Surprised Charlie Austin wasn't selected.

He will make Sheffield United a great club again.

But we all cherished Lallana

I reckon we will with some quality loan players, then we won't be saddled with high wage bills after Christmas in the unlikely event that we don't make the Final.

Actually that would be choice. Then we can all make both matches. Probably the nearest we will get to the pitch would be one of the surrounding hills though.

I would love to be wearing that design. Bring it on Saints.

Everyone? Oh no, not again. Let's hope this strengthens contract negotiations ...please

So if Chambers's defection stirred Ralph and co into vocal action, did Chambers actually do us a favour? We were all sh*****g ourselves when the exodus was becoming a route.

I agree with Bertand on 10. Also think people are being a little hard on Gazz at 4 for his last performance in goal, but overall yes it has to be around 5. I expect him to improve with more experience in the first team - if we do not get a temp cover for Forster.

I answer myself. Told ya

Please let it be that we beat ManCiteh, and Spurs and Liverpool lose. That would be the best poetic justice of all. Let it happen. C'mon lads, it can be done! (but sorry, Sterling, you're not good enough for us.)

Doesn't Long's brilliant long range goal on Saturday get a chance, or was Saturday too late?

Why? Best forgotten

Saints are willing to pay £10 million for Charlie Austin according to The Guardian's rumour mill. I would applaud this.

Do you mean we lost on purpose? The short excerpts on motd were the worst examples of Saints defending I recall seeing, and that includes our demise towards league 1. There is only one 'purposeful' conclusion. We now definitely know that Gazaniga has no place in Premiership football. Sorry, it has to be said. But how come our recent resolute defence can shambolicolise in just a few matches?

I see Jay is training wearing what looks like a wig. Surely there are better wig styles than that.

Liverpool have just lost 1-0 to Hull! So 5th place is on if we have a good run in

I don't think so. Kelvin I'm sure would like to play for ever, but he will realise that there has to come a time when he can retire while being at the top. He has had a very good innings and done us proud.

I couldn't see his arm from the other end of the pitch, and if Saints players didn't appeal I guess that it must have been within margins of error, just. I still feel gutted, and the draw still feels like a defeat, more so today since the Independent says Lamela guided the ball with his arm. Oh well next year we'll thrash them.

I'm amazed that this forum hasn't melted down with outrage that Spurs only won through Lamela's cheating. Or did supporters in the ground (like me) not see Lamela guide the ball goalwards with his arm?

Everyone, even the greatest, can miss penalties, but his goals record would make him the player we need. (And could have done with this season - in hindsight of course. Think how that might have improved our European chances.)

Which tense are you living in?

According to the BBC we had just 36% possession

"Wanyama dismissed the story and Koeman himself said it had no foundation. "From Victor's part it is all rubbish and he never said that. I believe that" Koeman told BBC Radio Solent.
