Hilarious isn't it. His legs have gone and he only gets picked to keep the scousers happy by a sh*t manager according to this forum.

Partly caused IIRC correctly by a succession of England managers playing him on the left in a 4-4-2 rather than building a team around him as they should have done.

IMO Scholes is the best player this country has produced for 20 odd years, an absolute class player woefully misused by England.

They are two all important qualities for any player that pulls on an England shirt.

of course. He's played him for every minute of every game this season because he's doing a s*it job and just wants to make friends with the scoucers, of course that's the reason.

Disgusting homophobic post. mods take action.

Pirlo was just an example of players being written off but still producing the good you plum. As i said above he's played every minute of every game this season, must be doing something right and Brendan Rodgers still rates him, he knows more than a few Internet people who are writing him off after one game.

Brendan Rogers said he was doing this a few weeks back and is still a highly influential player at Liverpool. He's played every minute of every game this season so obviously doing something right.

Has anyone ever seen a set of Saintsweb accounts? It's a tidy little side business his Bojesty has got running here alongside his Kasabian tribute act, I'm sure he must make a few quid out of doing f*ck all.

He's 32, he's not going to be the rampaging midfielder he was 7-8 years ago. In his prime he was a class player and still is quality, he'll just adapt his game like all top players do. 3 years ago people said Pirlo was finished and he was arguably the best midfielder at Euro 2012.

He is certainly a stylish chap I was pleased to see he'd dropped the bench coat a few games back as mentioned on here but it seems to have made a return. He needs a mid grey or black wool number this time of year. If he can address this we would have a manager who fits the image the club wants to present. As for the fans, well that's not going to be so easy.

Read the thread before commenting.

Go back through the posts for the game, with the exception of Man city and United on every thread the majority view was that we would win them and or at least get a point. Norwich are sliding down the table and in terrible form we were told, well beatable. Newcastle were there for the taking and it was only a crap ref that denied us a deserved victory we were told, as pointed out by Mr Fry, Lawro was lamblasted for predicting we'd lose against Newcatle and QPR. Wigan were easily beatable and we could definitely get something from Everton. Liverpool also werent a great side who were lucky to beat Spurs so we could get something againt Them. It's not my view by the way, it was the mongboard concensus on the build up threads. They were expecting wins at Newcatle, Norwich and Wigan, home win against QPR and a minimum of a point v Everton and Liverpool.

I don't know why some of the clowns on here are having a go at you. Take the games individually and plenty of the mugs on here were predicting wins against Everton, Wigan, Norwich and QPR in the run up to those games. QPR are a terrible team we were told, Norwich are bang out of form and sliding down the table, Wigan we can beat easily and Everton with our wonder manager installed and the bumpkin who was holding us back finally shown the door was a match we should expect to win comfortably. It's only now in hindsight it was utter ridiculous to expect us to win the games as that is champions league form or something and it would be mental to expect us to win 4 games out of 8, two of them away. I can't believe anyone would possibly suggest such a thing.

Get it in the mixer!!!

Like Giroud you mean? Or Reimy, Sissoko, Cabaye, Ribery, Clichy, Evra, Lloris, Yanga-Mbwia, Lloris or the other players in the 18 out of 28 who managed to fluke their way into the French squad for their upcoming games despite having the massive handicap of not playing in the French League.

Who were the hysterical tarts that claimed he should never play for this club again? I wonder if the mugs in the chapel that were getting so upset after bottlegate were applauding his performance yesterday?

Lucky lad.

No I'm reading it. it's very simple maths. You love your stats so i cant understand why your struggling. if the team that has most shots are winning almost 50% of matches then they are not winning over half the matches, which proves having more shots on goal doesnt automatically mean you win matches, in fact it proves that over half the time you won't. It also proves as many of us said you are talking boll ocks.

Not even god can stop the Southampton juggernaut.

If its right in almost 50% of Games, then it must be wrong in over 50% of games. As usual your silly little stats are shown up to mean f*ck all.

So it's been wrong in over 50% of the 300 games played this season, yes?

So the last time we did not lose a game after an international break was the last one. Brilliant stuff.

To be fair it's not just him. Every ex pat has an amazing life and you don't just have to go to Far flung places like Dubai. You can have equally a great life in Europe too. Look at Sue Whistle for example. When she's not quaffing chanti in her dungarees she's running rings round Itie women's defences playing soccerball, skiing in the Dolomites or sunbathing on the lakes. You too can live the dream all you have to do is move abroad, anywhere will do.

Your fingers are very wet and smell at best musky or at worst like trout that's been laid in the sun for a week.
