Farking Mane, great player just wished he'd gone to a big team
-
JWP needs to find a sport where dead ball skills (not goals as he has hardly any for the amount of free kicks he takes) are rated highly. Maybe he should transition into a punter for American Football.

I'm frustrated more than normal about today and this season as we had quite a few clear cut chances to score winning goals against watford/sunderland and arsenal and our strikers have ****ing clogs on their feet. We could of started the season so much better but the manager probably has to take the blame for saying we have the players for the system, who did Nice have upfront last season ? Edit - Answered my own question Ben Arfa scored 17 and assisted 6 last season in the pivot role but Germain (now plays for Monaco) score 14 and assisted 6 in CF role

Just gone on KUMB forum, I feel better

Wonder if claude still thinks we have the players for his system. From my uneducated view I think that Davis is ineffective in it and at 31 might be the one to make way for Sofaine, JWP offers nothing, Tadic and Hojberg are our best players at present, we have no forwards who can pull the trigger they tend to over ellaborate rather than shoot (we already have Tadic for that). Defensively Cedric has regressed to the level that I want Cuco in the team or Yann instead, in hindsight Jose 2 Pens Fonte has also started sh*t, Virgil seems frustrated at the players in front of him (frustrated in a sense that the players in front of him don't know how to play the diamond), I'm middle of the road on Romeu, he played well today but sh*t others. Basically all in all I don't know what to think, am p*ssed off at refs but I am more p*ssed off our forwards need 5 chances to score, they have been given so many chances over the last 4 games and if missing the goal counted as points we'd be top of the league. I'd also like to see a killer from the Under 23 on the bench (omuloua or hower you spell it - apologies)

We've got sh*t strikers, great inside forwards but sh*t strikers. Austin is the one exception but he's a goal hanger
-
We could of been Stoke and West Ham today, perspective.
-
Wenger and Robert Madley finally catch up post match
-
I also get the feeling now with Fraser that I got with Stek and Gazza over the last few seasons, if they hit the target it usually goes in. I knew he would never save that penalty, thats 2 pens to Fonte in 3 games !!! bring back Yoshida

Comment to poster name... Nice

we've got plenty of fancy dans who can lose the ball or slow up play but we have no killers..... Expect a killer to appear now

Can't see graph what's it say ?

Think Fonte needs to
-
as are Juventus and Dortmund... If only people read more about the diamond the would realise it isn't really massively hard to implement, maybe the issue is that we just have some players who are struggling to learn it ie the UK ones.

Saints Transfers Thread - Deadline Day
Convict Colony replied to Saint Charlie's topic in The Saints
I like Heisenberg he was my first ever friend request as Glasgow Saint and those colours don't run. -
I sometimes struggle with the genuine bit after some games or certain news is released. Anyway back on Boufal watch here in Morocco all the waiters and bar staff are in agreement that Boufal is mustard and he will definitely go to the Afcon if he is fit. The transfer has been all bet the news here and everyone is stoked so that must be a good thing. The only upside to the Afcon is they think their team is generally **** and won't be in long Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sounds like he has been following the pardew approach to southampton integration

Don't know really what to think. All 3 games we have looked good in patches and cr*p in others. Agree that the final quality isn't there at the moment, it sort of feels that the players just can't get their head around the final 3rd positions. 3 games and we have given away 2 penalties, Jose looked average, cedric has looked average. Though Pierre, Virg and Davis looked good today, thought all of our forwards wanted it today and I'll be interested in the total shots. Off to speak to the bar staff of Marrakech now to get their opinion on Boufal and if he will be called up to the afcon. 2 draws and 1 loss, I've seen worst starts.
