I would like us to sign players with pace and height, dont have any names to mind, but i think to fit our new style we need better athletes. The Strachen-era proved you dont need to be technically the best if you want to compete at the highest level, you need to be physically stronger and fitter than the opponents. Man Utd are fine example of this, not the best individual skilled players but absolute athletes.

If we really have a desire to stay in the prem this is a must win game, anything less than a win, is not good enough. villa are a poor side in poor form, and if we cant beat them it will be a massive confidence dent for the boys! i do believe we will go there and get the job done, but i think it will be close im going a tense 3-2, punch and ramirez x2 with the goals!

Guly at the level he was signed whilst we were in League 1 was a fantastic player, in the Championship he brought a lot to the team and contributed well, this season although he has yet to score has also contributed well to the side, so to slate NC on signing Guly is nothing short of stupid. We were never going get 'world beaters' whilst playing at that level!

I struggle to understand why we are not picking Boruc, i have thought this since we dropped him. I rate Gazza but he is too young and prone to the odd howler. Its no good playing well one game then making mistakes the next. His mistake against swansea cost us the win, he was lucky enough to only conceed 1 vs QPR when he was shocking, and he cost us the win last night. No doubt he will come good but this is not the time to be messing around. We need the experience from Boruc for Liverpool.

Managers as with players come and go from every club, some sadly, some needing to go. The only one thing that stays constant is the club. I will always follow and get behind every team we play, and every manager we have. Dont be fickle enough to say if someone goes/comes in i will never go to a game again. If you do that you are not a true supporter of 'Southampton Football Club', you are like many others up and down the land are 'plastics' who only go when the going is good and suits them. Get behind the club. COYR

How on earth has rob 'calamity' green got in the squad ahead of kelvin, and carroll ahead of rickie, absolute joke. Im not a fan of international football but would of been great for kelvin and rickie to of been called up, not being one eyed but i think they would of added more to the squad than those two. Coyr

Stephen Ward is utter turd, alot worse than what we already have. We can and will sign better than this.

my list of freebies, maybe kalou is a bit optimistic, but the offer of game time might be a big thing. Craig Gordon, Fitz Hall, Danny Murphy, Salomon Kalou, Junior Hoilett.

i placed a bet when punch came back that he would score our promotion winning goal. now with chappers out he may get a shout. personally i would love either rickie or adam to do it, but i would take anything, an own goal, a deflection off a pigeon anything. its one of the biggest 90+ mins in saints history and we must roar them on to victory, as with our support to calm the players nerves so they can go out and perform to their best, we can and will do this. in the words of nigel 'together as one'

i cant work out what but guly looks skightly different here! Any ideas? Haircut possibly?

I had Delgado home and Chala on away when we signed them both! Ouch!!!!

my knowledge of carlos vela can not be correct as it cant of been him as he played last night in spain, sorry guys i think its all the jan transfer madness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
