Saint Garrett

I call him Prow'se....I think the commentators just werent very good. They called Guly 'Julie' and also called Guly 'Clyne'!!

Been impressed with our signings and the players will only get better. My only question would be that I'm not sure how comfortable J-Rod looked on the left. Looked a lot more comfortable when he came inside.

I simply cannot understand any fan who is saying Walcott isn't good enough for us and has no end product. crazy. Ok I'm not sure I'd want us to spend 100k/week and 15m on him, but still is a different level to any player we have.

http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/arsenal-plot-raid-on-southampton-for-teenage-1183333 Arsenal back in for him...although not a very detailed article.

Don't need him anyway, we've got JWP!

VS CELTIC AJAX: Vermeer, van Rhijn, Alderweireld, Blind, Dijks, de Jong, Anita, Lukoki, Serero, Fischer, Sigthorsson Subs: Ebecilio, Klaassen, Schone, Ozbiliz, Koppers, Ligeon, Veltman, Denswil, Cillessen

I read something somewhere(cant remember where now) saying that in england youth we play on quite big pitches early, so basically the bigger kids who can kick the ball further and run quicker are the ones that get picked rather than the ones who have good technical ability. Would it be worth playing small sided games up until a later age rather than forcing 11 a side on a kid who is 12? I'm not very good at football, but when I was about 11/12 I used to play in defence for my village, for the soul reason that I could kick the ball quite a long way. Im sure there are other ways to be brought up improving touch and ability, like playing small sided games, playing football with a tennis ball and other stuff like that. Good to see that we seem to be looking at the system and changing it, however I'm not convinced its going to work with this. Surely it will just end up with lots of players coming into the academies but then dropping out when they're not good enough. I guess the idea is to bring then better ones through, then cast off the ones who arent good enough and these are the ones who will go and play in the lower leagues.

Sounds like Biyik favours a move to AC Milan (why wouldnt he?). Sounds like a bit of a CB rock, strong, quite young but I guess he must have good feet or Adkins wouldn't be interested I doubt.

When has 4 ever been a right sided attacking midfielder ? I see the old fashioned way to be... 1 2,6,5,3 7,4,8,11 9,10 For me the player with 4 is generally a deep lying CM while the 8 is more attacking.

I'm sure we watch plenty of games all the time and nothing comes of it, I wouldn't get your hopes up!

England only probably have 2 world class players, Rooney and Ashley Cole. And Rooney rarely plays well for England.

I think I've only heard of Anita, Alderweireld and Jong.

They've only reached 3 pages on their forum....we're normally hitting 20+ before it's been announced !!

Glad to hear he's gone, we've surpassed his ability, but thank him for the part he played. Hopefully it means we're on the verge of bringing in a new LB.

There is this one still running from last year. http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.php?38915-SaintsWeb-PREMIER-LEAGUE-Fantasy-football-2012-13&highlight=saintsweb+fantasy+football 58525-19878

http://www.thefirstrow.eu/watch/132572/1/watch-southampton-fc-vs-ajax.html Also would have thought Channel 5 will have it available to watch. If not then on here http://www.tvcatchup.com/channels.html

Despite this he's also twice the player Harding is. If we had Harding playing at LB last season, I would go as far as saying we probably wouldn't have been promoted.

I see WHU have been awarded it this morning.

Sound pretty certain...interesting. Especially on the day which it sounds like Harding is joining Forest...

Something for their fans to bang on about for another few years.....still banging on about the fact they won the world cup. budgies.

Seaborne is ok when we're winning and knocking it round the back, but when we have a team attacking us he is absolutely woeful. I would rather bring in 3 CB's, get rid of Seaborne and have Stephens as our 5th choice...or even bring in one and have Stephens as our 4th.

Good if they work though! Just be nice to see him have a shot every now and again. If you're a good free kick taker then you can do it at any level. No reason why wouldnt get a few if he shot. Not many keepers would have saved that one, was an absolute peach.

Where has that capability gone? Lucky if he shoots these days !

Think they'd be better off with Dickson myself.

Didn't realise we had already stayed up next season !?
