Lee On Solent Saint

Eleven players behind the ball at all times. Don't even bother trying to get over the halfway line

Christ. If they are three up against United by 40 minutes, what are they going to do to us?

I want someone who knows how to set up a team, who knows proper tactics, who knows when and how to make subs to change a game, who knows what his best team is. Above all else I want someone who knows how to win football matches, instead of just cobbling a side together and hoping for the best.

I think it's more likely that Salisu leaves in January given his contract situation

That's not the point I'm making. We spent a fair amount by our standards, and can you say apart from ABK and Lavia that the others have improved the starting eleven let alone the squad as a whole?

For me, the point would be that they spent their money a lot more wisely than we did

Hearing Ralph's endless fuckin excuses is really rubbing me up the wrong way

Agreed. Perraud is average but at least he has a bit of experience.

Shame we didn't do that, instead of being obsessed with buying players that will hopefully turn a profit. At this point the only two I would have signed were ABK and Lavia.

Anyone who paid to watch that shit

Dowie? Much rather have him than Adams. Least he would let the opposing centre halves know they were in a game. Adams is pretty powder puff

To be honest, who would get anything out of our squad at the moment. It's horrendously lacking in quality and cohesion. Was a fan of Ralph and think he is a decent guy, but enough is enough now.

The new owners stumped up some money but instead of buying established players we brought a load of kids, hoping to make a profit on them.

Surely to fuck he had to going we lose this one?

No help for me. My lad plays most Sundays at various different times. Would be difficult getting back in time to get into town.

Need to win this game. No excuses.

Shades of Le Tiss here. Comfortable at Saints, lacking ambition or confidence to take his game to the next level.

May do. Depending on the manner of the draw and if the crowd turn on him.

He'll take Phillips and Henderson over JWP, even if they aren't fit. Not sure I see the point in Southgate calling up JWP, he has and never will have any intention of taking him to a tournament.

Does anyone really get excited about international football anymore? I've found the older I get, I'm getting less and less interested in watching England. I love football too will watch the World Cup, but really not that bothered about what England do anymore.

Just saw a Gabbiadini in the Italian squad. Is that are ex player?

Garbage

JWP is nowhere near the level of either Schneiderlin or Wanyama

Even though he was average, Redmond was far more of an attacking threat than Elynoussi.

I wouldn't be surprised if the compensation for Frank would be a lot more than 2m
