When Saints were the 10th top scorers in the Premier League?

First half was... K.Davis Chambers Lovren Yoshida Shaw Schneiderlin Wanyama Ramirez Rodriguez Lallana Lambert Second half was... Boruc Chambers Fonte Hooiveld Shaw/Fox Cork Ward-Prowse Puncheon S.Davis Do Prado Mayuka It was better in the first half with more of the players that will start against West Brom playing. But even in the 2nd half Saints did have a number of chances.

The second half was largely our reserve team, apart form Boruc and Shaw.

Saints to come out to this next season...

Rodriguez running at Lugano will be interesting.

Not sure what theory you are talking about. Humans didn't evolve from apes, but they do share a common ancestor.

Is Paul Merson to blame?

So you don't believe in innocent until proven guilty? Whilst that is how he should be viewed, signing him for big money before his trial is a huge risk.

The BBC say... http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/23548760

They will still have a team next season, they will have a large points deduction.

They've arrived at the St Mary's reception...

Gazzaniga doesn't count either.

These 5 don't... Ward-Prowse Chambers Shaw Gazzaniga Isgrove

They were probably trying to find a buyer earlier in the summer, couldn't find anyone interested enough to take on his wages at Saints and so released him by mutual consent.

Because he is a WUM.

A lot of our players would be sellable if relegation happened. The likes of Wanyama, Ramirez, Lovren, Shaw, Schneiderlin, Clyne, Rodriguez etc would be snapped up before any Championship wage decrease was required. It is a young squad and would raise a large amount.

That might be difficult... [video=youtube;DGaUjQp5-3E]

So what? It is an indication that Saints may have been looking for right backs earlier in the summer - which was the point I was making. But now after 4 weeks of Chambers with the 1st team, Pochettino has decided he is good enough.

Because its not a rumour and it is a basic regulation of football transfers.

Possibly a reference to this... http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/southampton-target-jesus-gamez-transfer-1899854

He plays at centre back for Saints.

Clyne a possible injury doubt for the start of the season...

Southampton FC ‏@SouthamptonFC 2m Pochettino: "Calum has shown in his performances in pre-season that he is more than capable of performing at this level." #saintsfc Suggests he is the back-up for Clyne.

£22.67m is more than £22m.

Even if those figures from that site were true over all the other sources showing lower fees, only the Ferdinand one is more than the reported £22.67m for Damiao.
