Nothing says ‘pushing on to the next level’ like not bothering about trying to improve the squad. Bit disappointed tbh

Cracking ‘statement signings’

When's KWP signing with Everton to be with his best mate, then...? 😉

Looks like they're trolling Spurs now

Do you really think Eddie Howe will be there for phase two? He'll be jettisoned quicker than one can say 'I don't think regimes with public executions should be allowed to own football clubs' Whoops. How did that get in there...

Not sure they'd care, given the wages they'll get in the interim and someone else will offer them a home

They've shored up their defence, weakened a relegation rival considerably, and invested in a decent midfielder and probably some more to come. Easily enough to progress to phase two after staying up. Eminently sensible to me. Next season will be the one where they invest in a higher grade. Basically early Man City.

They've basically sorted their defence, which was the problem. Linguard will also strengthen them if they get him. They've got Henderson probably. And Guimaraes is another good signing. So yes. The squad we should have faced, no.

So as predicted Newcastle will basically have a new team by the time we play them. It is not fair on anyone. Premier League now clearly jump when they say so, oiled by their money. Corrupt.

Sounds like Targett off to Newcastle too in their 'operation just stay up before jettisoning them next season including the manager' Cynical bastards

all sounds very exciting. Chelsaints.

Or they are people trafficking and money-laundering. (joking)

Agree about Newcastle; disagree about Dan Burn. Good, solid defender who also scores goals. Not slow despite his size.

This. Although still difficult to take when anyone would choose Spurs. They don't even have their own song.

Has to get a work permit as he's Flemish

Ali-Cho. Not to be sneezed at.

When is the 'statement signing' arriving? Suspect it might be 'summer'.

Quite. Ours don’t seem too great

Souness seems a bit pissed off we didn’t lose

Very impressed with KWP in interview. And Borja seems happy here. Awful journo questions. How about: ‘will you stay?’

And I won at the bookies

Bloody brilliant.

‘Saints held by Man City’

Bloody hell mo

Che has been excellent today
