People said it was crazy fee for Long, but I said to judge the fee by the replacement Hull sign. Hernandez has scored 17 goals in 83 games in Serie A, which is 0.205 goals per game which is marginally better than 28 in 148 for Long (0.189 goals per game), so on paper, not an upgrade and when you take experience of this league into account, it could be a retrograde move, albeit with £2.5m in the bank.

...but, just to add to clear things up, is obviously not over rated if wearing a Saints shirt.

Not totally sure. If you have someone behind you who you have the utmost faith in, then maybe you are more relaxed and can play a better game. Not saying that the players didn't have faith in Boruc, but there was always a niggling doubt in my mind that he might cock things up. I know it is early days, but I don't get the same feeling with FF, and maybe the players don't either.

Wow, S-C, that was thrilling!!!!

Absolutely stocked that Pelle has scored. Hope this can be the start of better things after a hard start and shove a great big one up the backsides of the boo boys.

3 English players.....what a change from last season.

Well if Jack does go, then at least we won't worry about the trite tweets of his father.

Not looking good for Brenda

so twice the number JRod scored in his first season in the PL?

Patrik, that would be very petty wanting him to fail, but no, it's not just you. I want him, our ex manager and one other ex-player to fail, and yes, I know it's petty.

An impact sub for who?

Still banging on Richmond. Very trite now that you have been saying the same thing months on end. Zzzzzzzzz

Rather than a big centre forward? Pelle is 6ft4 (plus anything for the hair)

True, but it affects visas. I am no lawyer and no visa/immigration specialist, but.....

Rojo - will be interesting to see if he plays here in this country. With a criminal case in the offing and likely jail time if found guilty, many countries wouldn't give him a visa/work permit. He hasn't got one yet, so wondering whether that is the hold up.

Unfortunately it wasn't just the Northam. I sit Kingsland block 30, and those on my right were doing ironic cheering as well.

As you have no idea how good or bad Pelle is, it would be hard to say. Me, I'm happy with Pelle for the time being and couldn't believe the pathetic bed wetting from people about him. But that's you through and through, so why not **** off to B'mouith and watch Carlton Cole?

Sold 4 brought in 3 (so far). We as a club epitomise what is wrong with the game, or at least one of it's facets.

Speak for yourself. Maybe I am just more pragmatic than others.

Pathetic line up showing all that is wrong with PL, but I guess some have done even worse by having no English players. Guess we all look for different things from football.

MS did seem a little more anonymous on Sat than he usually does.

No idea what point you're trying to make.

Oh Bearsy, thanks a bunch. I was admiring the curves and blocking out anything to do with Frannie, but it's now ruined.

Nope - only Cornetto, Magnum and something that he showed me for the best part of ¼ second, so couldn't see what it was. But sod the B&J, should have New Forest ice cream. Let's get our priorities sorted.
