Injury and illness are irrelevant to suspensions. So his ban will be served today.

OK, thanks, although I thought others had said that KWP's ban for 5 yellow cards was specific to PL games whereas Salisu's suspension for a red card could be served in any competition, so that he would get his out of the way today.

MLG has confused things, and then tried to fix it by editing his incorrect statement, which you quoted before he changed it. KWP's suspension applied only to PL games (totting up yellow card bans are competition specific), but if he still has covid when we play Brentford his suspension will be served, irrespective of injury/illness. Regards Salisu, the rules say that a suspension for a red card is applied to any competition (PL, FA Cup, EFL Cup) and so Salisu should serve his suspension today. BUT there seems to be some confusion now as Ralph said in his presser that Salisu would be suspended for the Brentford game (or words to that effect) so now there is some doubt about him, but no doubt about KWP.

I thought Ralph said in the presser Salisu was suspended for Swansea, was only half listening though at work

Maybe MLG confused him?

THREAD BUMP

KWP ❤️ 

Yeah, he did absolutely nothing to deserve to be out the starting line up at the start of the season. 
He’s a tremendous player, we are lucky to have him, another Jose balls up letting him go from Spurs.

He would be one of the first names on the team sheet for me.

With Trent AA out injured, surely a KWP England call up is imminent? Perhaps waiting for him to come through today's game uninjured before announcing.

Looks like James is out too. Could be a good argument that KWP and Livramento are England's best two available rightbacks. Walker is out too, Lampety hasn't looked so good this season after an injury hit last season.

Daily Mail suggests Tyrick Mitchell will replace James. He must be bloody good to be selected ahead of KWP who is having a tremendous season.

Every game he plays he seems to be more impressive. He has done well at left back previously, but yesterday it looked like it was his natural position. It makes such a difference when he plays. He makes things happens, beating men, drawing others to him and creating space. Without that, we play in front of teams. I was so impressed with his ball skills yesterday. Very surprised he is not the next right back on Gareth's list. Perhaps that is a good thing. Saints players (JWP apart) seem to depart not long after call ups.

I reckon we'll see some "big 6" interest in KWP in the summer.....unfortunately. So, how much is he worth now?  Start the bidding at £60m I'd say. I think he is that good. Arsenal paid £50m for Dan Burn didn't they? Bearing in mind we have Tino and Perraud it would be a handy £60m to invest elsewhere. Just saying.

I think you mean Ben White. Usually a bit of a premium for centre backs.

Cant understand why KWP wouldnt be picked for the England squad but Tyrick Mitchell would. Mitchell is ok - he's solid for Palace but hasnt stood out when I've seen them live a few times this season, whereas KWP stands out pretty much every game as being one of the best players on the pitch. Plus he can play both sides. What's not to like?!

He's got his call up, alongside Mitchell.

Well played KWP!

The right call. Been fantastic for 18 month or so now, very much deserved. 

On current form, should be a shoe in for the WC squad based on his ability to play either side. 
 

Very unfortunate to play at a time where England are blessed with RB’s who are world class. Similar to Bridge being behind Cole.

Uh oh, he's being noticed! Our best and most consistent player this season and he hasn't even playing in his natural position, or side for the majority of it. At least he knows he doesn't need to leave Southampton to get into the England squad.

Until Southgate tells him that he does if he wants to be picked again.

I'm absolutely shitting myself now.

We on Saintsweb all know that going away on international duty is the first time a Southampton player ever hears about the existence of other football clubs, the first time they find out that those clubs pay more in wages, and he first time that the player understands he could play for one of those clubs instead of us.

Once KWP hears this information for the very first time, we've had it.

It can’t be. Mike Dean was tapping him up Yesterday, to join city.

Nice lad is KWP, often said in interviews how grateful he is to SFC for giving him his opportunity. I fear he'll be off at some point though, but I would wish him the best of luck should that happen. One of the few players we have that you love seeing on the ball, I think you could play him as a winger he's that talented. Whoever wants to buy him, £40M+ please.

Let s tie to a new contract first, he can leave in 2 seasons

Well deserved, hope he manages to get on and get an England cap. 

How many full England Internationals in our squad will that be? 6 I think 

Alex McCarthy, Fraser Forster, JWP, Walcott, Redmond, and KWP would be no. 6 if he gets on so yeah I think so too.

Although Alex/Redmond managed to play just one game, Fraser had 6, Theo with 47 and JWP on 9.

Agree with that, can't remember many Southampton players in my time that I havent been nervous that they're going to give it away. KWP has a great mix of excellent technical ability and awareness.

Not before time either. Once he's in the side he will be very hard to displace. Well done Kyle and keep up the good work.

Agree with this.

Just goes to show what I know about players.

Thought he was overpriced when we bought him from Spurs.

Must be in the running for POTY

Not going to lie, I was a bit underwhelmed by the January loan we made for him. Felt like a cheapo option. He wasn't particularly rated by anyone at the time and Spurs wanted rid etc. But looking back now his signing was the start of our massive scouting improvement.

I guess after years of Ross Wilson and co I had no trust in our scouting, but I think the new lot know what they're doing. Matt Crocker has a huge say in these 'young' signings as he'd have seen them all/worked with them in the English age groups over the years. I think even Lyanco was someone he crossed paths with in the youth setup, as he was in the Brazilian youth teams.

It's kinda exciting to see what we will do this summer, as I'm sure we're looking at players not even in our consciousness atm!

He’s the only right back in the squad so surely he’s going to start - can’t even really see anyone you might shoehorn into right back instead of him.

I've not been paying attention but that's quite funny when there were 4 right backs in the squad for the Euros last summer and now none of them are available for these pointless friendlies? 

We are in a World Cup year so nows the chance to get involved. JWP was in every England squad building up to the Euros and then missed out so Southgate owes him for that.

That was ridiculous with JWP. Wasn’t he the main man in the last friendly, taking all set pieces and widely getting praised by everyone for great performances, and then suddenly Ben White gets taken to not play a single minute…

Yep absolute joke in my opinion,  he could have taken one of those pens in the final..instead we had an 50% fit Henderson offering nothing

Looks like he's off to Spurs or Man Utd this summer

Only our lad KWP will be off too. 

It's only Saints players that get tapped up, Tyrick Mitchell and Marc Guehi will no doubt stay put. ;)

Mcguire and Kanes sole role in this international break is to tap up our players. Other clubs know we are weak and will take the first offer we get so once they have found out for the first time how much better it is elsewhere all that's need is a low bid to close the deal.

Was obvious he wouldn't go under the rdar much longer as has bden excellent on both sides.

Spurs don't currently need a full back and he has 3 years left on his contract so (aside from Spurs) we could essentially name a price.

That said, interesting timing for this stuff to suddenly emerge...agent driven most likely, so perhaps he wants to move now?

Wouldn't imagine his salary at Saints is reflective of how good he is, mostly because he has improved so much and gained England caps since signing it.

Likely we will sell him next summer but would be a massive signal from SR to get someone like him to sign an extension.

Ornstien claiming he has a £30m release clause, pretty dreadful business from saints if that’s true, 

Especially if there's a buy back clause as he was a player spurs were looking to get shot of at the time with no future there.

But - £30m for KWP, and Feyenoord looking for c £8m for Pedersen, you can see how the club might view it. The downside of course being KWP's versatility to play both RB & lb.
