Devilish statement: Ronald Koeman has always appeared to play down Rodriguez from the start. Almost like he knows that the player will not have a future at Southampton FC. If that is the case then why bother giving the player game time towards the end of the regular season 2014/2015?

Well Southampton won't like to allow him to leave for free.

Great news. However unless he extends his contract I cannot see how the Club will not sell him this summer. Daily Telegraph in UK reporting that Spurs fully expect to buy his rights this summer. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/tottenham-hotspur/11509329/Andros-Townsend-wants-talks-with-Tottenham-over-his-future.html

Pardon me for saying, but with respectful nature I do not think you understand the mechanics of a knee particularly well!

I follow Saint Armstrong on Twitter because he is very productive at providing news for those of us overseas. Less keen am I though on the rival Southend content. Would be good to split out the two I propose. As a non native and with the two names similar, it can be confusing. Yuki.

Very umprofessional from an International Manager. Quite shocking really.

Kelvis played well against Burnley and showed his quality and spirit. I hadn't seen him play before but the TV experts over here said he was an experienced goalkeeper and will be reliable back up. I am happy with that and the Saints seem to be too!! Yuki

Sorry Charlie. My knowledge of English curses is not the best! I don't really know what you mean but great win today for the Saints.

Always good to hear more from the histories of the club. Thanks Ron. Yuki.

First half I thought the team did not play out of a good organisation like normal...too many attacking players in the selection. Good ball position though and the superior team on the day, accounting that they did have some presentable chances. The reserve goalkeeper did well. I haven't seen him play before but he impressed me with his agility to reach two of the shots.

Mason a good example of someone being given a chance later on. He is 23 I think.

I doubt that. Most Football Players are not especially well educated as they spend their formation years on the soccer pitch rather than in class! Yuki.

Joyous draw. First half played out of a good organisation and achieved good ball position with Mane especially good. Second half we showed that with a good spirit we can achieve long success. Speaking of Shame Long...he did well.

Rest up ahead of tomorrow's big game. I see on the other thread you have suggested dropping our best midfielder this year (Mugabe) and playing Reed instead. Hopefully Southampton does better in the EPL tomorrow than you have on this messageboard webforum tonight. Yuki.

For me, Maya assist for Mane. Brilliant pass. Showing his quality in an unfamiliar position.

Love Maya. Love Saints. Love Japan.

Sorry. I am not understanding. The EPL isn't poor, but Chelsea have been for months and yet are still the best team in it? I simply disagree with your logic, or lack of. What on earth do you mean? Yuki.

Many times I see these type of reactions from you. I would suggest to think before writing these unkind words to fellow fans of the Saints!! In Japan it is to lose one's honour by publically appearing to lose your senses, even briefly. Many do not recover. We live in a world of different opinions, beliefs and cultures. Embrace it young boy, or else it will swallow you up! Yuki

Koeman standing stoic on the touchline with his legs apart.

Have not even given the Bromich goalkeeper a save to do yet!!!

Southampton beat West Bromich last year Sir! Since I have been a follower of the Club we have only lost twice to them I think in 2012/2013 season. 2-0 today with Pelle and Yoshida on the sheet.

We don't. He has only ever played as a centrally positioned defender for the NT.

He will never let you down and always shows his qualities and calmness in a sea of surging water. Next step: Southampton FC to take advantage of the legacy he has created the club in Japan.
