Matthew Le God

The worst bit is the reason he left him out. He left him out of team of the week, because he wasn't impressed with him in different weeks! He doesn't even understand how team of the week works!

No it isn't at all. If player plays for a club's academy teams for a few seasons that makes him in part a product of that academy. Sure he is also a product of Plymouth's as well, but he played for Saints under 18s academy team and the under 21 academy team.

Stephens played for Southampton's academy teams at under 18 and under 21 level (IIRC it was before it changed to under 23s). So that makes him an academy product of both clubs.

The 24 year old

Who do you mean? 24 year old Harry Lewis?

Rasmus was also at the game... Martin Semmens, Dragan Solak, Katharina Liebherr, Henrik Kraft, Rasmus Ankersen & Matthew Crocker

Aymeric Laporte complaining the St Mary’s pitch is small! When it has exactly the same dimensions as the pitch at the Etihad Stadium! 🙄 There is no bigger pitch than St Mary’s in the PL, the majority of the pitches are the same size.

You have answered your own question! 😉

It isn't a town... it is a city. It isn't small. The city itself is 300k and the Tyneside conurbation is 900k (8th largest in the UK)

Very strange leap you've made there!

This isn't about the 50s and 60s.

It is a big 'if' true. None of us know. Doing some good things doesn't remove the bad. Your comparison to Prince Andrew and the Queen is nonsense and flawed. The issue isn't 'guilty by association', it is an accusation of knowing about it but not acting. That hasn't been the case for your example. It isn't an insult to Leon Crouch.

How have you come to that conclusion about this story? Would be a very strange one to just make up. It is very different from making up a transfer rumour.

Have you read the reasoning? If true then it taints Ted Bates' legacy significantly.

Frankenstein is the name of the scientist, not the monster 😉😇

Simon Peach follows me 🤔

Dean Jones is also followed by Jordan Sibley, Ross WIlson and Jeremy Wilson.

I'd rather have Stuart Armstrong in that role than McGinn.

Saints haven't spent that. It was £300k, rising to £1m. If he leaves he won't ever meet the conditions for the fee to reach £1m as they are likely to be for 1st team related achievements.

When has he ever played in that role effectively?

If he signed for Saints on a permanent deal I think it would be likely he'd get a big wage increase compared to his current Chelsea deal. A first team regular at Saints would earn more than the position Broja was at Chelsea at the time of his new deal in the summer.
