Matthew Le God Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 Koeman & Pelle press conference live at Vitesse's stadium from roughly 4:30pm today... [video=youtube;FDhCQ-0L6xs]
Saint_clark Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 Still looking for one ticket in the away end, three of our group are ok leaving one poor bastard in the home end by himself. Will pay above face value within reason, plus a few beers or whatever. PM me of anyone has a spare.
Saint-Armstrong Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 Koeman asked if he'll rotate: "No, no. I don't like that."
marc_saint Posted 5 August, 2015 Author Posted 5 August, 2015 Shane Long not travelled due to illness
Saint-Armstrong Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 Jordy Clasie has not travelled either. Steven Caulker is now available and could be involved. Clasie and Long could be back this weekend, but Bertrand needs two weeks more. Gastón also injured.
Saint_Ash Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 Shame about Long, want him to get on the pitch.
Saint-Armstrong Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 Koeman sounding genuinely sad talking about the Eredivisie... Says too many young players and too many leaving the league too quickly. Clasie is 24, Koeman was 26 when he left. Said too many 18-21 year olds with agents pushing for moves, not good for the Dutch game.
mikeyc Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 Who was the other player after the VVD question who RK said is not on his list? I couldn't hear the question.
Saint Garrett Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 Who was the other player after the VVD question who RK said is not on his list? I couldn't hear the question. Goretzka.
Batman Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 Who was the other player after the VVD question who RK said is not on his list? I couldn't hear the question. the Kraut, I think
Batman Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 well, that was shyt. most of these are these days.
buctootim Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 What did he say? I only caught the end part in Dutch
Saint-Armstrong Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 What did he say? I only caught the end part in Dutch - Taking it seriously - Hates losing - Won't be doing a West Ham and fielding a weakened side - Caulker is available to play - Long is ill and in England - Clasie is in England - Both of those two could return against Newcastle - Bertrand still 2/3 weeks away - Gastón is injured and his future at Saints is 'difficult' - Goretzka is not on his list - Won't comment on Van Dijk as he's not my player That's the Saints-related stuff. The rest was him talking about his time in Arnhem and his views on Dutch football.

Saint-Armstrong Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 He did also say he wants another CB! That was where the van Dijk question followed from, if I remember rightly.
buctootim Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 He did also say he wants another CB! That was where the van Dijk question followed from, if I remember rightly. Basically "I cant confirm or deny but join the dots together" then.
Saint Charlie Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 He did also say he wants another CB! That was where the van Dijk question followed from, if I remember rightly. His comments on VVD pretty said , "We want him, others do too, lets see what develops but I'm hopeful."
Saint-Armstrong Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 Sounds like Erwin could be managing tomorrow, apparently Koeman needs an op pronto.
VectisSaint Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 So J Rod could play a part then I'm sure he would not have travelled if he was not expected to be available to play some part. It looks like we only took 16 outfield players from the video (2 groups of 5 and one group of 6), and assume there are 2 keepers, so 18. That's the match day squad. To me, whether or not JRod starts tomorrow, its more important that he could play a part on Sunday. In which case I doubt he will start tomorrow, but may get used as a late sub, and then he will definitely be available for Sunday, at least on the bench.
SO16_Saint Posted 6 August, 2015 Posted 6 August, 2015 What time is kick off in the UK?, BBC saying 7 but not sure if that's local time or UK time
SO16_Saint Posted 6 August, 2015 Posted 6 August, 2015 Its 8 in NL, 7 in UK. Bugger. Getting the kids down for 7 isn't going to fly. Just the second half for me then
Pancake Posted 6 August, 2015 Posted 6 August, 2015 Bugger. Getting the kids down for 7 isn't going to fly. Just the second half for me then Let them watch it?
SO16_Saint Posted 6 August, 2015 Posted 6 August, 2015 Let them watch it? They're too young to understand really, only 18m and 3.5 and too close to bedtime to be overly accommodating They normally go down at about 7:15-7:45
richard Posted 6 August, 2015 Posted 6 August, 2015 They're too young to understand really, only 18m and 3.5 and too close to bedtime to be overly accommodating They normally go down at about 7:15-7:45 Don't let them nap at lunchtime. Then put them into their jimmy-jams and go for a drive at 6.30.

Nip of scotch will seem em asleep before 7. Will be watching with my 3 month old in my arms, and the 8yo & 5yo on the sofa.
GarrettIvo Posted 6 August, 2015 Posted 6 August, 2015 The 10 week old will be in bed I hope. So will her mum. I hope.
Norm Posted 6 August, 2015 Posted 6 August, 2015 To save me searching this thread, is it on TV or web, please?
Beckenham Saint Posted 6 August, 2015 Posted 6 August, 2015 To save me searching this thread, is it on TV or web, please? BT Sport 2, 7pm
Beckenham Saint Posted 6 August, 2015 Posted 6 August, 2015 Thank you. Looks like the web then. That cricfree site usually have a good BT Sport stream I think
SO16_Saint Posted 6 August, 2015 Posted 6 August, 2015 Don't let them nap at lunchtime. Then put them into their jimmy-jams and go for a drive at 6.30. ... Ah, bummer. Nip of scotch will seem em asleep before 7. Will be watching with my 3 month old in my arms, and the 8yo & 5yo on the sofa. Hmm. Short term gain but theyll be up even earlier on Friday morning!!
Pancake Posted 6 August, 2015 Posted 6 August, 2015 ... Hmm. Short term gain but theyll be up even earlier on Friday morning!! That is true.
trousers Posted 6 August, 2015 Posted 6 August, 2015 (edited) http://www.thefa.com/news/england/development/2015/aug/lewis-baker-urges-more-english-youngsters-abroad-060815 Baker and his new team-mates are confident that they can still turn it around if they are more clinical in front of goal. "Southampton finished the chances they had and hopefully we can do the same," added Baker, who has played with Saints trio James Ward-Prowse, Harrison Reed and Matt Targett in the England youth set-up. "Nobody has any doubt we can get something from the game and hopefully the fans can give the same support and we can get something from the game." Edited 6 August, 2015 by trousers

nick1579 Posted 6 August, 2015 Posted 6 August, 2015 Bugger. Getting the kids down for 7 isn't going to fly. Just the second half for me then Watch it at the pub and let mum put them to bed. That's what I'm doing
Bucks Saint Posted 6 August, 2015 Posted 6 August, 2015 Watch it at the pub and let mum put them to bed. That's what I'm doing The key is to not have BT Sport at home.
