  1. Will be much stronger than that lineup. Would bloody hope so anyway. Shame that perhaps Jay Rod will miss out though.
  2. Respect your opinion and I rate Davis highly. His best position by miles is the furthest forward of the mid 3. He is better there than anyone else we have in central midfield as although he isnt a goalscorer he is more creative in his passing and touches around the box than Romeu, Wanyama, JWP etc and also has better acceleration. If JWP starts then often Davis is shifted back, which isn't his strength. If Davis is played further forward then JWP plays deep and must be one of the easiest players for an oppo midfielder to run past, especially someone with a bit of power. Therefore, I feel we are not as well balanced when both play. Is any of that overly ludicrous? I don't think so.
  3. Wanyama, Davis and 1 x place up for grabs at the moment. Always worry about JWP and Davis in the same midfield as neither tackle. Romeu too similar to Wanyama. If Clasie doesn't break into the side eventually then I will be suprised. He was obvious signed to replace Morgan. Would start him this weekend.
  4. Good news re Stek. Hopefully he can play ever game now until Forster is back.
  5. Hopefully Ronald will have some good news on that today, otherwise chances of a result hugely reduced.
  6. No offence intended, but you had to be there to see how much he affected our usually calm defence. The kicks were awful, especially in the context that he had struggled with them since minute one (one of Vardy's best chances in the first half came from a kick that only went about 40 yards). Yes others were also at fault, but he consistently played us into trouble throughout the game, which they probably didnt show on the sketchy bits you saw. Its not about Davis when he just joined or when he was great in Champ/L1. Its about him now and 100% he isn't good enough now to do a job as first reserve.
  7. We don't need to bring anyone in now. We just need to sort it out this next summer and not be in the position we have the last four seasons when people **** themselves as soon as the teamsheet comes out and the no1 isnt playing.
  8. I've been to a few in the past and enjoyed them. I enjoyed watching the one the other night. That doesn't mean it was perfect and you have no right to suggest aspects were poor. Just the same way that fans watching on TV can have an opinion just as those who went to a game can. Just the same that when Saints win there can be some things you weren't totally happy with.
  9. http://www.fstech.co.uk/fst/Ryan_Bertrand_Silicon_Markets.php? Better interest to have than just seeing Drake at the o2 and going to Dubai.
  10. Some right bootlickers on here that can't bare anyone to express an opinion and get very agitated when they do. Bizarre. Its a forum for opinion incase you hadn't noticed.
  11. Last post is absolutely spot on.
  12. Good win and another goal for Sharp tonight.
  13. I do think FF will/may play this season, but only near the end. Its better, as with Jay Rod, not to expect anything though. Anyone saying Stekelenburg is our no 2 keeper this season and Davis #3, Gazza #4 is mad because Forster isnt going to be available for ages and the club brought in Stek to replace FF for this season. So our backup is, for most of the season, going to be **** as it was last year. Thats all.
  14. Looks like Spurs left out Adebayor having only named 23 players so maybe it has changed and you don't now need to name everyone like you used to. PL website doesn't have the latest set of rules that I can find. Although re Forster, no reason not to name him as we have space.
  15. Its pretty clear. If you have eligible players they must be named. You can only not list a player if you already have 25 and then need to decide which players to leave out. 9) Clubs do not have to name a full squad of 25 if they do not have that many contracted players and in this case they can add free agents outside the transfer window. However if they have 25 eligible contracted players, they must be named. Doesn't even matter in the context of our goalkeepers!
  16. Ralph said we are unique in the way we treat people. Hopefully that will be an attribute on Fifa 17.
  17. It is PL rules. See below.
  18. Point 9 below. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/new-premier-league-25-man-squad-3349993 We don't have more than 25 senior players, so had to name Forster whether or not he is/was going to be able to play.
  19. They have to unless you have more than 25 eligible players, which we don't.
  20. Not to one of em so called big claaaabs. The Mirrah says 30m, I say tell em at least 50 for Sadio Man. Source: Terry from Hedge End. Speaker one of the Forum.
  21. LOL, we all agree we have a backup GK issue anyway.
  22. Reed mentioned that we use data a lot in our player recruitment (which we knew) but did think its ironic that we are lauded for our setup whereas an over reliance on data for signings and transfer committees is currently the reason Rodgers was fired and Villa struggling under Sherwood. Don't blame the approach, blame those controlling it.
  23. All in all good to have a forum but limited benefit with poor questions. Didn't really find out anything we didnt know, or anything of real interest. Panel were good but can only comment on what they are asked Overall: 4/10 from me. Highlight: probably Ted from Totton being a fan for 74 years and Ronald being seemingly open to staying beyond his contract if things were right. Lowlight: the first guy incoherently moaning about Sadio Man. Set the tone. Suggestion: involve email/tweet questions for next one to improve quality.
  24. Pretty weak answer from Ralph on away ticket prices. Waffle and patronising instead of an answer.
  25. Save the best til last...Ted from Totton. Top man. Fan for 74 years.
