Saint Garrett

Would be excellent if one of them came through....a position we've never had much luck bringing through a youngster - difficult to bed them in there.

Hmmm....where does he play? I saw he's been training with the first team. Barely heard anything about him either..!

Bit **** copying someone else's song, and it's Ozil - not Giroud....rather we came up with something a bit more interesting than just copying West Ham's effort. Ideally not more of "Ooooooo {First Name} {Last Name}"

I'd be tempted to drop Mane....however Im not sure he will be. Similar team, but think Austin will start instead of Long, would be harsh to drop Romeu as he was excellent Tuesday, however not sure we need both VW and OR against West Ham.

We are not worthy!!!! :adore:

I've got quite a few West Ham mates, so big game for me personally. Noble should be in the England squad, Carroll is amazing, Payet is better than Ozil, Song is the best DM in the league,and they have the best fans in the world.....

Think we're aiming for "The Library", or we went to the "Twelve Pins" last year which is a nice pub....got the day off tomorrow so will be up there a bit earlier than expected! Should be a good game...would go: Forster Cedric VVD Fonte Bertrand Targett Mane Wanyama Clasie Tadic Long Austin to be the match winner for the second week in a row

I think he'll be a class signing for Stoke.

£13m for a player who has only ever played in the Championship......mental.

West Ham could buy him. Cost £25m+ probably, although he's had a poor season this year so far. They could easily finish above Man Utd, and possibly above Leicester and Spurs depending on how they do between now and the end of the season. Payet is a class act.

He'll go in the summer.

Obviously done it on advice of the police. Fingers crossed I'll have enough to get one...!

Great signing for them - that.

Targett, Clasie or Long for me, whole team has played well though. Long edges it for me.

Think our business is done both ins and outs. Any rumours around I would expect are more long term solutions....

Atleast we know Victor will put in a MOM performance against them! He plays well against the top clubs!

What was Merteseckers? Professional foul?

Just out of interest, why is Mertesecker not suspended for our game....I thought straight red was automatically a 3 game ban? Not complaining, as he never seems to play well against us.

http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/jul/01/southampton-dani-osvaldo-terminate-contract It's about the same, they both cost about £25m to the club.

More expensive than Osvaldo?

Would quite like another wide player, but the club might decide that if we're going to play 5-2-2-1 then we don't need the wide player, and Targett can fill in there with Cedric on the other side. Think it would be a shame to lose Bertrand's attacking ability down the wing though.

I believe it gets moved to Saturday lunchtime if West Ham and Liverpool draw in the next round. (or Exeter) Might be wrong.

Not sure - he's already pretty old. Might keep him at West Ham with the new stadium n all.

Where?

TBF, They also got a transfer ban for the next two windows... As for English prem clubs being punished, I think the only one was City and they had their quota of players reduced in the champions league....
