Nolan

More likely is that they were on the London Platform to catch a east coast train to the North West. Theres a cross country service that heads to Manchester around 15.30

Am I reading the same long thread? Because I feel no remember reading pretty much the the same about Jay rod 2 years ago. Only this time we have to pay that tiny bit more because we need more home grown players in the squad.

Seems to me that the words "home grown" tend to add 50% to a players true value. Whether buying or selling.

They have to have been affiliated with British clubs for at least two full seasons prior to the the season in which they turn 21 to qualify as being Homegrown. edit.... So Gazzaniga actually may qualify depending on what point in August 2011 Gillingham signed him.

Presumeably Sharp is not going to be with Saints come September. so the signing of Forster gets us back to within the Premier League Squad rules of 8 Over 21 Home Grown Players. (K. Davis, Clyne, Schneiderlin, S. Davis, Jay Rod, Cork, Bertrand, Forster) the Home Grown rule is also part of the reason Schneiderlin, Jay Rod and Cork can't go anywhere (without British replacements).

MoPo. De? Is he trying to hijack deals now?

the British Summer has and will always go on until September 21st. (unless you're a meteorologist and it goes on until September 1st because you struggle with doing statistics mid months)

Three?

Since when was scoring for Barcelona the ONLY thing I mentioned?

We've fallen so far we've got about 17 players in our 25 may squad And we are moaning about a player with world cup goals and assists this year as well as scoring against Barcelona in the champions league last year.?

Not sure when Cash Converters started paying over the odds for things. ..

I don't think there have single player in our wage range that people would be happy with. Personally I know how desperate celtic were to keep Samaras, and he would do a job up the front on the left.

I'd love you to elaborate on why prep for the season appears poor. For all intents and purposes seems Koemans workings and ideas have come across well in matches.

Talk sport + Southampton = Alex crook

Schellotto plays anywhere on the right inc rb

surely Scholetto has versatility in being able to play anywhere on the right hand side of the pitch. That can be extremely useful when changing formations mid way through a match

It was someone who definitely wasn't dutch.

It was Jim Lucas actually

Don't be an idiot. There's a reason our first pre season friendly was 10 days after training started.

Of course he won't play after 2 days training. He isn't near match fitness.

So much so that the official Southampton twitter account has blocked him apparently.

He's a left footed cb for Club, but he plays lb for country.

At least you label all your posts 'pap' you're very honest with that. And I'm glad your xbox one purchase will be coming so soon.

Sony are refusing to allow 'Ea access'. So it seems the company that allows owners to make their own educated decisions is Microsoft.

Is this really a done deal? All I see on twitter is a quote from Taider saying "I don't feel the need to change environment"
