Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd

I don't think you know the difference between left and right.

Not sure how? Didn't he sign for WBA this afternoon?

Just heard that Maitland-Niles to WBA is a done deal? Don't get that at all? Saints, Leicester, Newcastle in for him and he picks WBA. Must be something to do with guaranteeing him first team football, or a Big Sam brown envelope?

You have to question why these matters are always left until deadline day? There's nothing like leaving it until the 11th hour to sign someone who wasn't your first or second choice. The whole thing smells of "Ok, well he'll have to do".

1-0! I admire your optimism. I can see this being at least 5 or 6. 😞

Exactly this. The season has gone to shit. Carry on like this and we'll struggle to finish above 15th. With teams like Burnley and Newcastle (even Sheff Utd & WBA) picking up points now, the gap we'd built up is being slowly eroded. Relegation form at the moment. Where the f*** are our next points going to come from?

You can blame the ref all you like. The fact is that we're fucking shite in the final 3rd and not much better at the back.

We're looking like we've been found out for what we really are... Average. Good job we accumulated some points early on as we seem to be in free fall at the moment. Based on this form we'll do well to finish above 15th. I honestly can't see where the next points are going to come from at the moment. We're getting nothing tonight. Utter shite. 😡

We'll probably end up with Yedlin from Newcastle. 😉

I get sending him out on loan to give him game time and experience. However, I don't understand the logic in sending a player away when there's a good few injuries and no cover at all for the LB position. I can only assume that they're very confident of landing someone as cover? I just read that Maitland-Niles could be on his way, with RB going the other way. Again, this seems odd as we'd have a relatively inexperienced LB starting, and again no real cover.

I bet you a cheese sandwich that we don't this weekend. 😕

Didn't expect anything tonight after beating them on Saturday. Just couldn't see us beating them twice in 4 days, particularly with KWP and RB missing. Thought we looked very poor tonight. Tired. Lack of any real creativity. Ings doesn't look himself. Adams needs to find his scoring shoes again. Not sure what Walcott gives us at the moment? We desperately need 2 or 3 players back to full fitness. Like others have said. It's hard to see where the next points are going to come from at the moment. 😕 A couple of players on loan would help, but i very much doubt that will happen. There's been a lot of youngsters chucked in at the deep end and they don't really look like the solution.

I bet he leaves for a CL club, gets injured, misses a whole season and ends up back at square one.

They do a range of Retro kits for Spurs. Hopefully we'll see some of the rare shirts available in retro form.

The squad lacks the depth that we require - We know that. I'd hope that we're looking to get a couple of players on loan for the second half of the season, just to cover injuries and suspensions. However, I'm not sure we will. If we're able to get 2 players in then one definitely needs to be a defender. Probably a LB. People keep calling for a consistent winger, but I'm not sure they exist. All wingers seem to drift in and out of games or have a blinding game every 1 in 4. I think we need something different up front. I'm surprised they've not stuck Long out on loan to a Championship club and looked for someone on loan to do a job for the remainder of the season. It's great to see the youngsters getting a start but we seem to have a bit of a gap, in that they don't look quite ready. Give it a couple of seasons and they'll probably be regular starters, but they've been thrown in at the deep end this season due to a lack of depth in the squad, which is why we just need a couple of more experienced loans to see us through.

Exactly. VAR the talking point once again. It's ruining the game. Football matches should not be decided in that way. Very harsh.

That's exactly it. My e-mails to the club shop to ask the question haven't been replied to. The kit fiasco continues...

A valid point. I guess we'll have to wait and see. Based upon what I've seen of the two players so far this season, it's looking like we've come out of it with the worse deal, but it's early days.

Press raving about Reed. Still think we were mad to let him go and then spend £11m on a replacement. https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2020/12/01/give-him-the-armband-did-southampton-sell-the-new-hojbjerg-for-just-8m/

Site is saying that the shirt with the new sponsor is available to pre-order. Does anybody know when these are likely to start shipping?

I only got 5/1 at half time. I just had a gut feeling we wouldn't hold out for the win. I think we'll lose against Brighton. ☹️

That's a fair comment. As a I said to a work colleague today, with his past history it would be a miracle if he didn't suffer some kind of recurrence at some point. Let's just hope it's at some point well into the future.

Funny how things can change. At the start of the year there were people on here saying that he should never be seen in a Saints shirt again. Good to see that he's proving his doubters wrong.

Didn't Stephens play as a CDM against Wolves in the cup last season. Had a mare if I remember correctly.

I placed an order on Oct 4th. It said delivery time was 3-5 days. Just checked my order status and it says 'Unknown'. Honestly, can this club to anything right? 😂
