They are to hold a GPS system, movement, heart rate monitor etc thing that goes in a pocket between the shoulder blades.

I think he was expecting Barcelona in January to be 30c. They are currently training in sunny Spain at Barcelona's training ground and the Olympic stadium with temperatures 10c warmer than they would have at Staplewood, so he can't complain too much.

It looks alot worse from this angle...

Care to name them? Because at a guess, you have lifted both of those from here... http://www.southamptonrumours.co.uk/ Which is about as unreliable a source as you can get.

Only 4 points above us, they have to come to St Mary's and tonight puts their goal difference very close to ours.

I think you answered your own question.

Well if I wasn't Le Tissier wouldn't reply to me would he.

I'm not attacking him.

I wouldn't put it quite like that, I doubt he'd talk to me if I were.

He could have been indifferent, instead he choose to praise him.

As I said... "he has just been shipped out on loan to League One unlikely to ever play for Saints again", so he didn't have to say something nice.

With Lallana out injured and Mayuka in Africa, we've been playing Guly Do Prado and Steve De Ridder. Would you not like some more competition for the 3 attacking midfielders in the 4-2-3-1 system? In any case, why do you think signing Coutinho means they won't strengthen elsewhere? They can do more than one deal at once, plus we have signed an international centre back already this window.

Dan Seaborne likes him and he has just been shipped out on loan to League One unlikely to ever play for Saints again... http://www.tibsnews.com/news/seaborne-backs-saints-chairman/ ^ that article is a good read for any Saints fan.

How will Dave Merrington cope?

Seemingly so, yes.

A guy claiming to be the Reuters Global Sports Editor... Ossian Shine ‏@ossianshine all froth and wind, no verification but reports flying around that Southampton have had their £10.1m bid for Coutinho accepted.

Nope, they are planning that for the Wigan game next Saturday.

Training sessions aren't long so could just be at different times, in any case there are more than enough pitches for more than one team to train at the same time.

Because we play 4-2-3-1

Maybe he really enjoys ironing.

Think he means Mark Forbes the kitman.

They are starting to put up some of the trickier questions, but he is sidestepping them and/or not giving the most convincing of answers.

Come on then lads, think quickly... what would be the most difficult and awkward question about the situation for him to answer? The PST's business plan is so shot full of flaws it shouldn't be hard.

Or sold, he simply isn't going to be good enough for us in the Premier League. He needs a fresh start at a top League One club.

He goes onto say... David Anderson ‏@MirrorAnderson @LouisAlbertoB There's something big happening at Saints. Cortese has plenty of dough and will back Pochettino heavily.
