Thats not new, current 1st and 2nd year Southampton scholars came from... Josh Debayo - Chelsea Chris Regis - Arsenal Richard Bakary - Chelsea Stuart Wilkin - Chelsea Harley Wilard - Arsenal Olufela Olomola - Arsenal

18 months earlier than the originally planned Summer 2022.

Bertrand is a key part of a defence that has only conceded 21 Premier League goals in 29 games. Best record in the league. Arsenal still look shaky at the back and Gibbs hasn't shone at all this season.

He is competing against Schneiderlin and Wanyama for a CM spot, and has been getting a good amount of game time in AM roles for someone his age towards the top of the league. If Schneiderlin or Wanyama were English they would also be getting call-ups. What do you mean by "international quality"? I'm guessing you actually mean "England international quality" as there are huge variations in the abilities of international footballers.

I wonder if there is a correlation between the people that can't see how good Ward-Prowse is and those that thought Wotton was better than Schneiderlin...? http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.php?12867-Schneiderlin-Saints-Biggest-Waste-of-Cash-Ever&highlight=schneiderlin+wotton#.VQoFHULKzpV

Who is? Jack Colback was called up recently and Ward-Prowse has more to his game than him.

Not really a surprise, despite what some on this forum think he is a very talented player and Hodgson has been talking of this possibility for months.

He is good at building aqueducts.

He has very good technique, ball control, good off the ball movement, speed whilst dribbling and an eye for a pass.

When Wanyama, Schneiderlin, S.Davis and Ward-Prowse are available its hard to see Reed making the match day squad of 18.

Aren't "jokes" meant to be funny and not the same stream of negative **** repeated on a loop for 6 years?

Why aren't the under 21's using McCarthy at right back in preparation for this then? The club actually appear to view McCarthy as a centre back.

Why is it shameful? Who would you not have on the bench to make way for him?

To be fair to Long, he is actually pretty good in the air. Has a bigger jump on him than Pelle, attacks the ball rather than waiting for it and wins headers against people you wouldn't expect he would. (I'm not advocating we do lump it up to him btw)

What about it? Its a Saints badge and Veho logo poorly edited onto an Adidas kit.

2pm today according to BBC Sport website.

Seattle Sounders...

Premier League clubs can't loan players in once the January window has shut. Football League clubs have a loan window which extends into March.

No they don't, the rules have changed. http://www.uefa.org/about-uefa/executive-committee/news/newsid=1999120.html

A hinderance to what...? Getting into Europe? Your "logic" is all over the place.

That may be the case, but you are jumping to conclusions if you think it is "clear".

I see no mention of a 15,000 minimum capacity in the Premier League 2014/15 handbook. Blackpool had a 12,000 stadium in the Premier League in 2010/11... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/blackpool/7764836/Blackpool-will-start-Premier-League-season-with-12000-stadium-capacity-says-chairman.html

Do we need this thread? That article makes no mention of Koeman to Liverpool, it is an article about Rodgers saying he wants to stay at Liverpool.

ART and the article headline have twisted the actual quotes a little. He also says in that interview.. "However, if my happiness is in another place [not Benfica], I have to move on."
