Except the new TV deal is entirely relative. Our position in the food chain remains identical.

Bring back the Tactics Truck FFS.

What a wasted summer.

And he's done okay at it. One day he might be as good at tapping players up as Ronald Koeman.

Garry Monk is not red and white through and through.

£289m is a heck of a lot of money in that ball.

That'll do.

Don't screw this up Matty.

A very successful Matchday 3 in the Capital One Cup. Great to see the strikers getting amongst it, albeit against lower-level Championship reserves.

We will walk this cup.

Amen to that. Where we are now is a rather more longwinded path to the Europa League group stage.

Indeed. You can't say we're not taking it seriously with that line up. And we should be.

Krueger is not driving our transfer policy. The major players we've brought in this summer are no more "rookies" than the players we've brought in in previous summers. Like, say, Nathaniel Clyne.

Are you sure he didn't actually say something more like "we signed Soares once it became clear Clyne was not going to sign his new contract". Same words, different order. Being that Les's words are picked apart on here I can't believe if he had said that then it wouldn't already be covered on here numerous times.

Sunderland are out. That's our name on the cup, boys.

You have no idea what the word rookie means, have you?

We had Puncheon on loan at Palace a year before Tadic signed, and he was a permanent Palace player more than six months before Koeman and Tadic even knew where Southampton was.

Don't forget to do exactly the same joke another ten times this week. Hey, a league cup tie is always a great time to do it several times, like you have done for every round of every cup for more than a decade. Win or lose it's a comedy goldmine for someone doing the same joke over and over again. Fill your boots. And next weekend you can start all over again, doing exactly the same joke again and again. And again and again. Have a great time now.

So you agree with me. All signings are bought by the club. Cheers.

Did he explain some signings are "bought by Koeman" and some are "bought by the club"? No, he didn't.

He genuinely thinks he is hilarious.

As opposed to what? All signings are bought by the club.

A signing from the Portuguese League where Koeman managed for a couple of years and would clearly have contacts. Nah, nothing to do with him, guv.

LOL. Okay then.

What rookies have we signed to replace those that have left?
