True - but Lovrens head was also on merseyside while the rest of him was on the south coast! A bit like watching him play now - all over the place.

You've not had your happy pills today have you? And once we have got rid of that player who was under tight contract, what next? Just let the next batch leave as and when they want to, in fact don't bother with any contractual arrangements - just have an open house and let players come and go as they see fit. WASTED planning.

Those are the four word that you need to consider carefully when you try to evaluate Les Reed performance within the club. Few clubs of our stature would have been able to see off the interest from the suitors of the players and staff that we have allowed to leave. You also need to understand that Cortese (good though he was) would appear to have been out of control with other peoples money and needed reigning in. Any club will have 'failures' as you put it amongst their playing staff - it's not exclusive to SFC - really it's not. There is no laughable logic - Les Reed has done a good job at SFC.

Yeah, I know all that, but Les Reed out anyway eh...?

Get a life mate, honestly.

Would be very interesting to see his 'celebrations' if it did happen...!

This. Sorry, I mean THIS. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

I expect him to be at least on the bench, if not in the team for Watford. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

Is this just a ploy to see if anybody can get a Scouser to part with a five pound note? You have no chance. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

He's been on a meltdown for weeks, no doubt there will be a few others who will be backtracking with their views as well. Club have played a blinder. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

First time that I've watched sky deadline day. What's a load of cr ap. Sky sources (WTF are they?), basically nobody is going anywhere. I actually feel sorry watching them desperately trying to fill space. As i type, live from Southampton, VvD is staying, Les has gone home, it's getting dark. Virgil goes back to training on Monday.

I think that you probably need to appreciate the 'bigger picture' with regard to all of this. This is about much more than a player moving from one team to another. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

Yep, pretty much agree with all of this. The VvD saga has taken center stage in the club for far too long as far as I'm concerned, given that he didn't actually play for us for half the season last year as well, we haven't done too badly at all. Obviously (if he stays) he makes us stronger so long as his attitude and application is right. But I've been more than happy with what we've got. We don't score enough goals, we all know that, but trying to find a 20 goal a season striker is not quite as easy as some people on here seem to think it is. All in all, pretty happy with what we've got, looking forward to the Watford game once the Transfer Deadline Circus has left town and everything has settled down a bit.

He no look happy...! Has this photo made it to RAWK yet...? or are they all still looking skywards for private jets...?

Decent first post really, compared to some of the drivel posted here that's a pretty good start...!

Good advice - but he is a top troll and knows how to wind people up - fair play to him, he's damn good at what he does.

FFS.

2 down after 20 minutes, not going well. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

That told him. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

They'll be gutted to hear that. Does 'officially done' mean that you will be sending them a strongly worded email to inform them personally?

They really won't. Liverpool look good today purely because arsenal are abysmal. Probably one of the laziest woeful performances i have witnessed in a very long time. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

You come across as very, very stupid. Do you mean to? Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

Shhhh, far too positive for this thread.. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

What's had been leaked to the press? Nothing, nobody knows anything, everybody is guessing, putting two and two together and coming up with five. The club have been consistent throughout this whole sorry saga, i can't actually remember Les Reed saying anything about it in public, Ralph yes, but not Les. There are a few supposed ITK posters here who have posted snippets, very few of which can be taken as gospel, so essentially all the business is being conducted discreetly and properly within the club. Leaks have not come from the club, far too many people believing what they read on social media and gutter press. VvD may well end up going in the next couple of days, but i really don't think that the club have handled this badly at all, in fact quite the opposite. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

Unfortunately though, in order to exploit that strength, you also need both timing and finishing. Nine times out of ten he will be offside and on the odd occasion he does get in he will fluff the finish. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
