It's almost like 2012 all over again.... https://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.php?39463-Transfer-window-bump-back-to-earth#.WmBnSqhl_dM

Hacked off that he's not been getting many chances at Chelsea this season and pushing for a loan move, so probably not in the best state of mind and/or match fit state? Similar demeanor to Gabbiadini recently I guess.

Yep... And he's just scored vs Norwich.... Let's do this Mr Reed....

Interesting first post in 3 years... #ITKwatch

Indeed, which is why I caveated my somewhat tongue-in-cheek post

[MLG mode]At the end of October we were top half of the table and 3 points behind 6th place Liverpool... [/MLG mode] (I know, I know.... stats blah blah stats...)

Fair point. Maybe they'll hang fire on rubber stamping the Carrillo deal until just after the Spurs game. Who knows (certainly not me!)

If that's a club-fed line then it signals to me that they'll wield the axe after the Spurs game, assuming that ends in a heavy defeat...

Any idea when in March? Could be the difference between him missing 6 more games or 10 more. Cheers

With his good friend "Dalian Wanda"? Where's Richmond Saint when we need him?

Chomp chomp chomp

Thinking out loud..... If Theo is definitely keener to come here than Everton (in principle), is there not scope for coming up with some kind of deal whereby he comes here on loan until the end of the season and then automatically becomes a permenant deal if/when we stay up. Isn't that a win-win for both us and Theo? (I also can't see it being a 'bad' deal for Arsenal either as they can still sell him elesewhere in the summer if we get relegated.... unless his value drops in the meantime but can't see how it would do so significantly)

So he doesn't think he's good enough to help turn our season around....?* (*asked rhetorically with tongue firmly in cheek as I know the response to the question is: "yeah, but it doesn't matter how good the players are when we've got a manager who doesn't exploit their strengths")

Agree that it would have to be Hojbjerg as things stand

It might work a bit like this...? (benefit of the doubt and all that malarkey )

Do we know why he's only played one game for Celtic this season?

McCarthy Cedric - Hoedt - Stephens - Bertrand Romeu - Lemina - Hojbjerg Boufal - Tadic Long Bench: Forster, Bednarek, Pied, JWP, Davis, Sims, Gabbiadini (assumes Yoshida is still injured) Result 2-2 (Long, Sims) Meanwhile, back on planet Earth....

This article from May 2017 (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2017/05/17/southampton-chairman-stresses-saints-stability-admits-claude/) talks about Reed and Semmens (along with Krueger) forming the "club board". And indeed, Companies House shows Semmens and Reed joining 'Southampton Football Club Limited" board soon after (here: https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/00053301/filing-history), however this recent announcment is for the holding company, i.e. "St Mary's Football Group Limited". So, I think this is different to the announcement of their appointments last year (to the football club board) but not sure if there's any significance in them also being appointed to the parent company board 6 months or so later. Probably not, but thought it might be worth a mention.
