Matthew Le God

Because he signed for Southampton the day before they left, having been on tour abroad with Celtic. He'd have things to sort out beforehand and has now joined up with them. No big deal really.

Saints are being linked with strikers for around £20m in a bracket (or two or three) up from Hooper. There is a reason newly promoted Hull and newly relegated QPR want him, he isn't at the level Saints want any more.

A 1st team Premier League player that cost £12.5m to be on only £30k p/w would be unusual.

He turned down Cardiff because he became a father last week and wants to stay in the North West.

In Saints' 4-2-3-1 last season a lot of the width came from Clyne and Shaw playing very high up the pitch, when they push forwards Cork and Schneiderlin cover them.

They might not know to ask.

What are you doing with it? Emailing it to the club?

Think I might hide an old Saints shirt in the fish counter at Tesco. An eye for an eye.

For a start it is probably quite flammable!

No, its extremely unprofessional and pathetic. It also tarnishes the reputation of whichever company they work for if it hits the press, which is now likely. Most employers would take disciplinary action in such incidents, possibly even sacking those involved. It appears from Jordan Sibley's response the club aren't happy - and rightly so. For any Pompey fan reading this, imagine if it were the other way round (hard to imagine Pompey spending multi millions on infrastructure I know!) but how would you feel? Be honest.

If the people involved are lucky they will be sacked. If Mr Cortese finds them first... Don't mess with Nicola Cortese!

Anyone recorded it in case the idiots remove the self incriminating evidence from youtube?

Unprofessional and pathetic. Lets hope their employers throw the book at them.

The squad for the training camps in Spain and Austria... Adam Lallana Artur Boruc Calum Chambers Danny Fox Dejan Lovren Emmanuel Mayuka Guly Do Prado Jack Cork Jack Stephens James Ward-Prowse Jason Puncheon Jay Rodriguez Jordan Turnbull Jos Hooiveld José Fonte Kelvin Davis Lloyd Isgrove Luke Shaw Morgan Schneiderlin Nathaniel Clyne Paulo Gazzaniga Rickie Lambert Steven Davis Plus... Maya Yoshida - joining up this weekend Gaston Ramirez - joining up next week Victor Wanyama - joining up next week

50 goals in 106 games in the Spanish and Italian top flight isn't exactly poor. Over a 38 game season that would average about 18 goals. Only van Persie, Suarez, Bale and Benteke scored more than 18 goals last season in the Premier League.

This shows you how to do code on the forums... http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/misc.php?do=bbcode#videocode

He thinks he is Johnny Depp...

Not many players that can be... pretty much its Pablo Osvaldo.

No Eterna watch but a nice friendly hug from Pochettino..aww...

It isn't a % of who has the ball, it is a % of the league average for time with/without possession. The closer to the bottom right hand corner of the graph the better (although there are more factors to football than just this such as what you do with the possession you have and don't let the opposition do in the possession they have). Southampton (under Pochettino) being the lowest on the graph shows they are the best in the Premier League at reducing the average time the opposition have the ball due to tackling/intercepting. If they were to improve keeping the ball for longer they'd move towards the right of the graph.

He became a dad this week, I'd guess he doesn't want to move his young family to Cardiff, so won't want to move to us either. Probably wants to be near both his and his partners parents in the North West.

This is a very interesting read... http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11662/8820344/Pochettino-s-plans

Not in doubt. Yes.

That I agree with.
