No Premier League games postponed due to a brief period of rain on the day of the game are extremely rare. Pitches in 2024 are well drained compared to the past. The weather tomorrow isn't that bad (BBC weather says light rain from midday), especially as there hasn't been much rain this week to saturate the pitch.

Why have you written him off as a 'dud'?

Nonsense Sport Republic have invested a lot of money, Gao didn't invest a single penny. Saints have spent a lot of money this summer and in their previous PL season under Sport Republic. The Alcaraz replacement has already been signed. Göztepe and Valenciennes doing well benefits Saints and vice versa. So helping them, helps us.

Jokes are supposed to be funny. So it was easy to miss... as it wasn't!

It'll be one or the other, not both.

Fernandes is probably the Alcaraz replacement.

Rasmus Ankersen negotiating the Mateusz Lis transfer from Saints to Goztepe

He was injured.

Only in friendlies

Shuffling money between Sport Republic bank accounts.

Who are you talking about?

Are you going to take them up on the offer?

Klingons on the starboard bow!

He is given info from the numerous agent contacts he has.

No expense spared for Mateusz Lis, Saints sending him on EasyJet to rejoin Goztepe.

I doubt he'd cost much and Saints can blow Feyenoord out of the water on wages. Atlético Madrid reportedly made a bid of €2.5m for him earlier this summer which was rejected. So if that is the starting point on negotiations an agreed price isn't going to be out of our reach.

No journalist has mentioned prices yet. That'll come in time.

There is solid interest it appears... https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1826223342241919117 https://x.com/telegraaf/status/1826215109716238395

There has been no Saints link to Rui Patrício, multiple reliable sources have linked Saints to Justin Bijlow.

Looks unlikely given the Justin Bijlow news

Still doesn't make it his fault. He clearly impressed enough in those seasons to return to the PL in big money moves and for a title challenger like Arsenal. Plus he has since those times been first choice for a PL title challenger (until recently) and is 2nd choice for England. He would be a massive upgrade on McCarthy. (In FM25 terms... he'd be our best player!)

So what? Niemi was relegated with us and many view him as one of our best ever keepers. Lallana and Schneiderlin were relegated to League One. Lavia and Livramento were relegated with us. Relegation doesn't mean every individual was the issue, not good enough or tainted.
