So, I have a season ticket and I often go along with my old man. He does not have a season ticket. Any ideas what I can do to secure a second ticket as one will be covered by the season ticket allocation?

I ****ing hated that for 90 mins but it was a beautiful build up to an epic ending. Unbelievable performances all round from the bench to the starters to the management. ****ing epic!

Without comment either way on the transfer, isn't it a funny coincidence that when they're here the players are the best persons ever...yet when they leave they're all 'Billy Big ********' ****s. Lovren (that one I can believe, actually), Lallana, Pochettino, Koeman, Alderweireld etc. Is it just possible they aren't the problem?

Mid table players, end up mid table... hopefully.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz - that's the impact our attacking 'force' has on me.

Is anyone else getting no sound from the OS for the commentary?

Is that what it has come too! Sigh.

We've crossed the ball more times than any other team in the Prem. I have no idea why the **** we are doing this, it's not like any of our ****ing strikers are any good in the air. How many headed goals have we ****ing scored????? Dreadfully boring inept team to watch regardless of result.

Another one for him today

Regardless of my own thoughts either way of Redmond so far, this is not the glowing recommendation it seems. 'Merse' can barely spell his own name at times let alone come out with a coherent thought.

I think he's referring to the international break, not the time line for being 'fit'. He'll be considered for Burnley assuming he has no set backs I suspect.

Where was this confirmed?

Although I am not naive enough to think all 'dreams come true' and fairy-tales, I can tell you he very much wanted to play for us and has done for a few seasons. He had the opportunity to go Bournemouth plus a few other prem clubs but chose Southampton. He does have an affinity with the South Coast and wanted to move back here so on that basis I share some of the warm fuzzies the guys above are getting from him.

Not sure who those people are...But I certainly won't. He hasn't looked up to the job and Everton deliberately targeted him on Saturday. That said I think he actually has potential but needs to develop which being Bertrand's understudy will give him the opportunity.

This. Fonte was everything the rest of our defence wasn't. Not sure I lay as much blame at Yoshi's door as I do Targett who was rank average again - hopefully he can improve with age because he's been shown up twice this season now.

He was right about Uranus....

This. He'd be an absolutely good signing and unfortunately 15m is actually probably less than the going rate for English born players these days. I'd go as far as to say it's snip and he would have made the difference for us this season.

Jay Rod back training with the first team squad.

The BBC might have a spot for him hosting Top Gear? Complete Guano Mental. Kind of love him. But mainly because he's no longer here.

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAA. Everybody rejoices. Balance almost restored.

LOL "late for lunch lad" got a chuckle. Well played. I don't agree though I am afraid. A good player yes. Potential yes (which I accept is what was said initially) but currently or near future I don't think he's world class. Aguero is world class. Messi, Ronaldo, Costa, Suarez - this is what I think of as World Class. He isn't a scratch on any of them.

That was 5 years ago and he's fallen away somewhat since. Don't get me wrong, I've seen stuff from all 3 which makes them good enough for us (though Mane most promisingly for me) but to be deemed a world class player I feel you have to be coveted by some of the best sides in the world. None of the three are, were or have been for some time. Not even close.

They definitely aren't. And I don't mean that is in 'they are bad' what I mean is they wouldn't get close to being on the bench for the top sides in the world (Mane a possible exception but even that's a stretch). We have possibly two world class players in our squad and even then I'd say only good enough for benching and that's Toby and Schneiderlin.

Are both Morgan and Toby likely to be fit for this one? Because that will make a huge difference for sure.
