More about Lovren in the Mail: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2726131/Liverpool-s-new-20million-defender-Dejan-Lovren-Fleeing-horror-war-homeland-strong.html It just mentions us in passing.

That's no way to talk about our players

Man Utd I suppose, but Liverpool would do instead.

Fabulous, absolutely fabulous. Wonderful aircraft and beautiful designs. We have two blue plaques in Southampton for their designers: R. J. Mitchell: http://openplaques.org/plaques/1392 2 Russell Place Roy Chadwick: http://openplaques.org/plaques/1409 38 Chessel Street

Well, resolved for the moment anyway. Next year is a long time in football and everything will look a lot different by then. He may have seen how the deserters have fared in their new clubs and decide that he's better off staying here, or maybe we'll be looking down on them all front the upper end of the table, or who knows?

This, basically. You can't have a player telling the manager who he should play. There will only be one winner.

Hairy muff. The situation has been resolved, deal with it and move on.

His best chance of getting a move (or playing for France) is to knuckle down and put in some outstanding performances.

Me too. I got my first two in 1966. Good luck to all those of you out there. Let's hope all turns out well and remember, university isn't everything, sometimes getting out there and getting work experience is better in the long run. And there's money being earned!

We've screwed everybody else so far.

I think losing him will have a much bigger effect on them than losing whatsisname will have on us.

Good, I'm pleased with this.

And David Howells. Doesn't he still live in Hedge End or somewhere?

And ambitious

I still think we do.

Round 2 week commencing 25th August Round 3 week commencing 22nd September Round 4 week commencing 27th October Etc.

As cover, and also to let him know that the sun doesn't revolve around his arse.

A bit of a gamble? This is the Premier League, there is not the time or space for gambles.

Why not? I wouldn't have thought there was much difference.

Nobody really likes saying 'I told you so', but...

It turned out that we don't.

Dropped his wallet and bent down to pick it up too quickly.

Because he might not be any good at this level.

Technically its 23:00 on the 1st September, which is also the last day of the school holidays so perhaps this forum will calm down once all the little ones have gone back.

Not when he's not playing he isn't. Even I'm better than Osvaldo until I get out on the pitch.
