I think Bella-Kotchap will start. I also wouldn't completely rule out Lavia starting either.

His name is Yan, not Jan 👍

4 of those goals were vs lower league teams. Scoring a hattrick vs 4th tier Newport County doesn’t mean you aren't out of your depth in the Premier League.

Yes, he lives in Kirby Sigston Manor House. It is not number 11.

He used to live above number 10, not 11 and he moved out even before he resigned... https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/rishi-sunak-chancellor-tax-downing-street-b2055370.html So he does not live or work in number 10 or 11 Downing Street.

It is a selling point, not an unique selling point.

It is Southampton's sales pitch to players, but it isn't a USP as it isn't unique.

Yup and will do this season as well it seems.

I just copied and pasted a scorers list. Which two are you saying aren't strikers? Brighton's and/or Havertz? In any case, the point stands even if you take them out of the list.

What counts as 'proven'? Che Adams scored a similar number of PL goals as the following last season... Gabriel Jesus 8 Kai Havertz 8 Leandro Trossard 8 Neal Maupay 8 Romelu Lukaku 8 Danny Ings 7 Che Adams 7

Thread needs a title change as he isn't chancellor any more! 👍

The original source...

I doubt the club or Bazunu, Bella-Kotchap & Lavia and their agents think they are 'squad signings'. The sales pitch to them would be join Saints and you'll be in the first XI and play in the Premier League extremely soon. I'd guess Bazunu and Bella-Kotchap will start vs Spurs and even Lavia might.

The hotel concierge might be worth asking! They know their stuff!

Prince William will be pleased England are level pegging with the Germans.

They managed to get £80m for Maguire!

Have you made that judgement based on 45 minutes of a friendly vs last seasons Champions League semi finalists after Mara had only a couple of training sessions with his new teammates? 🤔
