Send in an another offer "over the next two days"?! Don't the club realise that everyone works around the clock in the lead up to the window SLAMMING shut? Get it done already FFS!

7 days, 21 hours, 43 minutes, and 19 seconds until the window SLAMS shut... Tick tock...

Defo the sort of tenacious player we need. Good call. Bring him home!

ITK or hunch?

Which four matches would that be then...? 🤦🏻

Agreed... It always pays dividends being positive about Saints at the start of the season... You don't get to look foolish that way.... Ah....

Worrying signs indeed... that Still could be as inept as Martin...

You know you're not supposed to respond to contrarians, don't you...?

He could always do what he did whenever we played Leeds in our championship season, i.e. largely abandon 'Russball' for one match only....

Cheers for the reminder.... Note to self: add popcorn to shopping list.

Hark... The clunk of Fabrice's laptop lid as he waits another week to post his "told you so" missive...

I'm saying nothing....

GOOOOOOOAAAAAALLLLLL!!!

Players in our 2011/12 promotion squad who were better than the equivalent players in our current squad: Kelvin Davis Bartosz Bialkowski Jose Fonte Morgan Schneiderlin Jack Cork Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain Dean Hammond Richard Chaplow Jason Puncheon James Ward-Prowse Adam Lallana Billy Sharp Rickie Lambert David Connolly Any I've missed...?

Damn... I had good money on @Lord Duckhunter being the author of this thread.... ☹️

What size?

We're talking about people's hunches here which, by definition, isn't based on 'facts' or 'sample sizes'. Your hunch is that our strikers are good enough; other people have the opposite hunch. Having the opposite hunch to yourself isn't "reactionary". Out of interest, what number of games do you view as a "big enough sample size"?

And makes your spelling look shite....

We're already the most creative team in the league...

Did Still say after the match that it's not the quality of our forwards that is the issue but the quality of the supply they are getting (or words to that effect)? But doesn't this stat suggest the opposite?

What aspects of the previous windows that our owners have overseen give you confidence that they'll get it right the 6th time of asking (or however many it's been)...? (Yes, I know you'll cite Spors as being the different factor this time around, which is fair enough, but guess which geniuses employed him....)
