Do they? Please explain how a pompous deluded old man sitting behind his computer in Southampton would know which players Man United, City, Chelsea etc are chasing.

Are you seriously using 5th placed Arsenals supposed inconsistent form as evidence their coaches are WORSE than 18th placed Saints?

No chance,they've not even had a meaningful shot.

He is significantly better than we have.

Who remembers the day we were 3-0 down with 20 mins to o at home to Liverpool at the Dell, pulled It back to 3-3.

Butland is not what we need. We need a confident, experienced goalkeeper.

He also flapped at loads of crosses and was at fault with the second goal, along with Guly.

To be fair If they did survive he'd deserve it. It would be incredible given how poor they look.

If he does go I think we can safely say that talk of being an established premier league side with 50% of the squad being academy players is nothing more than fanciful talk.

Well I watched it on stream and support sounded really good. Just after Stoke got their equaliser all you could hear was a loud OWTSGMI.

Well when you're a fan on the board you can ban that sort of thing Steve! How's the ego? Still massive?

Cork was aggressive today, his battling was the reason Stoke went down to 10 men. We were undone by a world class strike, stop looking for scape goats and reasons.

He flapped so much I thought he was going to roost in the stands.

Do you?!

I don't nessasairly buy this left sided and right sided centre half thing. Its only been an issue since Adkins said he prefers left footed centre halves playing on the left side so that it is easier to play out from the back. Before them wed never discussed it. I'd rather have two good solid centre halves that can defend properly who are right footed than two average ones (like we have) playing on their favoured foot side. Rio Ferdinand and Vidic are both right footed, doesn't seem to have been a problem for them for the last few seasons.

Why are you trolling my posts? It's people like you who are ruining this board. It's no wonder the good posters don't bother anymore!

You could always do us both a favour and put me on ignore. Don't forget to announce it when you do though, nothing is better than an 'I've got him on ignore' post.

Nicholl had a good eye for a centre half didn't he. Osman, Moore, Ruddock, Hall, top defenders signed for a very small a,ount of money and that Osman apart not many had heard of when they joined us. Guess that is what comes from a manager knowing the position well.

Daniele Labanti who was the italian journalist who tweeted lots about Ramirez has just said 'it could be possible' on twitter.

Not a lot not to like about this one, 6ft 2 Italian international centre half at a good age. Would be a fantastic signing by the looks of things. Italians certainly know how to defend!

What a great signing he was as well. Nicholls last one I believe.

Mark Blake played a view games for the first team in the 80s, he was a local lad and a decent centre half although played most of his games at a lower level. Another one like that was Steve Davis, who I quite rated at the time but he left for Burnley after a handful of first team appearances.

Thanks. Some people say a psycologist would have a field day with me but Im glad my contribution to this mongboard can be condensed into less than 200 words.

He's got a fcking big nose.
