I'm looking forward to seeing Luke Shaw up against Europe's elite....... Oh.

If we sign a replacement for Gaston, I'd be fine with this but I have a feeling he could offer us something this season, and so letting him go without replacement would be crazy.

It was deliberate. In fact Long doesn't have to do anything else in his Saints career, that bit of skill was worth £12 million itself.

I'd imagine the one player is a winger, and the two players are a winger and centre back. We still lack depth at right back too. Then there's any 'outs' we may have to endure, those would need new signings for too. 1 or 2, so Koeman says, could be a turn of phrase as Greenridge states.

Outstanding contribution and looked eager to smash in the fourth too.

Celtic fans on one of their forums think he's off. Apparently Newcastle interested though... Edit: meant to quote the Van Dijk post above. Oh well...

Playing some OK stuff in between my stream freezing. Is that a hat trick of assists for Reeves?

Blimey o Riley that's a strong line up. Fingers crossed it'll do the biz. I forgot what predo I went for in the prediction league and I can't be arsed to check but I'm going for a simple 2-0 Saints win.

Anfield's Hooiveld?

I'm maintaining the status quo by heading off to work. :-(

This. He's only 23, would strengthen our attacking options. Although I couldn't give two testicles whether we got him or not.

Preparing the way for a Berahino bid? I wonder. I'm surprised he's not been linked with anyone this summer.

One Italy international out, one in. Good business. Hope he bangs in one or more against WBA.

Nick Powell is available. Yes please. Was One of Wigan's best players last season, highly skilful and not wanted by United.

He must be. He's all skin and bone.

This. Townsend is still young and learning the game. He'll get better. You can't teach someone to run faster (unless it's teaching them a better running technique, but that won't make them Usain Bolt suddenly) but you can teach them decision making and end product. It's why people wanted Redmond, raw but can be moulded. I believe the same was said about Kenwyne Jones when we signed him.

This'll be the basis of how good our team is. I expect WBA to be in the bottom 6 come the end of the season. Surely we're better than them... Anyway I predict a win, a Pelle goal, and a streaker.

That in itself is madness. I assume there are all kinds of clauses should WBA go down, otherwise their parachute payments will be spent on paying Lescotts salary...

Something I just noticed, it's not a great point but I'll say it anyway, is despite the media claiming our team has been decimated, we only started 4 debutants yesterday, and arguably it could've been 3 had Boruc started. Koeman keeping the status quo from last season...?

Is he better than Mario Lička?
