Gloucester Saint

Belgian transfer window closes next Monday so would expect Edozie to have moved by then. He’d be well down the pecking order here now. Turkey and Greece next Friday - could be Aribo’s destination, Saudi is 23 September https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c79lpz27g4xo

Yeah ABK had the ability but not the application. Rationale behind that signing wasn’t bad as with Salisu. Lyanco never even looked anywhere good enough, better attitude than those two but emergency option at best in the PL. Not sure he’d be that much better in the Champ. Not sure what Semmens was up there.

If Neil can get him on the weights and bulking up a bit Millwall will have a footballer they will really enjoy. Great weight of pass, good touch, and can finish. The right manager to get Russball out of his head and make him more progressive again, take a few more risks. Too lightweight for Still’s preferred formation and hasn’t got the engine for the PL where Saints want to be back to but wouldn’t take that much to get him more robust so that he could at Champ level.

Could be Saudi, Brownhill is heading there for £100k plus per week. Joe isn’t quite as good but could get £60-75k possibly. And a Nigeria international. Turkey better for a WC call up.

If he can gain some physical robustness to go with the excellent first touch, weigh of pass and good shooting, they could have themselves a very good player there. Ship sailed under Martin in terms of beefing up but at least Millwall will hopefully getting him taking some more creative options on the ball and not just the safe once preached by Beardy.

@Wade Garrett volunteers to make Gavin Bazunu’s tea…

The Apprentice winner Leah Totton got there first.

Who with? Just curious…

Brownhill just rejected Wolves (and Leicester) as Al-Shabab in Saudi have offered him north of £100k per week. Mindboggling.

Onono is what the Stretford End collectively grumbles when his name is announced on the teamsheet

Progress I suppose, was on loan at Gillingham.

Typical tinpot Skate behaviour.

I agree, they’d be more concerned about Fellows, Azaz and Scienza.

Would be. Scrote certainly celebrated when he scored for Ipswich at SMS last time in this division. Mind you, we were on that horrific September sequence under Martin.

It was up around 40 and unlike Chelsea we aren’t racking, stacking and loaning out for values to increase. Unsustainable for medium-sized clubs like Saints.

Contingent on different windows and time zones (Edozie, Aribo esp) it could be a net 13 gone even with 9 in. Needed to be with the sheer size of the squad. When they can’t fit in one changing room that tells it’s own story.

Would make sense. PS - your username sounds like a range of environmentally-friendly range of snacks Sainsburys would stock.

Outs - Dibling, Fernandes, BBD, Ramsdale, Taylor, Bree, Taylor, Lumley, Sulemana, Onachu, probably Aribo next week, Lallana retiring, Lesley, Gronbaek, Sugawara, KWP, Larios, ABK, SAA, Bednarek. Possibly Edozie tbc, possibly Smallbone. Ins - Long, Jander, Mads, Jelert, Fellows, Scienza, Quarshie, Downs, Azaz

And definitely no graffiti saying ‘Fuck the NF’ on the underside of the Itchen Bridge, Woolston in the early 1980s,

Hopefully other teams in the Championship will be getting a Scienza lesson this season. Should enhance the chemistry within the group.

Makes a difference to the Beats by Dre earphones you normally see the players wearing I suppose.

And furthermore, what is the point of just dropping Michael Salisbury for one game? How does that help bring him and most of the others up to some form of standard? John Brooks is no better. Astonishing that such inept people are allowed to get this far in their profession. Referees also need to be stronger and more assertive. Funny how Chelsea benefit both weeks isn’t it? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/ce93l9j0xk8o

Two of Reform’s finest in action https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx27xj85y5lo

He’ll go though because 12 months of contract to go and doesn’t fit Still’s system. Good player, just not physically independent enough to win battles in a midfield two. Bree and Taylor almost certainly, Taylor to Boro was the rumour, BBD went to Derby today. Aribo will be targeting Saudi and if that fails move to Turkey. Fits with Blackmore’s 4-5 out.

Probably more likely, wondered where the Doumbia rumour had come from though.
