SNSUN Posted 17 October, 2014 Share Posted 17 October, 2014 (edited) Level on awards with Pochettino for us in only his second month. Well done Ronald. Well done to Pellè too, I'm more surprised about that award but delighted. Edited 17 October, 2014 by SNSUN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallyboy Posted 17 October, 2014 Share Posted 17 October, 2014 A really great achievement for both. Against Newcastle when Pelle mis-shinned that shot to Tadic before rolling in the return pass I must confess I didn't see his potential as a player of the month! But he must have doubled his value in two months. At this point he looks like a great investment, and by pulling on the designer label of Southampton FC he is being recognised on the international stage. Our contribution to international football is bonkers at the moment. Someone upstairs is showing inspired judgement, and you don't get to say that very often so let's enjoy it. Who knows, we might even be able to hold onto the manager and the player for a bit.... Anyway, put away the awards, three points tomorrow is the next target.

Saint86 Posted 17 October, 2014 Share Posted 17 October, 2014 Finally get to use my season ticket for the first time since opening day and this happens! It was bad enough that its Sunderland who always park the bus and we always struggle against. But now we get given these 2 gongs... May as well bet on a Sunderland 1-0 win now and be done with it.

Beckenham Saint Posted 17 October, 2014 Share Posted 17 October, 2014 Think Pelle seems like the kind of player that will grow in confidence with this award, and, hopefully want to show exactly why he is deserving of it. Hopefully he does so tomorrow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Charlie Posted 17 October, 2014 Share Posted 17 October, 2014 Great work from both, and well deserved, hopefully we can continue this kind of success. As an aside could see one of the big Italian teams coming in for Pelle in the summer or the summer after if he maintains this kind of form - they would all like the prestige of having the Italian number 9 and he would surely want to end his career having "made it" in his home country.

Juve, perhaps, maybe AC Milan or Inter, but Italian football is going through a bad financial phase currently. Let's hope that's the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pelle to headbutt Fonte in January and get a move to Inter on loan, pairing up with Osvaldo to make a deadly strike force akin to Liverpool's SAS of last season, the 'OAP'.

Thats the type that would be in for him though, not the Lecce's or Bologna's. No point worrying about it, but if Inter and Juve at different times have taken Osvaldo, then if Pelle decided he wanted to end his career over there, then I'm sure he could get a move to one of those. After scoring 50 goals over two seasons for us of course! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry the Badger Posted 17 October, 2014 Share Posted 17 October, 2014 This is the same Graziano Pelle who was getting jeered 30 minutes into his home debut? Surely not.

John Boy Saint Posted 17 October, 2014 Share Posted 17 October, 2014 Watching the Graziano interview, its massive positive statement for Saints, being picked for your national team whilst playing for Southampton, Italy is a big gun on the International stage with a big pool of players to dip into, Morgan playing for France, Nathaniel getting called into England as well as the 4 last season, and Jose for Portugal, all called up for the first time playing for us. There will be players out there who in the future will be on our shopping list and whilst CL football might not be on the agenda with us just yet, the opportunity to be seen for an International call up is a tempting selling point to play for the Saints, as every Football player dreams of playing for their National side one day.
