Depends how you look at it. We've spunked £50m+ on a load of shite centre backs trying to be clever and thinking of resale value, when we could have paid £3m for Jonny Evans or Craig Dawson the experienced leader we've been crying out for okay we'd have had to pay him a bit more but he certainly wouldn't have cost more in wages than Hoedt and Vestergaard and we'd have saved £35m in transfer fees. in the forward positions we've spent £60m on Adams, Armstrong, Elyanoussi and Djenepo, only one of them has looked a vaguely competent premier league player in their time here, ones hardly played, another farmed out on loan for 2 seasons and i look a better premier league striker than Armstrong. They'll all be on £50-£60k a week. You're not telling me we couldn't have signed two far superior players for £25-£30m and £100k a week in those positions. I have always maintained the best route for clubs like us is a first 11 of a core of good experienced older players, in goal, centre back and centre midfield, around the 30 years old mark and get 2-3 season out of them, 2-3 YHGTIers and then 3 players of quality. Yes you'd pay them more but ultimately 3 good players doing something is a lot better than 6 crap ones not contributing anything. the problem is when every signing is a cheap gamble or YHGTIer with hardly any seasoned players around them then you're always going to leave yourself open to it all going tits up, like it is now.

So after backing off to let me have the last word, you have now twice responded trying to have it yourself
-
Of course we will, but we tried hard it’s such a tough window.
-
You didn’t back off and go to sleep then? Up until 2am posting on here in response to me 🤣🤣🤣

Why is it harsh to criticise him? He’s job is to win football matches. He isn’t winning them. It’s as simple as that.
-
Won what? you made some pedantic dull comment about birds evolution then got all angry and abusive you then tried to “win” saying you were calling me out for trolling Sog, yet I’ve not mentioned him or respond to him today and you’ve been repeatedly responded to me across 4, not 3 threads it was more than I thought! You’re right it probably is time you went to bed before you dig yourself a bigger hole .
-
I’ve not mentioned soggy today and you’ve been replying to me several times on three different threads. Think you need to have a word with the man in the mirror princess
-
Yet you regularly respond to me, so cant be that boring. So you’ve answered your own question. Well done
-
What was self opinionated about a light hearted post in the event of no transfer news which prompted a tedious post from you with a historical evolution of birds. Pedantic as fuck
-
Are you always such a pedantic bore?
-
I admire you optimism but also question how long you’ve been a saints fan for if you’re expecting any exciting news that late in the transfer window. Much like a packet of Worcester cause French fries it’s always underwhelming

Since we sold Van Dijk we’ve probably spunked best part of £250m on shite in transfer fees and probably the same again in wages. It isn’t that we’re too poor it’s that the management of this club has been criminally bad.

Used to be able to get hula hoops on every finger then eat the off them. Another depressing biproduct of getting old

If you could control all the animals in the world or all the birds in the world which would you choose?

Anyone know if Ryan Reynolds was there? Thought they might have mentioned it on telly
-
If there was some we wouldn’t be talking about crisps I’d have thought pal

Derek Stat-ham and mustard

Spaghetti bolognaise flavoured crisps? What sort of purgatory do you live in?
-
Saints crisp 11 Much tougher than a cheese Xi Paul Smiths in goal Kyle Walkers-Peters Nick Nack as CEO struggling with any others
-
Pork scratching are not crisps FFS. Now for a pint accompaniment bar snack nothing comes close to pork scratchings these are bacon fries
-
You seem to be reply to me an awful lot considering you don’t care about my opinion.

Not seen frazzles for ages, do they still exit? honourable mention to Salt and vinegar McCoy’s and discos
