I do. Previous seasons it's been "no-one will leave that we don't want to". The language is totally different.

I love how they call him a Van Dijk replacement just to keep up the line that VVD is/has gone... I also love how they say that Stephens future is secure with a five year deal then in the same sentence say that Van Dijks future is in doubt...even though he has the same amount of time left.

I think the vast majority of us are OK with Van Dijk leaving next summer, bar a miraculous top 4 finish or a top 6 +cup win.

I love Yoshida, I think he was fantastic. Sadly Stephens development is more important to us.

I guess that's the biggest downfall of using such a statistic oriented system - countries and leagues with poor coverage will not turn up as much data for you to sift through.

Likely scenario is Van Dijk and Stephens first choice this season with Bednarek rotating in for cup games/christmas pile up, sell Van Dijk next summer for £60million and then have Bednarek and Stephens as first choice.

We haven't sold him yet? You'd add Clyne to a list that already has Clyne? I'd be quite happy with McQueen as first choice next season. Needs to be given the chance at some point.

That's exactly what he is saying. I'd rather see us finish lower and actually enjoy the games than finish midtable and be bored to death. I'd be quite happy finishing higher in the table if I wasn't paying for the season ticket and train fare from Weymouth though.

I hope Sky and BT announce the first batch nice an early.

Why not do that but keep the halves the same length? Why do you need to cut them down. Also hate the idea that you can't score from a rebound on a penalty - a penalty is essentially just a free-kick in the box, once it's taken play has resumed.

In much the same way Koeman was settled doing a good job. Everyone has ambition to advance.

Howes failings have been identifying top level signings - our scouting network and reduced managerial responsibility in that area should free him up to shine. Really hope we make him an offer he can't refuse.

Have to admit, I'm curious to see who the media department have decided to cast as the villain...having someone from Liverpool portrayed as a thief probably wouldn't go down to well with them!

Well I would have supported him another season but not massively disappointed. Only reason for us to wait so long is because we've actually got someone lined up now...

I didn't explain myself well - the video is definitely for the kit, I just don't think the shirt the characters in it are wearing is meant to resemble it.

Lack of capital? Plus the two locations - ground and waterfront development - would increase each others revenue if closely linked.

I think that video isn't meant to tease the kit...it's a little strange in all honesty, I didn't know what it was and thought we were launching a Southampton FC childrens superhero cartoon.

If the partners are single, crack on. If the partners are with someone else, the girls are slappers and the blokes are c*nts, not lads.

Nope, but then you wouldn't judge a players season long performance from the first 12 games of the season, so lets not judge his performance for us as a whole based on just one season.

Mental. We'd cum in our pants if we signed the player with the 4th most assists in the Prem over the last 3 seasons, but we can't - because he already plays for us.

A footballers past always skews his current value. Even if he has a mediocre season next season, he'll still be worth upwards of £30million.

Yeah, I find it hard to believe that he was ringing and messaging her non-stop the day after a p*ss up, 1. He would have been hanging out his arse and 2. He would have realised what a munter she was and what a lucky escape he'd had.

Fair play to Bianca Austin, that facebook review of "rissy" (wtf kind of name is that) was brilliant.

That is mental. Him and Tadic moved to this country in the same summer - as pointed out above, in that time Tadic has the fourth highest amount of assists. What has Markovic done since then?

Get tae f*ck, there is absolutely no way.
