And Marian. And even Marians. (Spellcheck alert). Legend.

Leave Marion out of it. That is all.

Lemina woah-oh Lemina woah-oh-oh-oh He came from Italy He ****ing hate Po... Oh hang on, we've done that one before. Give me a sec...

Nah, to take it on from a poster a couple of days ago... the we're not selling version... We've got Van Dijk The ****er's gone on strike He just doesn't seem to understand It's a six year plan And he's Pellegrino's man **** you Virgil van Dijk

It's been obvious for some time and that VD is a complete spoon. So we shouldn't really be surprised by such a laughable statement. Reserves until Christmas for me - then sell to whoever offers the most.

Good interview. A man who really cares. COYR

If we get no midfielders in I think we're relying pretty heavily on PEH stepping it up quite a bit from last season. Not impossible - but a gamble nonetheless.

Lobotomy probably.

Can someone organise a petition that we can all sign asking the club not to sell him to Liverpool? I think they need to know how the fanbase feels. Maybe a season-long loan to Brighton instead? Or failing that, how about a protest march starting on the Itchen Bridge before the Augsburg friendly and ending up in, er, I dunno, the pub?

Best thing about the game was the new 'old' kit. Main reason why I think we'll have a good season.

F*ck me, this thread...

I'd love Vieira - he wouldn't put up with any sh1t from anyone, he plays good football, and with a few tips he'd turn Romeu into a monster. Don't think it will be him though...

That is a pretty damning analysis.

**** it who cares. Saints 1 Dippers 0

Ah well, the Scousehampton fans can laugh at us again. We'll have to console ourselves by laughing at the deluded Everton fans. #herecomesthesummer

The Premier League has lost the plot. Clubs should be slashing season ticket prices, all ticket prices, dramatically. But I won't hold my breath. And £70 million for Virgil? Sod that, I just want to see him in a Saints shirt next season.

Next season will be the time to judge whether Hojberg and Boufal are hit or miss. I think we're all disappointed that Boufal hasn't made a bigger impact but you can see that he's got insane talent - it's whether he and the coaching staff can use it to good effect in the Prem. As for Hoj, I may be wrong but I'm pretty convinced he'll come good. I remember some of the insane sh1t some people on here used to throw at Morgan when we were in Div 2 and 3. Pied's a clear upgrade on Cuco from the brief glimpses we've seen and McCarthy's a class keeper who will hopefully be fully fit for the start of next season. I'm a Redmond fan too, even though I know he divides opinion. So overall I don't think it's been as bad as some make out.

Edit: Jokanovic. But I think you get the drift.

I'm prepared to give Claude another year because chopping and changing is never a good policy. But if he goes, and if Fulham fail to win the playoffs, Jovanovic please. No idea how well we'd do but we'd certainly see positive attacking football.

So... pivotal second half coming up. Win and we'll be looking at beating West Brom next up and finishing 8th. Lose and I'll be heading to M+S for spare underpants.

What a load of bowlarks. Well done to both JWP and Nathan. How many Saints fans p1ss on their own parade? COYR

There's also a link to another article in which Black says VVD is the best defender he's ever worked with and is currently the best in England. So he does know what he's talking about after all.

Or to put it another way, he acted like a concerned responsible citizen. Move on.

Money can't buy me love. You know you want to. Plays up front for the mighty Saints And he came from Napoli Doesn't speak any English yet But he ****ing hates Pompey I don't care too much for Mane Mane isn't Manolo Gabbiadini Everybody tells me so Gabbiadini Manolo- oh

Every time you watch that Sims run it gets better and better. Six touches from one end of the park to the other - each of them perfectly weighted. Get the **** in!
