Markus had a broad smile on his face whenever I looked up towards the director's box - he looked genuinely proud and chuffed with his purchase. Looks to be a really humble chap.
He wrapped a saints scarf around his neck at the end and waved to the fans as if to say "this feels right".
I caught one of the "Welcome Markus" t-shirts that the players wore when coming onto the pitch and then threw into the crowd....a tad chuffed about that!
All in all, an encouraging performance by Saints....held their own in the first half but a combination of fitness, experience and Ajax raising their game in the second half was our undoing.
I would definately trade in Rasiak and Saga for a hungrier 'League 1 type' goalscorer. Both players still seem to be wearing their "I ought to be in a higher league' badge - I'd rather have one or two hungrier League 1 or League 2 strikers who are more likely to be prolific in this league.
