Boufal ****ed his ankle. Didn't look good.

Received mine last week.

We beat Arsenal away in the League Cup with a mix of first team and some youth. #shortmemory

Play full strength team, possibly pick up major injuries in a (relative to our season) meaningless game, Puel out. Play weakened team, too many changes, Puel out. This is a good chance for the kids, at home, as favourites. Win and face Arsenal in the next round.

Lloyd James

Quote of the year right there.

He had no chance with either of the goals vs Hull. Maybe should have saved vs Inter (home). Probably should have saved vs Chelsea (Hazard). No chance vs Inter (away).

Another laughable point was when the Northam kept the ball in the stand whilst Fraser waited for the ball back, a second ball gets finally kicked towards him and as soon as he picks it up the ref is on his case for timewasting as if it was his fault in any way. And yet he said nothing all game to Inter timewasting from the very first minute, every time the ball went dead

Inter are staying at the Marriott Hotel in Meon Valley. The coach driver was staying overnight at the chilworth manor that's why the coach was there.

Endless songs about Pompey and using the same tunes over and over again has taken its toll on how much respect the Norffam gets. Ole ole ole ole Boufal was the best for Boufal we could come up with? Victor Anichebe's song from Sunderland fans (Karma Chameleon) was funny I thought, particularly as he's a ****ing useless lump but has his own song. As for the OP about players and the noise, I'd imagine that's total ******** and have no intention of believing it as true.

Tore his knee ligaments pre season, he will be out all season.

Wasn't Hesketh injured which is why he wasn't in the Inter away squad? Don't know how fit he is.

Kompany/Stones, Koscielny/Mustafi, Sakho,Cahill/Luiz, Alderweireld/vertonghen, A. Williams, C. Smalling/Bailly, M. Britos, Steve cook, D. Delaney, Huth/Morgan, McAuley, W. Keane, W. Reid, R. Shawcross, Ben Gibson, Curtis Davies, F. Fernandez, L. Kone The best centre back from each team, and more than one if they have two decent options. Now who is on the same-ish level as VVD? Kompany/Stones, Koscielny, Cahill, Alderweireld/vertonghen, A. Williams, Huth/Morgan (in terms of success last season). But who really is as good as VVD? Kompany (if ever fit), Koscielny, Alderweireld. I can seriously see one of the European big boys coming calling, in the future he may be the perfect ball playing CB for Barcelona I'd say.

I'm in Milan now, it's been overcast all day, about 14 degrees. Rained for about half an hour a short while ago.

JWP has a song to the tune of Pahars' song. Sung pretty regularly.

Warnock has brought in Chamakh, Sol Bamba, and Junior Hoilett, who are all ****, or are these the sort of short term gems you're after.

Announce Boufal match fit @SouthamptonFC

Boufal played majority of last season on the left wing, and we've already seen Tadic spend a lot of time on the right when he's not playing centrally, even though he is probably best on the left.

People who didn't get tickets even though they wanted them are ****ed off - shock. It's a shame we may not sell out and some good fans can't go, but if you didn't meet the criteria then that's the rub. If they put them on General sale with no purchase history requirement we could have the world and his wife trying to get tickets to a European away game. I still think there will be a lot of Saints fans who have tickets bought for themselves using their own passport on someone else's database account. The club say they won't get in - Oh well they'll have a holiday to Milan.

I think he'll be making the bench by the end of October. Puel said a month a while ago which meant after this international break. We've not even seen him in any training pics yet though.

Apparently the new sponsor is slightly controversial. No idea what could mean

Acoustics are awful at the stadium. Although I don't join in any anti-pompey songs because I can't be ****ed. It's a shame that the Northam seem to rate them highly.

Got an assist in each of the two games before Liverpool. Scored twice coming off the bench in January, although he is capable of playing better.

Some shocking defending there.
