Saint Garrett

Never been convinced with Arshavin. He's clearly talented but just never looks bothered. Not sure he's fit in the hard working philosophy.

Would be decent backup for cork and Morgan.

Morgan and Shaw, Lambert unlucky not to win it, but Morgan has been immense.

His mum's stopped doing all his washing for him or something....he is a right little moaner on Twitter.

The Norwich, Swansea, Fulham, Stoke, Wigan games were all 'dropped points'. Fulham away You could argue that we expected to lose to Man Utd, City, and Everton.

Only that bit from what I've heard. Still gobsmacked that Morgan doesn't have his name sung. Even if it's the sh!ttest song ever normally soem get their name sung !

Jay Rodriguez has one. the Luis Suarez song...(not like us to nick Liverpool songs )

Drew with Fulham at home ?

Pretty crazy how we weren't even bottom after 11 games with 5 points !

Thought this thread was going to be about David Connolly haha I'm sure there are a few clubs who have got relegated twice and then promoted back into the same division, but doubt it's happened with Premier League clubs. The only ones who have gone into Admin who have played in the premier league are Us, Pompey, Leeds, Palace, Coventry, Bradford, Ipswich, QPR, Barnsley, Derby....have I missed any!?

No I agree but we 'dominated possession' in our half and did bugger all with it.

After searching for 'best clubs in Southampton' on google, it sent me back to SaintsWeb!! Appreciate the post above by GB, I'm out on Saturday for a mates birthday and wondering whether there have been any changes since August 2011?

This. He's on a par with Redknapp.

All Fat Sam teams always crowd the keeper and used dirty tactics. Just something else that we have to deal with. Jos is going to need to have a good game and the team will have to make sure we keep the ball at every opportunity. Personally think his game could be decided on winning the second balls. We know the ball will be lumped to that fairy up top all game, but his touch is dreadful - Morgan and Cork are superb at just picking it off. Worth remembering last time we played them at their place, our team was... 31 Boruc 02 Clyne 03 Yoshida 05 Hooiveld Booked 06 Fonte 04 Schneiderlin Booked 08 S Davis (Ward-Prowse - 89' ) 20 Lallana 21 Guly 42 Puncheon (Mayuka - 65' ) 09 Rodriguez (Lambert - 65' ) Shaw will play, as will Cork and Lambert. 3 very important players for us this season. Ramirez might even start, although Lallana looked handy on Saturday and not sure Ramirez will be a able to perform in what will be a very physical game.

Lol. An ambition to break into the top 6 and we're talking about signing Phil Neville...

Lallana got booked there for diving in the 1-1 game, the same game where Billy Sharp 'dived'...

The sooner them and Stoke are relegated playing their 'brand' of 'football' the better.

Because the bookies thought we'd do the worst out of the promoted teams. And having just logged on on my PC, I can see that there is gaps....they don't come out on my phone! Got to say I'm surprised that Swansea were given a 42 - the same as Norwich and West Ham and worse than Reading !

I thought that then Chelsea are 55 with Man City on 6. Unless I'm reading it wrong...

I really don't think he is good enough for this league.

Don't suppose anyone recorded tonight's analysis? I missed it and always keen to hear what Neville's had to say.

No thanks, think I'd rather have sharp back. Reckon he'll go WBA if any prem team wants him.

Never thought I'd be lookin out for their games!!! Ha

Tbh I don't think there are many decent refs. The best ones are the ones you don't notice. The one on Saturday was pretty good, I don't even know who that was. Seem to remember the Chelsea game he was pretty good n all.

We're better than under Adkins. Can't argue with that. I really want us to beat those tossers on Saturday though and cement our place as the top promoted team at least.
