Saint Garrett

I do like Welbeck, but it's not an excuse saying he hasn't scored because he plays on the wing. He plays in the same position as JRod and he scored 15? this year?

Reed did mention that they've had applicants from all over Europe who have won trophies etc. Champs league experience.....2+2....?

Bergkamp !?

Cba to read through pages, any news?

Vokes and Ings, both supported saints I believe. Jutkeiwvicz or however you spell it was too. Lallana is an Everton fan for some reason. JWP was a Pompey STH.

Lallana was given MOTM...

Just took off Matuidi and brought on Pogba, Cabaye has already been replaced - unlikely Morgan will get on I'd say.

Gone off injured...lol

I appreciate what he did here. Will probably get no reaction or a small clap from me.

Think we'll beat Italy. Our players would have to perform though. Would be tempted to drop Welbeck for sterling and Rooney for Barkley though.

Lallana and Rooney seem to keep making the similar runs, get Rooney off...!

Anyone mentioned Bendtner? I know he is a bit of a b3llend, but think he could be a decent signing on a free for us...

Reckon you might see Milner in there for Welbeck or Lallana in the Italy game, hopefully not though. Come on Adam! Get yourself a goal lad.

He wasn't even a starter was he? Although I guess e doesn't really fit with Pulis' style. He needs some training but he could be a good signing for someone. I'd take him depending on few and wages. Is he a free transfer?

Sherwood is an absolute embarrassment. No thanks. His style wouldn't suit us either. 2 banks of 4, big man little man up top, wingers, etc. Would be a massive change, when we are desperate for a bit of consistency right now.

Agree. You get some top strikers but also some shockers.

Rickie bought as a Liverpool starter? Can't see it...try already have to fit in Suarez, Sturridge and Sterling, If Rickie would start it would be in the middle of Suarez and Sturridge, and therefore they'd lose Sterling to the bench, I'm pretty sure Rickie has been brought in to add to their England contingent and add to their squad for their extra games they'll have this season.

Sidwell is pretty ****e, wouldn't touch him personally,

So chuffed for him - be great for him to get on the pitch!

I've not renewed. Had some other things to pay for so it was tight anyway, and the club selling Rickie, I decided to leave it. No doubt I'll go to all the games just buying a ticket on the day.

Who actually has any proof that he said that apart from hearsay!? Don't get me wrong, I'm sure that Adam wants to further his career, but no point having a go at the lad for wanting to leave a club that he has pretty much achieved all he can.

There's plenty of players at Man Utd or Liverpool who could improve our squad.

Pfft - only just got my "Lallana 20" England shirt through the post!!

Does this mean the points system will work now?
