Why were you ashamed of the moronic actions of people you aren't responsible for? They just happen to have chosen the same sports team to support... they don't represent you, so you have no need to be "ashamed".

Koeman stated in an interview that although that the club were already tracking the players. He just happened to agree having also seen them.

Koeman and Pochettino had notably different teams. Pochettino didn't work with... 1) Forster 2) Bertrand 3) Cedric 4) Alderweireld 5) van Dijk 6) Romeu 7) Tadic Mane 9) Pelle 10) Long and others...

Really? Man Utd, Man City, Liverpool, Spurs, Arsenal & Chelsea is 6 teams. Hard to see 4 other teams finishing higher than us to stop us being in the top half of the table. Who do you think they'd be? We should really be aiming for a top 8 finish for the 5th year in a row!

Being paid a multi million pound contract for your job and if sacked receiving a huge payoff?

If you think this squad will be near a relegation battle then your ability to judge player quality is misguided.

If an ex-player curse really exists, then why not apply it to both clubs...? Southampton 3 (Long x3) West Bromwich Albion 3 (Rodriguez x3)

A little perspective needed perhaps? Saints aren't a very poor side, lots of good players at the club with a large number of current/recent internationals. The early to mid 80s and 2013 to now are the two top flight golden ages for the club in it's 132 year history!

James, Lord Duckhunter didn't say McCarthy "would" be worse... he said he "could" be worse. They is a significant difference between the two statements. I get people aren't happy with Forster (I don't particularly share that view), however to just think McCarthy automatically would be an improvement is flawed. As Lord Duckhunter has stated, they have very little in the way of evidence to think McCarthy would be an improvement.

I don't really see how being Skybet's favourite constitutes as "news". All it takes is a few QPR fans to put a bet on him rejoining and the odds shorten, doesn't mean there is any truth to it. I very much doubt they could pay any where remotely near the wages Saints are paying him.

Quicker than us. Lost it less than us. And had a goalie ten times ours, even after injury. Nonsense. Forster really isn't as bad as you and others make out. Yes, he makes the occasional mistake but you overlook all the good things he does and focus on the occasional error. Selective memories!

I think you must have watched a different game to me! They look extremely defensive and limited technically. Just putting huge numbers of players behind the ball isn't impressive.

Hojbjerg is not playing in an attacking midfield role. He is alongside Ward-Prowse in a midfield pairing in the 4-2-3-1. Jake Hesketh is playing as the central attacking midfield player of of the 3 in the 4-2-3-1.

That is a double negative and thus cancels out! If you "don't want neither"... then you do want one of them.

Not really... it is the Express that had the story. All the others are simply rehashing the Express in their rumour roundup by saying "the Express says...". That isn't the same as them all having the story. The Express is one of the least reliable sources of football news.
