Need to get on the front foot and have a right go at a weak defence. The team owe everyone who went to Brentford away last season a big performance. 3-0 Saints.

I'm already pissed off with the number of home games that are at 2pm on a Sunday when I can't make it. 3pm on Saturday please, and stick with it.

I really think we need to forget this one. If the Leeds chairman is tweeting this I reckon they think they've got a good chance to get him in January after the WC, and only aren't getting him now because the visionary Van Gaal thought that playing in the Premier League wouldn't be a good idea for Gakpo. Nice while it lasted, move on. I'd be happy to proven wrong though!

Of course he's got a hat trick. What else did anyone expect?

He's only scored twice so far this evening, not sure what all the fuss is about.

'Brownhill is amazing' was the comment from my Burnley supporting mate. And I don't think he's trying to do a reverse-Bednarek on me 😄

Leeds just pressed the hell out of them and gave them no peace and no time. We can do the same if we pick the right team.

I still think it's most likely that Broja will come back on loan again (depending on who Chelsea sign). All other known options seem to have been exhausted, but there's probably a wildcard out there as well who hasn't been discussed at all. I mean who had Sekou Mara on their HCDAJFU bingo card?

Yes, me too. Keyboard warriors talking shite, who knew?

What a player! Thanks for the memories David.

Great day out. Lavia Bella Aribo and Baz have all improved the first 11, and I reckon Mara will come good. When it all gels, and if we get a couple more in before the end of the window, we’ll rack up quite a few wins. Although Che nearly scoring a second half hat-trick off the bench, and then being sold to Everton four days later, would be peak #Saintsy.

Let’s face it, we haven’t had an outright nutter up top since Dani Osvaldo. Bring it on. Again.

£35m is insane. Forest are being way more profligate than the Saudi Barcodes. It may work for them but splashing the cash in every conceivable direction doesn’t sound like a plan. Strong Fulham from a couple of years ago vibes.

It’s already comical FFS. Mara’s been binned off/written off after 45 minutes… Lavia and Bazunu wouldn’t get into any other PL team… Ralph’s deliberately throwing matches… What a load of old pony. One thing I do agree with - we need at least one striker in who’s better than anyone we have. Without that, even a Klopp/Pep dream team would struggle.

Nmecha is decent and far more experienced than Mara. Or Adam Armstrong for that matter. He’s a full German international FFS.

Best day out last season, no question. Won’t be there today so fingers and toes crossed COYR

I approve this message.

If you take Erikssen out of Brentford they are -and were - bang average. Second season syndrome and relegation alongside Bompey for them. And I say that having stood through Brentford 3 Saints 0 not so long ago. But we weren’t bang average then, we were shite.

When he plays in the hole he always empties the tank though.

Swings and roundabouts. Tyler Dybling and £3.5m for Tino Livramento? Yes please. If he turns into a superstar we’ll buy him back in 2024/5 when he gets bored waiting for his chance behind Mason Mount and ten other midfielders. Good luck to the lad.

Have you got an invite code for the saintsweb league?

No fan of the Tories, but he hardly started out super rich. His family ran the Burgess Road chemist shop. Straight down the hill, past my house, to The Dell.

Was planning to buy first thing tomorrow when it went to premium members, as I go to more away than at home. if anyone finds their plans change and they have two spare tickets, I’d be very happy to snap them up. 🙏🏽

He’s already miles better than Dan Sheldon imo, who rarely told me anything I didn’t know. Might even keep my Athletic subscription as a result
