The problem with paying "no more than £40k", you'll be buying players who are not good enough to play in this league, or certainly won't be yet. Be aware that Targett, Stephens, Gallagher are reportedly on more than £40k / week, and pretty sure that Bednarek will be earning more than that too. To sign players who are going to make a difference to our team, you're going to be paying them £60k minimum, unless they're coming from an obscure country and don't have anyone else in for them. Our problem with our wage bill, is that we have such a bloated squad, instead of having 20 players on an average of 50/60K, we've probably got more like 30.

Sanchez is awful, Nasri is meh, and Lanzini is a good player.

Yep - agree.

It is...but £50+ to see the "big boys" is just ripping your fans off. Quite a few ppl I know have already said they won't bother by the big sides, just go to the lower priced games. No-one should have to pay more than £40 to watch football.

He's normally CM in a 3, different to a CM in a 2.

Steeeeeeeeeeeeevvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeee. Remember him playing at Coventry away and thinking he looked good. Funny old player.

Cheers - have actually been a England Supporters Club member for ages, so will get my pals to sign up to that too.

No preference for Saints STH?

Certainly need to think about giving Hojbjerg a new contract, assuming he'll sign one, or we may need to look to get rid this summer if we want decent money for him...? Same with Redmond

I don't want to lose, as all my mates are West Ham fans. Hoping for a good game, with some goals, and 3 points. COYS

No idea how he can do it on 4 hours sleep a night, I'd struggle to perform at work let alone do an ironman!

Fair enough - was going to use that option, but will probably just use interest free credit card instead.

I like him, and would give him a new contract probably, but this is simply not the case. He is a nuisance, but a "top player" doesn't miss the chances he misses, and also they don't normally trip over their own feet as regularly as Shane does.

Makes more sense, difficult to say, The ones you'd need a season ticket to guarantee a ticket for, you'd probably need to go to at least 5 other aways anyway - so not sure it'd be worth it, but 150 for a ST is a no brainer

My point being if you're not going to go to all the home games, it's probably not worth spending £530 + just to go up the queue for away days.

Guess it depends on whether you're going to go to every home game?

Hopefully they get him signed up, along with Redmond.

When did that happen? Would be rubbish piece of business if we were to sell him. I'm not worried.

Yup we’ll be renewing, nice to have w bit of a positivity rather than dread when you think about next year.

Should be a good day out, just go and enjoy this one. We'll likely concede, probably more than once, and we might score 1 or 2. Might see us take the foot off the peddle a bit for this, with the confirmation of being safe. They're a decent side, and arguably should be doing better than what they have done this year. Would probably go with... Gunn; Valery Bednarek Vestergaard Yoshida Bertrand; JWP Romeu Hojbjerg; Redmond; Ings Bench: Forster Targett Stephens Armstrong Long Sims Lemina

Thought he was brilliant yesterday. He's a kid in his first season playing mens football, he's been quite incredible. He is obviously nowhere near the finished article, but he's already better than Cedric, and I have absolutely no worries about him being first choice next season. What a find.

Quite incredible. Janssen not a fan of that decision...

I'd keep Romeu & Long personally. And possibly Boufal if Ralph thinks he can get him playing - wouldn't be upset if he left though.

Alfie Jones I think, Vokins is a small blonde chap, not that that helps...! Match tickets are a joke for this game, £42 to watch Bournemouth. I regularly drag ppl with me but no-one showed any interest at that price. Have to do something about that next year or have many more season ticket holders. Given Bompey will likely sell out or already have, this may be one of the lowest "home" crowds of the season?
