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).

If we are relegated the team would be ripped apart, the likes of Ramirez etc won't hang around in the Championship. You'd have to build a team again! Please enlighten me how having a net spend of £30 million this summer (the 4th highest in the Premier League), is preparing for a yo-yo existence?

Did you think that after the Man City and Man Utd games?

Please don't continue with this, it is absolute nonsense and makes you look ridiculous. Saints haven't made a net spend of circa £30m this summer with a strategy of getting relegated to get promoted again in mind.

They will have a plan of getting him ready for first team action again, that won't include playing on Friday and then travelling to London for another game the next day. He will be playing with the under 21's to build match fitness, there is no need to rush him back into the first team and risk further injury.
