Mr X

what exactly have you seen?

agreed although I don't doubt either players commitment they always give 100% just the skill isn't quite there

Yoshida although its clear jos as much as I like him is too slow and error prone as well, like someone said yoshi might be alright alongside lovren maybe even the Norwegian will get a game

A 12 million bid for a player they brought for 900k they have to be happy with that surely? Wether it's wise on our part I'm not sure. Looks like he's built like boruc looks fat but can't be

True! Personally I think it's a pipe dream why would he come here? But the same was said about gaston and he signed because "they are paying me a lot of money!"

I knew that but isn't it moderated by wiki for accuracy?

Why does it say saints is his current club on wiki? Wishful thinking I think!

Good backup player if we are honest probably not quite good enough for the level a premiership defender has to be these days

32, from Salisbury, first game was around the earliy 90's as a nipper with my dad, it was a loss to Leeds i remember that much. Normally in the kingsland stand as im too boring for the northam! (behave before anyone says and this forum! )

and what do you look like?.......... tom hardy i'm assuming

dejan.......hes the mustard

the story underneath is more interesting........... gulp another Uruguayan! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2336569/Southampton-close-signing-Gonzalo-El-Zorro-Bueno.html

I wonder how many people slagging Adkins off will be eating humble pie when there back in the premiership?

He didnt have a strong start or finish (like everyone) but He has contributed far more to the team than Ramirez so I consider it seven million well spent what he try's doesn't always come off but he's a willing runner and always looks like he's giving the required effort

He could be amazing next season or he could be just as bad as this season. if its the latter will people admit he's not the signing we thought he was? And if its the former I will gladly eat humble pie

no smoke without fire and all that! He can't exactly be over the moon that he hasn't been involved in a single game must be wondering why the hell he signed for us

I expect your'll find a way to vastly inflate his contribution to the team too but noones perfect

whats wrong with steven davis?

the pretty stuff above lump it forward? lump it forward was more effective but i think we will be as good if not better than them next season if we can make the right quality of additions

West-ham don't have a vastly superior side on paper but they managed to be a top ten club (just) in their first season back. What do you think separates us and them? was it our failure to sort out defensive and goalkeeping issues earlier? big sams experience? or merely that tenth is not a true reflection of them or their football and a bit flattering. Are west ham a bigger club than us?....................

wonder what commision cortese is on? its probably quite a good deal with bonuses for league position and even one for securing survival! talented at spending someone else's money?

My guess is that this whole thing will end up ****ing the liebherrs off so much that they won't fall for corteses naive media games and will pull the plug on the whole investment if it isn't swiftly deal with! Worrying times for saints

its too early to say but this is a far from convincing end to the season we are nowhere near a top ten team at the moment. Lets all get behind poch next season and see where we are at Xmas. We were dire in the transfer window so hopefully a better one this season!

I can see us paying the price for the last few results nice one Cortese!

Here we go
