Little article from Steven Davis talking about a few of our youngsters....whats the Milk Cup? http://www.colerainetimes.co.uk/sport/football/milk-it-says-davis-1-4974801

Cork signed a 4 year deal at the start of last season, so has the same amount of time to run as Lallana did.

Keep an eye out here...http://www.wiziwig.tv/broadcast.php?matchid=195963&part=sports It will be streamed somewhere.

I completely agree and I fully expect him to honour that pre-contract agreement, however it's not definite until he signs on his birthday!

Boruc and Shaw please....maybe even Corky ?

Signed a 4 year deal in L1 I thought?

As title... @SouthamptonFC: Southampton Football Club is delighted to announce that Adam Lallana has signed a new five-year contract. #saintsfc http://t.co/eEhaCGa3bT

Ag Ag Ag, bless em! To be fair my dislike of West Ham mainly comes from my group of mates who are all West Ham apart from one, who is a Chelsea fan. Had to deal with abuse all year about it, so about earned the right to give it out a bit now we're above them. Add the fact that I truly despise Allardyce and his tactics, and also my most hated footballer is Kevin Nolan, it all adds up to a bit of hatred. I do like Jarvis and Tomkins, and Noble I like, but the rest of their side is pretty poor. Vaz Te can be a handful but is normally pretty in and out of games.

Can't see them scoring twice...think it will be 3-1 saints or 1-0 whu.

Good to see they've made an everlasting impression ......It's aap!!

True, but don't fancy Gaston putting in a performance with Nolan et al booting him every 5 minutes. Think we'll start with the same team as Sat if everyone is fit. Only change I could imagine is Lallana for Gaston.

If those 3 out, I don't think we'll win. Rodriguez has been superb for us in recent weeks and fits Poche's style so well. Especially if Puncheon is out as well, that means it'll be Lallana/Davis/Gaston most probably. And Fox, well we all know about Fox's limitations...!

He was good in those games Vs Madrid, but pretty poor in a lot of others. I agree he will improve but I think people just don't think he is that good now. I'm sure a lot believe he will be good in a year or so as long as he continues to get games.

@SouthamptonFC: Mauricio Pochettino: "I am comfortable with how the team is playing, but a manager is never really relaxed." #saintsfc @SouthamptonFC: MP: "It's a really big game against @whufc_official. We're aware that they are a very strong team, fitness-wise and physically." #saintsfc @SouthamptonFC: MP: "We've watched the video of our game against them earlier in the season, and we've analysed their last five games." #saintsfc @SouthamptonFC: MP on Jay Rodriguez: "All players need time to develop their game, and realise what emotional spark gets the best out of them." #saintsfc @SouthamptonFC: MP: "In the two months that I've been here, I think Jay Rodriguez has developed a lot. He has great potential." #saintsfc @SouthamptonFC: MP: "Getting one victory is amazing, but to get four would be out of this world. It would be good news for everyone connected to this club." @SouthamptonFC: MP: "We want to win the maximum number of points between now and the end of the season to finish as high as possible." #saintsfc @SouthamptonFC: MP: "With the change from winter to 'less winter', some players have struggled to adapt. They have bugs so they might be a doubt." #saintsfc

We wont be able to afford anyone who is better than Cork and Morgan IMO.

In what way ?

You cant just say that !!!

See an updated table has been released... http://www.premierleague.com/en-gb/matchday/fair-play.html

Still not effective enough to play as one of the DM's though is he. I mean he is a cracking talent, but he's still got a lot of learning to do if he is going to play in one of those 2 positions. He's more attacking and likes to go chasing after the ball. No surprise our season turned around as soon as we had Morgan and Cork back together.

Oh, I watch us play, and also realise we are still in a relegation fight, albeit I expect us to stay up. Morgan has 1 year premiership experience and he's a world class player ? You need to try some objectivity when watching players from other teams that you believe are overrated.. which is anyone playing for another team the way you go on. I think Morgan is absolutely class. I love watching him play and think he is one of the best midfielders at what he does in the league. Yes I'm probably bias, but thats only because I watch us week in week out.

McCartney is absolutely dreadful, Id put him in a 'worse than box' bracket...

I see no reason why we can't push on next season as long as we keep this squad together, and add a few quality additions. Spurs is a good model to follow IMO. A few years ago they were a team who finished bottom of the tophalf on a regular basis. Yes obviously they're a bigger club than us, but they have a good model to follow.

Hahahaaa!!! Very much coming from someone who clearly didn't watch the two teams last season then ! Even West Ham fans would probably agree they grinded out promotion and we were very much the 'class' team. I do very much agree with Pilchards. First goal will decide it, we can't give them something to hold on to. We get an early first goal and it could be a rout, but if not, they could easily nick a goal or two.

Isn't this why Man Utd have just had a huge training ground sponsorship deal? And Man City got their stadium sponsorship from Etihad ?
