vrij, Virgil van Dijk (FC Groningen) and Kevin Strootman (PSV).

According to a Dutch football website we are interested in Anderlecht CB Bram Nuytinck (yes the same guy we were interested in last summer, then playing for NEC Nijmegen)

Do we have someone who is itk or who has heard what is going on? I have lost track about what is happening at the club, just when it seemed all was running smoothly. What I find strange is that its being fought out in the media and that the players and manager are getting involved, whilst previously all was kept in house.

NO! They should, if possible, be deported after they have served their prison sentence. If you go and live in another country you should respect the rules of that country. If you dont agree with the rules of a country, dont go and live there.

4/10 Mind you I was educated in another language. Would like to do a course to improve my grammar during the summer, if work allows me to.

They seem tired, possibly overtrained. If they play,whilst being overtrained, they have a bigger chance of getting injured (especially Shaw as he is only 17). MP also stated that Lambert hasnt trained properly for some weeks and Shaw and Schneiderlin have had injuries recently. I am aware that the higher we finish the more money we get, but I would rather we finished 15th, then finishing 12th with vital players being injured and missing parts of the pre season.
