Saint Garrett

I totally agree. I think he is a far better all round player, however the amount of articles i've read in relation to that comparison is ridiculous.

Just about as expected then! It's an easy answer which is already into the public domain so it's not going to get any kind of reaction!

I'd say that it probably depends on the tone of what's said. That could be read either way IMO.

If you look through my posts I write a lot of posts which are not about you or not related to you in the slightest. I come on here to talk about Southampton, not read your sarcastic mind numbing comments.

Liked him as a player and has certainly played a part in getting us up the divisions. Remember when he came on at Oldham, he was absolutely superb, and had some brilliant link up play with Lambert/Lallana/Guly at the start of last season when we were steamrolling teams. I think TCM has summed it up however. If money is tight, then why would clubs risk paying him money when the liklihood is he'll be injured for atleast half the season. Would be a good acquisition for someone like Bournemouth.

People don't want to pay a fiver to have to sit and read Turkish's 'witty' replies. Him banging on about our fan base, Cortese, and fancy dress. Seem to be pretty limited with decent debate rather than sarcastic remarks.

Spot on, not everything has to be so serious.

Ergh god. Why would Lee get a go in front of any of Guly, J-Rod, Mayuka, Reeves, Davis, JWP. He has barely played since Jan/Feb, he only played for about 2 months before and scored what...1 goal?! I'm not writing him off, but if he's not getting in the first team squad, why would we suddenly throw him into start a game we need to hit the ground running? Also probably wouldn't have the understanding with the rest of the squad as he's not played.

It's clearly beyond you...

Another half decent thread ruined by Turkish...

No, I mean as in Nixon said it would be a bit of a surprise, and Rhys doesn't fit that, so no, it won't be him.

Don't think that would be a surprise to be fair, Rhys Williams is quality. If he didn't have so many injury problems he'd be a constant in a lot of prem teams.

It's day 21 on the BBC Advent calander today ! Turkish won't be happy.

I can certainly see a case for Guly to start, but personally think it will be same team as finished Reading. TDD, you seem to have got well on this bandwagon that Guly is the worst player to ever have had a contract and he kills children. Give him a break FFS he's done a decent job every time he's played this season.

I see the Echo have picked up on it. I'm sure they just get their news from this website!

Good post.

I said to Simon Peach on twitter that he's probably out a month or 2 so can hardly expect the club to confirm it and give the oppo the heads up. He replied with saying...I'm wrong and it will be a lot sooner than that.

No, I think it's more of a compliment to your usual posts that we thought that it might mean something!

No he's just trolling.

It's not up to Saints whether he was an agent though is it, it's up to the player. Would be very surprised if he doesn't have one.

How do you know he doesn't have an agent? I know he got rid of his, but would be very surprised if he hasn't got another one by now...

Ah, apparently 5m, my bad.

£4m.

They're still paying Sheff Utd for the whole Tevez saga. http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/football-league/coowner-david-gold-reveals-cost-had-west-ham-failed-in-promotion-bid-7770999.html http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2190605/Carlos-Tevez-transfer-saga-hurting-West-Ham.html
