In guesstimated ballpark figures, Saints have spent c.0.5% of their income on 'insurance' for our centre back position, i.e. the acquisition of Caceres. I have also spent around the same ballpark percentage of my income on household insurance. I may not use the insurance but I'm glad I've got it...

Does Romeu's Premier League ban apply to the U23s? If not, then I guess he'll play to keep his match fitness levels up?

Got a few bites though, so mission accomplished

Not bad for a football club that's only been in existence for 5 years. Looking forward to the chuckles next season already

Ditto:)

I reckon we've possibly got the best midfield squad options in the premier league...

One of our performances of the season IMO, especially when you consider how many first choice players were unavailable. Yoshida MotM for me but special mention to Forster who had possibly his best match of the season and preserved our win in the end. Also plaudits to Clasie and Hojbjerg who filled in admirably for Davis and Romeu. 40 points reached and 4 points behind 8th with 2 games in hand. A very decent season. p.s. best match day thread of the season too

Forster again! Puts himself in the short list for MotM

Great save Forster!!

5 minutes added time? WTF?

Sorry

Forster noticably coming off his line more than usual in last few games

Anyone else noticing how much more pleasant this thread is compared to normal match day threads...?

Can see WBA getting an undeserved equaliser here.

A couple of odd subs there (on the surface)?

One of our best first halves this season. Very composed and totally bossed it.

Great save Forster

Tempting fate but we're looking very comfortable in midfield with our second string players

How is that not a yellow for Fletcher? (cue WG explaining how refereeing works... )

Similar to his goal at Arsenal

Get in!!!! A rocket from Clasie!!

...

Sad reading indeed. Shame that his career has just petered out over the last few years. Hope we can find some kind of role for him within the club when he hangs up his boots. We have a vacancy for a 'finding the back of the net' coach, don't we?
