Norwich City lost 5-1 and 6-1 against Man City last season and finished 12th.

Please show me where I said "every game", I said "games" and that does not mean every game. It is not me that is wrong... it is you. Yet again Kraken, Turkish etc trying to restart an old argument with me. It is quite pathetic really. Grow up.

Not exactly an "if Carlsberg did football club ownership" moment... http://www.moneymarketing.co.uk/wrap-and-technology/avalon-reports-66000-pre-tax-profit/1056480.article

"so its for that reason, I'm oooooot!"

How do you know they haven't? He is a very good holding midfielder, Fonte would be lost if he were to be shoehorned into such a role and probably wouldn't even have the stamina for it. Schneiderlin has covered more ground than any other Premier League player this season. Fonte also lacks Schneiderlin's first touch, passing ability, vision etc etc which are needed to play in that role. Watch back some games with Schneiderlin as the holding midfielder and you see he wins the ball alot in the tackle and interceptions.

Big improvements to training, coaching badges for staff and also introduction of training camps in pre-season and in winter breaks...

I'm sure we'll still find some bugs in MLG v2.0. Wait for the January window patch.

It's a new me...

He won the Champions League, FA Cup, European Super Cup and came 2nd in the Premier League with Liverpool, I think if he did that for Saints we'd forgive him no matter how many "crap" signing he made... He also won the Spanish title twice and UEFA Cup with Valencia and the World Club Cup with Inter Milan.

You say Hoiveldt, everyone else says Hooiveld, lets call the whole thing off.

Gives Tadanari Lee's translator something to do when he is not putting away footballs or picking up cones.

Even if they did that, Saints couldn't register him to play until January.

It is worse then "horse-****", he is unaware that Southampton can't loan or buy anyone until January 2013. The transfer window is closed and Upson is a Stoke City player.

It is rubbish, he cannot sign for another Premier League team until January 2013.

So you wouldn't start with Rickie Lambert at home vs Aston Villa?

It is realistic to include directors of football as they do play big roles at clubs. Les Reed will do stuff in real life you can now assign him to do on FM13. Who's to say managers haven't had an influence in the appointment of a DoF before. SI works closely with people within the sport to accurately represent it. Scouts, managers, agents, managing directors etc. The sponsorships of Wimbledon and now Watford allow SI to see how clubs operate and then replicate it. Why do you think there wouldn't be?

Is that really a problem? Numerous people have complained the game is too complicated for them, this gives them the chance to further deligate some of the things they don't want to do. SI really can't win!

Its Les Reed time!

Good to see you still confusing the Football Association and the Football League like so many other Pompey fans do.

Saints had a net spend of circa £30 million this summer. The 7th highest net spend this transfer window in the whole of European football.

We often sold that on matchday walkups alone. So like you say with a week to go, I don't know why people are making an issue of it.

What about my suggestion? Ambitious yes, but less "mental" than Pilchards idea. Plus he likes facts...

Not that I think he will be sacked or that I want Adkins to go. But would... ...be out of the question? He is currently out of a job and publicly stated he wants to manage in the Premier League again. He has won La Liga twice, 2nd in the Premier League and won the UEFA Cup, won the World Club Cup and won the Champions League. Ambitious of course, but Cortese is the ambitious type! (that is an awesome video to watch regardless! )

And about to be hit with -10 points (which is actually lenient considering they are diluting a failed CVA with a new CVA).
