Well we know that Lee and Sharp are not in MP's plans, and on the evidence of last season Mayuka is not very good (though I think he could be) so if this guy is any good (i.e. better than Bambi) at all he could actually be what we need.

Hence why Mayuka was not in many of the action pictures then, as I suspected in the other thread.

As back up for Luke Shaw?

Should we adopt a fruit and have a song about it? I suppose we used to have Peach in our team, maybe that counts.

What is Sothiedad?

At least looks like the Gills have 2 goalkeepers. No sign of Tommy Fourpast.

Its even funnier when you consider this comment made about players coming to Saints with our history of little angels such as John McGrath and Razor Ruddock (other varieties of beast are also available). VDub would run a mile if either of them came up to tackle him.

Just keep him away from the same tattoo parlour. I saw Boruc was listed in the top 5 worst tattoos in football, but I think Fox would be up there as well.

Gazza is no longer under 21. He was 21 in January, as far as I know that makes him over 21. We need to strengthen at RB and up front (would be good to strengthen at LB but clearly Fox is considered to be the backup required). Is Jack Stephens really considered our RB backup, I know he can play there but seems to have been converted to more of a CB these days.

Yep, seems like you are missing something. He's not world class but to call him average is pretty stupid. Bit like saying Messi is quite good.

Still the good news is looks like he was involved in the shooting practice, so maybe he is over whatever was keeping him out of the spotlight before

So why do the pictures show all the players training hard, but not one shows Manny doing anything ()apart from new one today where he is swimming. The fact that he's out there says nothing at all, I never said he wasn't involved I'm questioning whether he is injured? Why can't people do simple things and look at the evidence and wonder why he is not involved in training rather than make a smart alec remark that just shows they have no idea? Thought you were a bit better than that, sort of comment I would have expected from the three trolls.

It always amazes me that some folks writing about Saints will still try to trot out the "manager merry-go-round" line based on the time when we were mis-managed by Lowe. It is irrelevant since we went into Administration. Admittedly we have had 3 managers since then but I just don't see the relevance to the current situation. Its almost like the author of the report does not actually know that we went into admin and are now owned by a completely different set of people (or person). Still good to see that people are beginning to sit up and take some notice, even when ill-informed.

As I said on another thread yesterday there is precious little evidence that he is even involved. Only 2 pictures include him and neither show him partaking in any activity. I wonder whether he is carrying an injury.

Manny Mayuka is almost non-existent in the many pictures online on the OS. I think there are 2 pictures that include him, but he doesn't appear in any of the shots of any action, is he injured or just camera shy

He meant when Saints are drawn against Celtic in the Champions League next season.

Don't think anyone has ever mentioned Hooper in relation to Saints before, interesting question.

25 not including the nippers. So several places still available.

Just remind me how many appearances Bleidelis and Chala made between them. Was it more or the same as Forren?

All that's needed now is to figure out the use of the word "have" instead of "of". Twice in sentence is quite special.

They are waiting for the watch to be delivered from the bank vaults.

Shame they didn't get a personalised plate though, will look crap in 6 months or so. NIC 1 maybe.

More likely reason is to guarantee goals, at least at one end

I think banning him would be more likely to have the desired effect. Sadly neither will happen.

No loss, never looked like a decent CB even when playing for the u21s. Not sure what went wrong with this signing, but something did for sure.
