Crab Lungs

... exactly the argument I'm having now.

As I said on FB... Amazing how our midfield is so much more cohesive, dovetailing perfectly and working better without Gerrard... not! Great to see Wilshere/Parker/Lampard as a 3 because they move the ball quicker, not faff around with it... Great workrate so far too.

4 boundaries in 27 overs... England 95-2 Bopara gone.... 95-3 Bring in Morgan.... PLEASE!

I would like to be managed by Dubai Phil, assuming I get 'selected' and of course, find the necessary money to play.

Yet they're even more untested than Dale Stephens? The only midfield signing I've seen recently of any merit was Michael Stewart to Charlton. Apart from that, perhaps Dale Stephens. Besides, many Championship sides sign players from L1 and L2 who have absolutely no problem in stepping up. Anyway, let's see what happens

Bit of a premature response, don't you think? Thanks for the info, Latics Fan.

Oh no, not that orange money sucking d1ck. I hope they've got good enough hotels there for that bronzed moron.

Their loss is most definitely Santos' gai... ...

FC Santos are such great contributors to TSW

Has anyone seen the aforementioned programmes? My word, really, really puts things into perspective. I've more to say but I'm just finishing off one of the episodes...

I have to ask: Why on earth do players almost always say they come to the EPL for its renowned atmosphere? That said, I suppose not every club abroad is a Boca...

And Steve, don't auto correct my position to "left back", please...

Very, very tempting. Just need to find the money for WN first...

Now there's a word that should be used more often: "Snaffled".

Them and Bournemouth have both grown significant chips on their shoulders, God knows why.

McIndoe would be decent... VERY quick winger. Blows a bit hot 'n' cold, but more than capable...

Well, it'd be nice to see some movement. I don't know why, but I find myself on the PFA Players website looking at the free transfers! Only players that would 'bulk out' our squad and add maybe a little something are Kevin McLeod (left midfielder) and James Scowcroft (Rickie back up?) though. Darren Powell's there too, lol. :-o

That's what I keep hoping...!

Ok, threadbare was probably an overstatement until the facts are known about Lallana/Ox. However, a CM would do very nicely... a Graham Kavanagh type would do a half decent job in helping us over the line (as he's done with a few clubs before). Someone who's just been there before, unspectacular but solid with the experience, just in case anyone starts to wobble a bit..

I don't get it. There are players out there that our surely within our budget that we could attract... yet everything is silent, as always. We're pretty threadbare too so I do have to wonder if we actually do have the resources, even for a short-term loan. Is it resources? Is it that we can't find a player that would improve our squad and would be willing to play for us (which I don't believe for a second considering there are hundreds, probably thousands who'd love to and are good enough). Or is crazy Nige confident with what he's got?

This.

If it was introduced at St. Mary's in the not too distance future, where would it be? I'm assuming the Northam would be the most likely converted? Also, how would you gauge a safe capacity for standing? What would be the likely increase of SMS's capacity? Just wondered... someone might be interested in speculating my above questions!?

Thanks for that little update on here, Gemmel. I've always maintained that RL wasn't a bad man - certainly not the heinous panto villain some of our mongy fans would have him perceived.

Surprise, surprise, arrogant BHA fans who, ironically, always accuse us of arrogance.
