Saint Garrett

Who is that she is FIT !

Our first XI is as good as anys in the bottom half IMO. Our backups are adequate while not as good as the first 11, and anything over that are poor. But can only be expected of a promotion side in first season. This is how I would split them... Boruc, Clyne, Fonte, Yoshi, Forren, Shaw, Cork, Morgan, Gaston, Lallana, Punch, J-Rod, Lambert have all shown they are good enough to start in the Prem. Would say that Hooiveld, Fox, Davis, JWP, Chaplow, Guly, Mayuka, can all do a job when needed. Davis, Gazza, Richardson, Butterfield, Martin, Forte, Barnard, De Ridder, Lee aren't good enough IMO.

What was sung last night? We can have a good go at getting one going on Saturday.

Top source being?

I've never heard of him, but seeing as though they're screaming out for a bit of prem quality, it seems odd they've brought in a very young french player. Can't see him having much impact tbh.

I think Cortese thinks he's a better option to get more out of the current squad and also better to make the younger players progress. It's up to him really as he's in charge. Don't think he would have brought him in to get players from La Liga, then just not bother.

Did bugger all else though, I couldn't stand him when he played for us, so lazy. He did 3 things for us....get 2 headers at Arsenal and that o/h kick vs Spurs. Cracking goal.

Not sure about that, they're not paying that much for him are they? I'm sure they can put him back out on loan if necessary next season. Sure they'll be plenty of potential suitors for our Gazza as well.

Yes. Do it!

Why would he be no1 at Fulham when he's going to be a Stoke player ?

He will always be a Saints legend for me. Class player who kept us up in the late 90's.

Not sure when he was ever mighty?! He's an awful footballer who is about 36 now. Surprised anyone wants him.

Did we need to be? Arguably not. What would you rather, we went and bought a whole new team ?! Don't underestimate the power of continuity.

Because he is an absolute clown on here to **** people off.

Must suit Birmingham that, they get the money and keep the keeper.

What in 1 season go from promotion to top 6 of the prem and european football? It will take time, our players will grow and get better, why do you think we have assembled a relatively young side?! In the idea that they'll still be with us in a few years time playing some fantastic football. Yes it is a vision, but it's not just going to happen overnight is it?! If you want us to go spunk money on 'big names' go and support QPR.

Jesus christ. Why does everyone have to be amazing or awful on this forum. Name a better right back that is realistic for us to have bought. Clyne is a huge talent and cost bugger all. Yoshi started slowly but he cost 2m, and is more than good enough for us, he reads the game incredibly well. I'm guessing you don't go to many games going on your opinion.

What a player.

Gazza aint that bad, just not quite ready yet. And how can you possibly say the summer window was a failure ???? Boruc? Yoshida? Clyne? Davis? Rodriguez? Mayuka? 3 of which are guaranteed starters 2 that have played their fair share, and 1 who hasn't had much of a chance but looked promising !?? Tool.

No idea what he's like in real life but quality on FM! Who is Steeeeeevvvvveee Woodford ?

Completely different strikers tbf.

Probably on the same wage, but because tax is less he is earning less.

I don't think Sharp would have played very much at all. I don't think he would have done much when he has been on the pitch. Mayuka offers us something that we dont really have in the forward areas is pace. For whatever reason he hasn't really been utilised yet, but I can't think of many games where Sharp would have made a difference this year. He did a job last season, yes, but IMO he's not good enough.

Yeah, maybe, but Gaston isn't on anything close to £100k/week...
