Saint Garrett

Not sure I agree. We lose the link between the DM's and front players when Davis doesn't start. Having said that, Norwich would be the ideal game for us to trial a front 4 of Rickie, Lallana JRod and Gaston. We're going to have a lot of the ball I would think. However I fully expect is to start with Davis and bring on Gaston second half.

Swansea ain't going down. No chamce

Got this reply this morning on email.. Hopefully they can make more progress

My 4g connection always works in SMS!!

Same as yesterday but Wanyama in for Cork if he's not fit. Would start Clyne against Redmond. Have to be aware of Snodgrass the diving pr!ck but should have more than enough to beat these lot. They're not very good and going down. Great opportunity to get back to wining ways at home 3-0 Saints

Get him signed up long term. He'd be a huge miss to us. Personally think he's top class and another English lad.

We have no one else. Gallagher is nowhere near good enough at present.

Shaw clearly MOM today. Was excellent.

A winning performance, certainly not a classic. Palace fans are fecking irritating!!

we'll be in Balham Bowls club. Nice pub opens at 12 though so might Nip for a pint in spoons before.

Where is everyone drinking ? Think we're going to go to Balham.

Yeah. That's farcical. I could just about accept £50 last year, first game in season, first game since champions. This season that's a joke though.

Yup good shout, he's a decent keeper

Personally think it'll be Norwich, Fulham and Cardiff. Redmond Possibly Hooper? But can barely get in their side ATM. No one else I can think of really.

Wtf?!? Why so much? That's a disgrace. Unfortunately I've already decided I'm going and making a weekend out of it so just going to have to grin and bear it.

I always get more confident the closer it is to kick off! Think we'll have too much for them, with a top performance from Ads to top off a great week for him. 1-2

It's the same person mate!

Is that not their kit for last year? Remember thinking at the time how good it would look in R+W!

Basic maths? Academy costs was less than it costs for someone to buy the players from us? From a business sense - profit. From a footballing sense, proud to see these players come through at OUR club. If we get 2/3/4 years out of them as well then they've given us a good service as well. Would you rather we signed a 28 year old for 5m who is average (thats how much it costs to buy a very average prem player these days), or bring a 18 yr old through who basically costs the club nothing who is a great talent.

I think if there is a good chance to give Gaston an opportunity, it's against a side who we're going to have a lot of the ball against. But I do think Davis is underrated on here. He's very important to us when we don't have the ball and pressing. Palace will attack us down the wings with pace and power in Ince and Bolasie, so I do worry a bit about our defensive frailties down the wings with Gaston and JRod either side.

Spurs tickets now on general sale.

He has had a great season tbf.

1. Lallana 2. Lovren 3. Shaw

Lambert is our talisman and is coming towards the end of his career. Personally I'm not sure there should be any players who are still playing on the banner, but Morgan and Lallana could be argued to go up there. If Lallana sticks with us for the whole of his career, then he's up there with Le Tiss for me.

I remember Pahars playing, that may have been a Euros though?
